Plastic Pellet Color Measurement

Extruded plastic compounds cut into smaller pieces and later be used in further plastic-forming processes such as extrusion or injection molding, pellets are a key component to virtually all plastic manufacturing processes. And the first step in ensuring the consistency of the final color of any plastic product is controlling
the color of the compound itself.
