Skip-Line, Graco Launch ACCU-BEAD Sensor for Striping Precision

In a new partnership, Skip-Line® and Graco® have introduced the new ACCU-BEAD™ Flow Sensor, transforming reflective bead application in road striping operations. The ACCU-BEAD Flow Sensor eliminates the need for traditional load cells by providing real-time monitoring of glass bead flow rates. Integrated seamlessly with Skip-Line’s DL-18 Data Logger and the Spec-Rite Online platform, the system offers contractors complete visibility and control over their road marking materials and application processes.

With ACCU-BEAD, operators can monitor and adjust bead flow rates for each individual gun. This capability ensures that application rates precisely align with specifications, significantly reducing the need for costly rework and enhancing compliance with road safety regulations, according to the manufacturers.

Key Advantages of the ACCU-BEAD System:

• Real-Time Data Monitoring: Tracks and adjusts bead flow rates, tank levels and

material usage to provide immediate feedback for operational adjustments.

• Enhanced Spec Compliance: Monitors application rates to meet regulatory standards.
• Seamless Integration: Data collected by the ACCU-BEAD sensors is organized and

made accessible through the Spec-Rite Online platform, enabling detailed

performance analysis and reporting.
