Types of Textile Color Measurement Instruments

We have a selection of advanced color measurement tools that will help your business improve the quality and speed of your manufacturing process. Several of our color measurement instruments are ideal for different types of textiles, including camouflage, denim, HiVis safety apparel, and automotive textiles.

MiniScan EZ 4500

The MiniScan EZ 4500 is an excellent choice for automotive upholsteries and carpet as well as camouflage. It uses 45°/0° geometry to measure color the way the human eye sees color, and its compact design is perfect to take on the go.

The onboard software of this device includes most major industrial reflectance color scales and indices, such as Hunter L,a,b and CIE L*a*b*. It also stores up to 800 sample measurements and 100 standards and can average up to 20 sample readings.

UltraScan PRO

The UltraScan PRO uses diffuse d/8° geometry to measure the full spectral range in a matter of seconds. This fast, reliable performance makes it ideal for challenging applications.

UltraScan PRO measures transmitted and reflected color as well as transmission haze, spectral transmittance and spectral reflectance. It meets all ASTM, CIE and USP color measurement guidelines.

The UltraScan PRO is an excellent choice for camouflage color measurement.

Agera

Perfect for automotive carpet, upholsteries and headliners as well as denim fabric and rope, the Agera measures color and UV content with an extra-large sample port and includes a five-megapixel camera for capturing images and facilitating sample positioning.

The 0°/45°c circumferential geometry provides precise and consistent color results. Embedded with EasyMatch Essentials Quality Control software, Agera includes essential color scales and indices such as CIE L*a*b*, CIE LCh and Hunter L,a,b.

SpectraTrend HT

Our SpectraTrend HT instrument provides highly accurate, non-contact color and shade measurements. It also supplies continuous color data, which makes it an ideal choice to use during production runs in order to identify and correct color variations as soon as possible. This ability to make changes in real-time reduces waste and its associated costs. It also makes it much less likely that you'll ship products made from defective dye lots to customers.

The SpectraTrend HT includes software that features Hunter L,a,b, CIE LCh, Shade Number and other standard color scales and indices.
