Online Color Difference SpectroPhotoMeter

Online color difference spectrophotometers measure the surface color data of objects in real-time through spectral analysis, utilizing 45°/0° or diffuse reflectance geometry to capture reflectance in the visible light spectrum. They automatically calculate the ΔE color difference by comparing it with standard color values. These instruments are used for continuous monitoring of color consistency in production lines for coatings and plastic coil materials to prevent batch color variations.
Selection
When selecting, confirm the installation space on the production line and the measurement distance, and match the specular reflection inclusion/exclusion mode corresponding to the material of the measured object (metal/fabric). Verify that the spectrometer's wavelength range must cover 400-700nm, with a repeatability accuracy of ≤0.08 ΔE. It must support ISO/GB standard color spaces, and the protection rating should be suitable for on-site dust environments.
