Konica Minolta CR-400/410 color colorimeter

Konica Minolta CR-400/410 color colorimeter

The newly launched Konica Minolta "CR-400" and "CR-410" color colorimeters can be measured through a single measuring head, which has the advantages of high precision, versatility, and easy operation.Product Introduction
Famous color colorimeter series - more powerful and diverse functions
Derived from the famous color colorimeter series, it has more powerful and diverse functions.
The new color colorimeter CR-400 is the successor to the widely recognized and acclaimed CR-100, CR-200, and CR-300 series. It has a large number of additional functions and a wider range of uses, but fully retains its all-optical characteristics, ensuring data exchange with previous models. The measurement area of CR-400 is 8mm, suitable for measuring reflection color and color difference in various industries. It can meet various applications such as ingredients, food, raw materials, finished products, drugs, and dermatology.
If the test object has a specific structure or uneven surface, such as granular material, fabric, wood, stone, brick, etc., then CR-410 is your wise choice. Its unique 50mm large aperture is very suitable for measuring such samples, without the need for multiple measurements and taking the average.
The main improvements of the new model are increased usability and functionality, such as redesigning the data processor, equipping it with a large backlit display screen (which can display measurement data digitally or graphically), and a built-in high-speed thermal printer. The data memory can store up to 100 target colors and 1000 measurement results. Multiple new color spaces, qualified/unqualified formulas, and white/yellowness indicators have enhanced the application of the instrument in various aspects. The new "Custom Metrics" feature allows an additional 6 different users to input, or use XYZ, Yxy, or CIELAB values to input 6 sets of formulas specific to a particular application. Additionally, the display language can be set to English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, or Japanese.
To further enhance the flexibility of use, the measuring head is equipped with a display screen, function keys, and power supply, which can be used independently without relying on a data processor or directly connected to a computer as an additional item sold separately through Windows ® The QC software SpectraMagic NX is running.
The fourth generation color difference meter has multiple new functions, excellent usability, and durability, and will definitely create brilliance in the field of modern color control!

Product overview

• Due to the use of easily recognizable button names for setting and correcting color difference reference colors, both measurement and setting operations are simple and easy to perform.
• Has repeatability within Δ E * ab 0.07 and instrument error within Δ E * ab 0.6/CR-400; High precision within Δ E * ab 0.8/CR-410.
• Using any calibration function can achieve higher levels of accuracy. (Set up using a data processor or separately sold configuration software.)
• The critical value evaluation confirmation result (qualified/warning/unqualified) can be set using a data processor or separately sold configuration software
• Load onto the chromatograms of CR-300 and CR-310 to select chromatograms with more colors.
• When using a single measuring head, 1000 measurement data can be saved, and when connected to a data processor, 2000 data can be saved. (Color difference reference color data can save up to 100 pieces of data when using a single measuring head and when connected to a data processing machine)
• Since a color difference chart can also be used, the color difference can be visually confirmed. (When using a data processor)
• The explanation text for the color difference reference color and the input of the correction channel name are both operated using a simple and easy-to-use mobile SMS input method. (When using a data processor)
• Clear and precise backlit LCD display screen.
• Six languages including English and Japanese can be selected on the LCD display screen.
• Can be driven by rechargeable batteries, economical and practical.

Main purpose

• Painting field
• Rubber and plastic field
• Printing field
• Fiber and dyeing fields
• Food sector
• Agriculture, forestry, and aquatic industries
• Ceramic industry field
• Residential construction field
• Medical and academic fields

Main features

• Can be measured separately using a measuring head

Remove the measuring head from the data processor and use it to measure separately. In addition, as the measuring head unit can be directly connected to a computer, it can be operated through a computer using separately sold configuration software instead of a data processor.

• You can freely set any evaluation formula and color calculation formula

Due to the user search function that allows for the free setting of any evaluation formula and color calculation formula, measurement management can be performed even when using industry-specific evaluation formulas and customers' own evaluation formulas for color management instead of ordinary chromaticity diagrams or evaluation formulas such as L * a * b *.

• Accessories that can measure various measuring objects

This product is equipped with various accessories for measuring powders, liquids, and viscous substances.

• A miniaturized data processor with built-in high-speed printer

The body of the data processor is lightweight and compact, and the built-in printer is powered by batteries, resulting in fast printing speed. The size and weight are only half of the CR-300 series, and it can also be equipped with a shoulder strap for easy carrying.
*Standard accessory AC adapter can also be used to drive.

• Can exchange data with CR-300/310

The lighting receiving optical system has the same data exchange function as the original model CR-300/310, so customers who use CR-300/310 can continue to flexibly use their previous data.
