- Cloud storage supports 15,000 test sample data entries.
- Ergonomic design with a large touchscreen for easy viewing.
- Strategically positioned measurement buttons to accommodate different usage habits.
- Dual positioning system (stabilising plate and camera viewfinder) allows clear observation of the measurement area.
- Cross-platform compatability.
- Non-contact automatic white calibration ensures repeatable and accurate data.
- Grade 1 metrology certification is guarenteed, with each instrument factory-verified and measurement data traceable to national metrology institutes, ensuring authoritative and reliable test results.
- Adheres to international standards, including ASTM, CIE, and ISO.
- Spectrophotometer calibration service available.
Industry applications include: Ceramics, printing, and textiles.
