Surface Chroma Meter

The surface colorimeter calculates the color difference from a standard sample by measuring the tristimulus values of the light reflected from an object. It is used for color quality control of products such as coatings and plastics to ensure color consistency between batches.
Selection
When selecting, consider matching the measurement aperture to the sample size, choose an instrument that includes the required color space, confirm repeatability metrics, and evaluate the instrument's portability and software functionality to align with the actual testing process.
