Innosen’s new unified ecosystem for canmakers

Innosen has officially launched a trio of interconnected solutions designed to bring unprecedented precision and digital intelligence to the metal packaging floor. Dubbed the “Great Trinity,” the release features the IS860 CoatPro, the IS810 EnamelPro, and the Innolytix IS1100 data management software.

This integrated suite represents a shift from isolated testing to a unified quality assurance ecosystem, offering manufacturers a seamless loop between measurement and actionable intelligence.

1. IS860 CoatPro: Redefining Thickness Measurement

The IS860 CoatPro utilises advanced capacitance technology to deliver real-time lacquer thickness readings with a linearity of <1%. Designed for the harsh environments of the plant floor, it features an IP65-rated powder-coated stainless-steel housing and a 7-inch touchscreen supplemented by a glove-friendly jog wheel.

  • Versatility: Compatible with Innosen’s full probe range for flat sheets, formed cans, tubes, and aerosols.
  • Capacity: On-board storage for 100,000 readings.
  • Zero Downtime: Reinvented onsite annual calibration ensures the unit stays on the line, not in a shipping crate.

2. IS810 EnamelPro: Integrity Testing with “Eyes”

The IS810 EnamelPro moves beyond simple pass/fail metrics. While it assesses the integrity of inner and outer coatings on everything from ends to aerosols, its standout feature is reverse-voltage defect localization. This allows operators to pinpoint exactly where a coating has failed, rather than just knowing that it has.

  • Pre-Test Verification: Automatic electrolyte level monitoring and contact verification ensure test validity before the cycle begins.
  • Power & Compliance: Adjustable 2–30 V output, fully compliant with EN 15384-1 and EN 15384-2 standards.
  • Shared Architecture: Mirrors the CoatPro’s 7-inch display, IP65 housing, and triple connectivity (RS485, Ethernet, and USB-C).

3. Innolytix IS1100: The Intelligence Hub

Acting as the “brain” of the operation, the Innolytix IS1100 is a data collection platform that bridges the gap between the gauge and the boardroom. It captures real-time data from both the CoatPro and EnamelPro, transforming raw numbers into visual narratives.

  • Visual Analytics: Live dashboards feature line graphs for trend tracking and heat maps to surface production anomalies instantly.
  • Multi-User Access: Supports up to 99 user profiles per license.
  • Connectivity: Streams data across the plant, ensuring that every shift and every decision is backed by verified, real-time measurements.

A New Standard for Canmaking

The synergy of these three tools aims to eliminate the guesswork that often plagues high-speed coating lines. By combining hardware precision with software-driven insights, Innosen is providing a roadmap for more efficient, less wasteful production.

“These first-of-their-kind innovations redefine canmaking excellence,” says Luc Nelen, President at Innosen. “The IS860 CoatPro and IS810 EnamelPro ensure unmatched precision in coating quality, while the Innolytix IS1100 transforms data into decisions—together, they’re unrivalled.”

For metal packagers looking to modernize their QA protocols, the “Great Trinity” offers a robust, future-proof solution to the age-old challenge of coating consistency.
