Color and Gloss in one. Total Appearance Control.
The spectro-guide simultaneously measures color and gloss. Thus, the cause of a visual mismatch can be clearly defined.
- Color and 60° gloss are displayed at the same time
- In compliance with international specifications
- Tolerances for color and gloss allow quick pass/fail decisions

spectro-guide S
|
 |
Increased acuracy for 60° gloss in the low gloss range (0-10 GU) - Besides the tougher accuracy, the S-type units have the same features as the regular instruments and come with the same accessories. Thus, no additional demo unit is necessary for your presentations. There are different certificates for the S-units which document the tighter specifications. In addition, there will be special checking standards offered with a low gloss tile for the 60° geometry.
|
- Color and 60° gloss in one unit
- Stable, long-term calibration
- Highly repearable results, even on textured surfaces independent of measuring direction
- Long lasting AA batteries
- 10 year warranty on the light source
- Easy to use, even for color beginners
- Easy-link for direct transfer to Excel®
- 10 nm resolution for precise readinfs on brillant and dark colors
