In the ever-evolving landscape of the textile industry, automation and precision are no longer optional— they’re essential. As production demands increase and quality standards rise, laboratories and manufacturers are turning to advanced technologies to ensure efficiency, consistency, and sustainability in their processes. Color Service, global leader in the design and production of automatic dosing systems for powder and liquid products, presents COLOR DYEING and SMP at ITMA ASIA + CITME 2025, taking place in Singapore from October 28 to 31.
“With COLOR DYEING and SMP, Color Service continues to lead the way in laboratory automation”, says Settimo Barausse, Sales Manger at Color Service. “These systems not only enhance dyeing quality and reproducibility but also reduce manual operations, minimize errors, and increase overall lab efficiency”.
Experience Automation at ITMA
At ITMA ASIA + CITME 2025, Color Service welcomes industry professionals from all over the world to experience these cutting-edge technologies first-hand. Visiting Color Service in Hall 8 – booth C304, it is possible to watch and learn how automation can transform your lab into a more efficient, accurate, and innovative workspace.
SMP is a fully automated system for preparing and dispensing dye solutions with unmatched precision and repeatability. At the heart of the system are independent conic-bottom dissolvers, capable of creating perfect dye solutions with concentrations up to 80 g/l. These dissolvers ensure optimal dissolution, even for challenging dye powders.
The system allows for continuous operation, preparing fresh solutions while simultaneously pipetting into dyeing vessels. This parallel functionality saves valuable time and increases lab throughput. Solutions are automatically checked for freshness, even overnight, so there’s no need for manual supervision. One of SMP’s standout features is its self-cleaning bottles. Automatic washing cycles eliminate contamination and preserve solution purity, ensuring reliable and repeatable dyeing results every time.
The system also enables automatic chemical addition, such as acids or dispersing agents, with high accuracy, completely removing the need for manual dosing. SMP combines advanced automation with user-friendly design, making it an essential tool for laboratories that require consistent, clean, and high- quality solutions for dyeing processes.
Modular Precision Dyeing System
COLOR DYEING is an innovative modular system designed for high-precision dyeing in lab environments. It supports both high and low temperature dyeing, making it ideal for natural, synthetic, or blended fibers. The system operates in modular groups of 5 dyeing units, offering excellent flexibility and scalability. Each unit functions independently, with its own thermal insulation, safety thermostat, and autonomous dyeing cycle. This means multiple dyeings can be run in parallel—each with its own parameters—without interference.
The system handles dyebath volumes from 200 cc to 600 cc, and reaches a maximum temperature of 135°C, allowing for a wide range of dyeing conditions. Fast and uniform heating and cooling are guaranteed by the automatic indirect water cooling system, controlled by an integrated solenoid valve. Inside each unit, the material holder basket is made of AISI 316 stainless steel and features a magnetic drive rotation system, eliminating mechanical seals. This ensures both longevity and ease of maintenance while maintaining optimal agitation during dyeing.
