カラーワークフローにおいて、品質管理は重要な要素の一つです。多くの場合には、ポータブル型分光測色計が使用されます。場合によっては、ベンチトップ型分光測色計がより適切な選択となります。 本日は品質管理にベンチトップ型分光測色計を選択する理由と、カラーワークフローを最良にするためのコツを紹介します。 品質管理にベンチトップ型分光測色計を選択する5つの理由 1 - 高精度である エックスライト社のポータブル型分光測色計は非常に高精度ですが、ベンチトップ型分光測色計はさらに最高の精度を持ち、測定機器間の誤差も少なくなっています。許容範囲が厳しい場合や、偏差が受入率(および廃棄率)に影響する可能性がある場合は、品質管理用のベンチトップ型分光測色計の購入を検討する必要があります。 2 - サンプルのサイズが小さい ポータブル型分光測色計の最大メリットはサイズと重量です。小型で、持ち運びが安易により、入荷から、生産、研究ラボまで、あらゆる場面で測色を行えます。 しかし、サンプルが比較的小さく、ベンチトップ型でも測色できる場合、ベンチトップ型分光測...
