Compare samples against a colour standard and check colour consistency between batches, from colour masterbatches to finished plastic components. SCI and SCE measurement modes help assess colour with the specular component included or excluded. Multiple measurement apertures and sample accessories support different sample sizes and formats, including films. Colour-management software helps record measurements, compare colour differences and prepare quality reports. Contact Flexitest to confirm the aperture and fixture suited to your material.

It helps manufacturers compare production samples with colour standards and monitor colour consistency.** Which plastic and polymer samples can the TS8500-E measure? **The instrument can measure a wide range of samples, including plastic components, sheets, films, pellets, masterbatch, and other polymer products. Optional accessories also support measurements of curved and specialized samples.** What are SCI and SCE measurement modes? SCI (Specular Component Included) measures colour including reflected specular light, while SCE (Specular Component Excluded) measures colour with specular reflection excluded. These modes help evaluate colour appearance under different measurement conditions. How does the TS8500-E help with colour quality control? The TS8500-E converts visual colour assessment into measurable colour data, making it easier to identify colour differences, compare batches, maintain colour standards, and improve production consistency. What features does the TS8500-E offer for colour measurement? **The TS8500-E features dual-array CMOS sensors, multiple measurement apertures, SCI/SCE modes, multiple colour spaces, colour-difference calculations, touchscreen operation, and automatic calibration for efficient and repeatable colour measurement.** ## Related Machines [⌊TS7700 Portable Spectrophotometer⌉⌊TS7700 Portable Spectrophotometer⌉[ [TS7700 Portable Spectrophotometer](https://flexitest.in/plastic-and-polymer/flexitest-colour-measurement-solutions/ts7700-grating-spectrophotometer/) Portable reflected-colour and colour-difference quality control on opaque plastic and polymer surfaces. d/8° (SCI/SCE), UV incl./excl.
