spectro-guide / color guide
Color and gloss measurement for basic applications
Visual colour sampling is subjective and depends on the environmental conditions. The spectro-guide and colour guide are easy-to-use instruments to objectively measure colour and gloss against physical standards and document the results in EXCEL. The S family has improved technical performance for gloss (< 10 GU), ideal for low gloss applications.
- Colour and 60° gloss measurement in one instrument
- Easy handling due to defined keys for standard and sample measurement
- Innovative LED technology ensures long-term and temperature-stable measurement results
- Stable calibration - only necessary every three months
- Low maintenance
- Data transfer to easy-link for simple documentation in EXCEL
spectro-guide 45/0 gloss (S)
- 45/0 Measuring geometry
- Complete appearance control - colour and gloss in one unit
- Highly repeatable results on textured surfaces thanks to patented true circumferential illumination
- S-version: Improved technical performance for 60° gloss < 10 GU
spectro-guide sphere gloss (S)
- d/8 measurement geometry spin (gloss included)
- Complete appearance control - colour and gloss in one unit
- Highly repeatable results on textured surfaces thanks to diffuse sphere illumination
- S-version: Improved technical performance for 60° gloss < 10 GU
color-guide 45/0
- 45/0 measurement area:
- 4 mm aperture for small parts
- 20 mm glass sealed aperture for granular and powdery material
Standards
- Color: ASTM D 2244, E 308, E 1164 / DIN 5033, 5036, 6174 / DIN EN ISO 11664
- Gloss: ASTM D 523, D 2457 / DIN 67530 / ISO 2813, 7668
easy-link Software
Features / Equipment:
- Easy and direct data transfer from the spectro-photometer to predefined color control templates
- CIELab graph to show at one glance whether all parts are within specification
- Trend graph to monitor process changes over time
- CIELab graph for three illuminants
- Easy standard management:
- Manual entry of spectral data if the physical standard is not longer available
- Standard data back-up for download to the spectrophotometer - Auto tolerancing function for assistance in setting up Pass/Fail limits
spectro2go

- Colour and 60° gloss measurement in one instrument
- available in 45/0 geometry or as spherical spectrophotometer (d/8)
- Interchange of digital standards thanks to excellent instrument matching
- Balanced design with large, colour touch screen
- External test and calibration standards
- Live preview of the measurement spot with integrated camera
- Intelligent high-tech LED illumination with outstanding short-, long-term and temperature stability
- 10-year warranty on the LEDs - no lamp replacement necessary
- Professional data analysis with smart-chart combined with WiFi or USB connection
spectro2guide
spectro2guide represents the next step in the evolution of colour measurement. The device combines a spectrophotometer with a fluorimeter in one portable device. For the first time, colour and 60° gloss are measured and light fastness is predicted.
- Colour, gloss and fluorescence measurement in one device
- Smart docking station with intelligent auto-diagnostics that tell you when to calibrate
- Smart high-tech LED lighting with outstanding short-, long-term and temperature stability
smart-lab Software
Features / Equipment:
- Powerful standards management for setting tolerances and limits
- Export and import of digital standards within the supply chain ensures smooth communication
- Customised colour scales are predefined
- Simultaneous display of results as data table and graph: Lab graph, line/travel graph and spectral curves
- Easily switch measurement conditions such as illuminants and colour difference methods
- Pass/fail tolerances based on common colour difference formulas or custom colour scales
- Exchange of standard and sample guarantees highest flexibility
- Calculation of the mean value from a series of samples and use as a new standard
