4.Intelligent base, automatic calibration
It is equipped with intelligent calibration base, can carry out automatic white board calibration, professional grade standard white board reflectivity R% ≥95% , good surface uniformity, high stability, can obtain repeated accurate data.
5.New fashion appearance design based on ergonomics
The hand-held position and the position of the measuring button are carefully designed to meet different holding habits, smooth and fine surface, derived from the professional appearance treatment technology.
6.Excellent interstation and repeatability
The repeatability ΔE * ab ≤0.05, the Inter-instrument Error ΔE * AB ≤0.4 data is stable and reliable, which ensures the consistency of the data measured by multiple devices, and can be used for color matching and accurate color transfer.
7.Color management software
The array spectrocolorimeter ST10 is equipped with SQCX software, which is suitable for quality monitoring and color data management in various industries. The user's color management data, compare color differences, generate test reports, provide a variety of color space measurement data, customized customer color management.
