Automatic coloriMeter color difference Meter

The automatic colorimeter measures color by illuminating the sample with a built-in light source. The sensor captures the reflected light, analyzes the spectral data, and calculates color coordinates and color difference values. It is used to inspect product color consistency and control production quality in industries such as coatings and plastics.
Selection
When selecting, consider matching the measurement aperture to the sample size, ensure the instrument's repeatability is stable, and maintain compatibility with existing color standards. Choose the appropriate optical structure based on the material's surface characteristics to ensure data consistency with visual assessment.
