Fast Spectrophotometric Color-Meters CMS-35SP and CMS-35FS

CMS-35SP
Hi-leveled optical design and quality control enable improved repeatability of the measuring data and measurement stability. It helps color management in various fields from research/development to the manufacturing. CMS-35SP is also ideal for use in computerized color matching systems, as it can be configured to share data among multiple business offices.

CMS-35FS
Fixed type sensor can make direct measurements of the sample under difficult geometries and configurations. The use of an exchangeable flexible sensor heads allows measurement for the micro spaced, uneven surfaced samples. Accurate positioning measurement is available by using an optional stand.

Fast Spectrophotometric Transmittance Meter DOT-3C

The instrument is designed for measuring diffuse transmittance, equipped with an integrating sphere with diffuse illumination. It provides precise and stable measurements, especially in the transmittance measurement for the light diffusible objects and specimen which are being transparent, translucent or with concavo-convex, and even lenses. The double-beam mechanism offers a long stability of the performance, and a specimen table allows easy placement of samples. The DOT-3C can measure very thick samples (max 30mm), making it ideal for the measurement of the transmitted color for the lenses of spectacles.

Gloss Meter GM-26PRO, GM-26PRO/Auto

GM-26PRO is a specular gloss meter for 20° & 60° and designed to conform with ISO, ASTM or JIS, local and overseas standards.

Compact design, in which a sensor and a display are combined into one unit with high accuracy and excellent reliability, could solve the polarizing properties of the light source. This is priced below our conventional model of GM-26D. Easy measurement with simple set up of the sample, makes improved and effective operation.

The newly developed GM-26PRO/AUTO can offer easy operation at the touch of a button with output functions for the calibration, average measurement or measuring values.

Gloss Meter GM-3D

The measurement with changeable angle is available from 20 ° to ?@85° furthermore, the color measurement, even for reference value, also can be possible by attached filters of tristimulus values.

Portable GlossMeters GMX-102, GMX-203

Portable shoulder type instruments, conforming with the international standards of JIS or ASTM etc., are lighter than the conventional products. Since the power supply uses a built-in chargeable battery allowing both for the alternating/direct currents, usage for indoor or outdoor is acceptable.

Type 102 has excellent mobilization with cordless system, exclusively being used for 60° measurement.

Type 203 is available for the selection at each measuring angles of 60°, 20°, 75°, and has unrivaled measurement accuracy and reliability.

Variable GlossMeter RM-3D

The optical system is equipped with the incident and receiving angles of 45°. This portable reflectance instrument can be powered by AC or DC. The sensor unit can be operated by one hand with handle switch type that makes on-the-spot measurement easier. The instrument can measure not only the flat mirror but the curved mirror with a radius more than 100mm, almost in no errors. Apart from the front coated mirror, the thick rear coated mirror can be measured by changing an adaptor for the measurement window.

GR-4/GR-2 On-Line Gloss Monitor

Papers or plastics, running on the continuous production line, can be measured and displayed without touching the surface gloss of the products.

In the production process, speedy quality control is available. GR-4 is newly developed for automatic calibration. Automatic calibration is performed on the inner standard plate by an air cylinder that moves an optical circuit board.

On-Line ColorMonitor CMTS-5000

The CMTS-5000 is a color management monitoring instrument that enables long term stable monitoring at the coloring process of the continuous production line for papers, steel plates and films etc. Spectral reflectance of the products is processed and displayed on the computer.

On the monitor, the spectral distribution graph, color difference values or color difference graphs are displayed for easy comprehension, and the outer alert works in case of process failure. The instrument consists of the light source, sensor and receptor, designed to be robust against vibration or temperature at the manufacturing site. Furthermore, our original system for the spectral, receptor, double beam and perfect auto-calibration provides excellent reliability.

On-Line ColorMonitor CMTS-5000T

  The CMTS-5000T is designed for continuous measurement of transmitted color during the production process of the films or sheets. The computer controller monitors for the manufacturing conditions in user-friendly manner. The outer alert output works if the standard values exceed a preset, fixed range. The calibration of the transmission color measurement is automatic, using an air cylinder.

The measurement data are displayed with color difference values, CIELAB values, transmittance, polarized color decision values, or spectral curved lines, and an observation system has been established by the average data recording every one minute. The system structure is divided into three mechanisms of light source, receptor (equipped with air conditioner), color measurement head (scanner type), and the adoption of individual high airtight structure allows to minimize the error operation caused by powder dust or temperature at the manufacturing site. The color measurement system matches to all sorts of the manufacturing site by adoption of the light guide system (optical fiber).
