Multi-Angle Spectrophotometer CM-M6

Portable Multi-Angle Spectrophotometer With 45° Illumination with 6 Aspecular Viewing Angles (-15° , 15° , 25° , 45° , 75° , & 115° )
Konica Minolta Spectrophotometer CM-M6 is a multi-angle portable spectrophotometer is specially designed to provide fast and accurate measurement of metallic, pearlescent and effect paints for automotive exterior. It uses a patented double path illumination system with 45° illumination with 6 aspecular viewing angles as described in ASTM E2194 or DIN 5033-7 from two sides, it provides stable and accurate results even on curved surfaces (R=300 radius).
The CM-M6 features six different angles of measurement, ranging from 15 to 110 degrees, which allows for a comprehensive evaluation of the appearance of a given sample. It is also equipped with an advanced optical system that minimizes the effects of gloss, texture, and other surface characteristics that can affect color measurement accuracy. This makes it a valuable tool for industries such as automotive, cosmetics, and plastics, where color accuracy and consistency are critical.
The Konica Minolta Multi-Angle Spectrophotometer CM-M6 is a state-of-the-art device that can measure the color and appearance of a variety of surfaces and materials. It uses multiple angles of illumination and observation to capture information about the color and texture of a surface, providing a comprehensive analysis of its appearance.
The CM-M6 is designed to be versatile and easy to use, with a user-friendly interface that allows operators to quickly and accurately measure a wide range of materials. It can measure both the color and gloss of a surface, making it particularly useful for applications where appearance is critical, such as automotive coatings, plastics, and packaging.
Some of the key features of the CM-M6 include:
Multiple angle measurement: The CM-M6 uses up to six angles of illumination and observation to capture a comprehensive picture of a surface’s appearance.
High accuracy: The device has a high level of accuracy and repeatability, ensuring consistent and reliable measurements.
Wide range of applications: The CM-M6 can be used to measure the color and appearance of a wide range of materials, including metallic and pearlescent finishes.
User-friendly interface: The device is designed to be easy to use, with a simple and intuitive interface that allows operators to quickly set up and run measurements.
Overall, the Konica Minolta Multi-Angle Spectrophotometer CM-M6 is a powerful and versatile instrument that can help ensure quality and consistency in a wide range of manufacturing and production processes. The CM-M6 comes with high resolution back-illuminated color display that is easy to read under low ambient lighting condition. With a new ergonomic designed for easy handling and positioning, the CM-M6 is ideal for repeated use over long periods of time on the production line.
