All Instruments

HunterLab offers a range of portable, bench and on-line systems to meet your measurement needs.

Use a portable instrument if you need to measure color outside the laboratory, measure samples on the plant production floor, in storage areas, shipping departments or virtually anywhere that is convenient.

Bench

Bench color measurement systems offer the ultimate in sample measurement precision and versatility. Whether your product is large or small, liquid or solid, powder or flake, smooth or textured, one of our bench systems will provide the best solution to your sample measurement needs.

On-Line

On-line systems provide continuous, real-time measurement of your product on a process line. This allows you to respond to product color changes when they happen, as they happen. HunterLab on-line instruments make real-time color measurements of your product, without contact or intrusion, as it is being produced.

Software

System software gives the ability to process, display, analyze and report color measurement results for HunterLab portable, bench and on-line instruments.

Application Note

USP and EP Visual Color Standards

The USP and EP Color Standards are visual color standards, intended to improve color communication between sites by defining a sample color as being close to physical liquid standard ("near USP F"; "near EP Y2") rather than using words ("light yellow"). Read Vol. 20, No. 8 (PDF)
