    ChromatoMeter

    Overview
    A colorimeter quantifies color by measuring the tristimulus values of light reflected or transmitted from an object, calculating color coordinates and color differences. It is used for quality control in industries such as coatings and plastics to ensure consistent product color.
    Selection
    When selecting a colorimeter, factors such as measurement geometry, light source type, measurement aperture, and repeatability accuracy must be considered. It is essential to match industry standards, ensure the instrument is compatible with the sample shape and surface characteristics, and meet the requirements for daily testing needs.
