Compact color measurement device with up to 20 measurement indicators

ColorTector Alpha

ColorTector Pro is a color measurement device that significantly differs from previous models. Thanks to its powerful configuration, it enables professional color measurement. The wireless connection to Android and iOS devices greatly expands its range of applications. It can be used in the fields of printing, coatings, textiles, and more, offering functions for color difference measurement as well as color detection and color search.

Properties

A colorimeter and a spectrophotometer:

Uses the internationally recognized D/8 standard (diffuse illumination by integrating sphere, 8° viewing angle) as well as SCI illumination and observation conditions for more accurate measurements.
Utilizes a spectral sensor that provides spectral data that goes beyond the performance of a conventional colorimeter and is comparable to a spectrophotometer.
Outputs color data such as L*a*b*, L*Ch, RGB, and Hex under D65 and D50 light sources.
Offers over 20 measurement indicators, including whiteness, yellowness, ColorStrength, color fastness, and opacity, as well as 26 evaluation light sources.
Indicates directly on the screen with red and green backgrounds whether the measured sample is outside or within tolerances, significantly facilitating quality control.

Portable, extensive color database:

Wireless Bluetooth connection to the mobile app allows the creation of a color database and the input of color information for printing, coatings, textiles, and more.
No need to carry heavy color sample cards. The ColorTector Pro can find the nearest color in multiple color databases anytime and anywhere.
Application of artificial intelligence for precise color recognition.

Automatic calibration:

Instant color measurement without data errors thanks to automatic calibration when the device is turned on.
Automatic reminder in the app for calibration during prolonged use of the device.
Manual calibration and calibration interval settings are also possible via the app.

Usable individually:

1.14-inch IPS display provides color difference information.
The device can store data and synchronize with the app at any time.

Cloud database for easier uploading and retrieval:

Offers an extensive color database with sample colors that can be used for color recognition, for example.
Users can upload their created color databases to the cloud to share them with multiple devices and facilitate work.
Companies can create, manage, and share their own color databases and color formulas in the cloud with other users via a unique invitation code.
