FAQs About ST700D Spectrophotometer

A benchtop spectrophotometer is not universally better—it outperforms portable units in precision and lab testing, while portable models win for on-site flexibility. Which one is better depends entirely on your testing scenarios, accuracy requirements and workflow.


Benchtop Spectrophotometer Advantages

  • Higher measurement accuracy & repeatability, excellent inter-instrument agreement

  • Supports full-spectrum analysis, more geometric optical designs

  • Larger testing aperture, compatible with curved, textured and bulk samples

  • Ideal for laboratory QC, R&D, formula matching and standard color calibration

  • Stable performance, less affected by external light and environment


Portable Spectrophotometer Advantages

  • Compact, lightweight, test anywhere anytime (production line, warehouse, on-site inspection)

  • Fast one-click measurement, no fixed power and lab space required

  • Perfect for incoming material inspection, on-line production spot check, field color comparison

  • Lower cost and easier to operate for frontline workers


Which One Should You Choose?


Choose benchtop if you need:

Lab R&D, high-precision color grading, standard sample database establishment, strict quality control for cosmetics, plastics, textiles and food.


Choose portable if you need:

On-site rapid detection, production line mobile sampling, outdoor and on-location color measurement.


Always a pre-production sample before mass production; Always final Inspection before shipment; 

SCI&SCE are two method in the color measurement. SCI means Specular Component Include,SCE means Specular Component Exclude.

Under the method of SCE, only test diffuse refection and exclude specular reflection. In that way, the test result is similar to object color was observed by human eyes.

Under the method SCI, both the diffuse refection and specular reflection will be included. In that way, the value about the color is more objective. It will not effect by the environment condition.

When we choose the instrument, those elements should be taking into consideration.

  • Economical QC: NS810

All measure color consistency, transmittance, haze & coating uniformity for glass quality grading.


A spectrophotometer and colorimeter are certain instruments used by scientists to measure color by quantifying reflected or transmitted light. The results are presented in color spaces, such as L*a*b*, RGB, or XYZ. This enables the accuracy of comparison and tracking of the changes in color in chemical or material research.
