3nh TS1010 Spectrodensitometer (Standard Edition) is a premium print quality testing device specifically built for professional printing houses and packaging enterprises. Equipped with a dual-array 40-group silicon photodiode sensor, it accurately measures key indicators including optical density, dot area, dot gain, and trapping ratio, while supporting a density scanning function to comprehensively analyze print quality distribution. Delivering first-grade metrology accuracy, the TS1010 provides dependable data support across the entire production workflow. The TS1010 stands out for its 'Professional Precision and Authoritative Reliability': its planar grating spectrophotometric technology achieves a density repeatability of 0.001D, while the density scanning feature enables full-format quality analysis of printed media. Whether for in-process quality control or authoritative pre-shipment inspections, the TS1010 delivers professional, accurate, and traceable measurement data, making it an essential tool for small-to-medium printing enterprises seeking quality upgrades.
Built-in with ISO Status T, E, A, I, and M multi-density standards, the TS1010 supports professional printing metrics including density value/difference, dot area and dot gain, trapping ratio, print contrast, hue error and grayness, printing plate inspection, and density scanning. It fulfills all-around quality control needs from pre-press adjustment to finished product sampling, providing in-depth print quality data analysis to support process optimization and quality enhancement.
Standardized with three interchangeable measurement apertures—Φ11mm, Φ6mm, and Φ3mm. The large aperture is suited for uniform surfaces like paper and fabric; the small apertures target film dots, fine color bars, or PCB color patches. Covering most professional printing measurement scenarios, it offers exceptional cost-performance and serves as a premier choice for professional inspection entry.
Featuring a wavelength range of 400–700nm sampled accurately at 10nm intervals, the device generates real-time spectral reflectance curves. The shape of these curves allows direct observation of metamerism, providing intuitive physical evidence for color formulation validation and raw material evaluation.
Utilizing a geometric design of 45° circumferential illumination and 0° reception, the instrument perfectly matches the CIE No. 15 standard. This structure effectively suppresses specular reflection interference caused by surface texture, directional gloss, or brushed finishes, ensuring measurement data closely reflects true human color perception.
Complies with all four illumination conditions specified by ISO 13655:
M0 (Illuminant A): Suitable for traditional color evaluation.
M1 (Illuminant D50): Simulates daylight, adhering to mainstream international standards.
M2 (UV Cut): Excludes UV fluorescence interference, specifically designed for samples containing optical brighteners (OBA).
M3 (M2 + Polarizing Filter): Effectively eliminates surface glare, ideal for high-gloss prints or metallic luster materials. Note: Under M3 polarization mode, repeatability and inter-instrument agreement parameters are slightly adjusted; refer to technical specifications for details.
The companion software is fully compatible with Android, iOS, Windows, HarmonyOS, and WeChat Mini-Programs, enabling seamless data export, report generation, and remote collaboration. Paired with Netmetric network calibration features, calibration parameters can be updated online in real time, ensuring data consistency and long-term stability across multiple devices.
