Features

The BYK-mac i objectively measures color under different viewing angles as well as sparkle and graininess. Additionally, it detects and quantifies fluorescent light in the visible range.
 

  • Total color impression:
    • ­5-angle color measurement for light/dark travel evaluation:
      15° / 25° / 45° / 75° / 110°
    • Additional color measurement behind the gloss for color flop analysis: -15°
    • ­Sparkle and graininess measurement for flake characterization
  • Detection and quantification of fluorescent light excited in the visible range (Intensity Emission)
  • Excellent agreement between instruments allows use of digital standards among the supply chain
  • Stable, long-term calibration – needed only every three months
  • Temperature independent results (10 – 40° C) – without calibration
  • Stable positioning due to 4 trigger pins on bottom plate – operator influence minimized
  • 10 year warranty on LED light source – no lamp changes needed
