Spectrodensitometer is an instrument used in industries like printing and photography to measure color and CMYK density characteristics of materials. These devices operate on the principle of spectrophotometry, which involves measuring the intensity of light at various wavelengths to determine the spectral characteristics of a sample. It combines spectrophotometry and densitometry, enabling precise analysis of spectral reflectance/transmittance and ink density. It helps in color matching, quality control, calibration, and profiling, ensuring consistent and accurate color reproduction across different substrates and printing devices.
Unlike traditional densitometers that measure only optical density, Spectrodensitometer measures both the color characteristics and optical density of the CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black) inks on a printed substrate. Spectrodensitometer provides a comprehensive analysis of color by breaking it down into its spectral components. This dual functionality makes them invaluable tools in print industry where color accuracy is paramount.
3nh Spectrodensitometer
3nh offers two distinct models of spectrodensitometers (YD5010 & YD5050), each tailored to meet specific requirements of the users. These models differ in various technical aspects, including repeatability, illuminants, color spaces, and storage capabilities etc. Here’s an overview of the specifications of both models.
