MA-5 QC: Actionable Color Measurement Tool for Effect Finishes
Built with quality control managers in mind, the MA-5 QC can identify color defects early in the manufacturing process and avoid unnecessary rework. Featuring strategically placed optics at the tip, it is 60% faster, 50% lighter, and 40% more compact than any other five-angle device on the market. This allows operators to easily position MA-5 QC with one hand and capture more measurements per hour.

Measure Color With Confidence
Looking for added repeatability? The MA-5 QC can capture a measurement in less than 2.5 seconds and collect multiple data points for automated jobs. The compact and lightweight design minimizes operator fatigue and enables easy-one handed operation. Indicator lights ensure correct positioning and an automatic optics shutter keeps dust out of the device.
Analyze Data with Ease
The MA-5 QC offers an intuitive touch screen, red and green pass/fail lights for easy tolerancing, and fast data output with one-click reporting. With first-of-its-kind temperature preview, the MA-5 QC can determine whether sample temperature is affecting color data so you can make informed decisions. To charge and connect with a PC, simply set the MA-5 QC into the convenient docking station.
