Home > Engineering > Plane Spectrophotometric Measuring Equipment
Using an image spectroscope, the plane spectrophotometric measuring equipment captures spectral images by moving printed matter or a sample that has been placed on a table. It then calculates color based on the captured spectral data for display on a CRT monitor either as an RGB color image or as a spectrum of a selected area within the image.
Features
- Capable of measuring the plane spectrum of an A4-sized object within 70 seconds.
