Lechler MAP Paint Colour Management STOPPANI: a module designed to browse Lechler's world of Colours and Products

Lechler Map® 4 Paint Colour Management YACHTING is identified as an essential tool for body shops, the first software to optimise the performance and profitability of distributors and users.

The name Lechler MAP® and the logo effectively and immediately represent the goal of this software: to offer all the necessary information to navigate safely and quickly in the increasingly vast and complex world of colour and Lechler Products.

Lechler Map® 4 is in fact today able to manage the complexity of Lechler know-how formed by 5 businesses, for about 300 product ranges and more than one million different colour points, in a modular way.

What does it mean? Being integrated with My Lechler, the new portal dedicated to digital services aimed at our customers, when accessing, Lechler Map® 4 will self-configure by showing only the business or businesses for which the user has been profiled in our system.

Each business area is different from the other, and is designed on the basis of the specific features of the business itself, starting from the user interface, up to the modularity of the products and formulas database, which guarantees simpler research, but above all the possibility of performing selective updates.

Here follow some functions to be highlighted:

Formulas search

It allows you to identify the colour by acting by successive filters, in order to gradually narrow down the search field. In a single box it is possible to enter the Manufacturer, Colour Code, Colour Collection, Colour Effect (matt, metallic…) and Colour Classification (white, red, orange…)

Display of the colour chip concerning each colour code
In order to simplify their identification, when the available information is not sufficient to successfully discriminate which is the corresponding colour formula.

Dosage of formulas

It is now possible to dose formulas with more binders (resins) contained in the same product, without having to calculate specific single percentages from a virtual binder

As well as being able to easily decide whether to use the STANDARD formulation of a colour or its variant with HIGH OPACITY.

Moreover, it is possible to manage mixtures of up to 3 components (hardener, thinner and additive), determining the quantity of each component and above all the possibility of defining in advance the quantity of the ready-to-use product to be produced.

Management of work sheets

with which it is possible to prepare the entire repair painting process using standard products and Lechler formulas or customised by the customer.

Management of the paints warehouse,

through the barcode shown on the package label, with the possibility of managing the minimum stocks desired for each product, and an alert system that warns of the presence of products under stock or unavailable before starting dosing the chosen formula.

Services available via internet connection:

Technical or Safety Data Sheets that can be viewed (and downloaded for printing) directly from the colour formula page

Software updates (programme) highlighted automatically when starting Lechler Map 4 with a message (pop-up) on screen

Formula database update allows you to check the update status of each product range and the update level available on the central Lechler server.

If necessary, Lechler MAP® 4 allows you to update the formulas of a single product range without launching the complete update of the business, significantly reducing the time required to complete the operation, as well as scheduling the verification and automatic update at each starting of Lechler Map® 4.
