The essentials of imaging

CM-700d / 600d

Compact and lightweight spectrophotometer

offering new technologies

for perfect handling!

Objective Quality Control of colour by instrumental assessment has proven to be reliable and affordable technology for
any products where colour is an important quality criterion, as in the Paints & Coatings-, Plastics-, Automotive-, Home­Appliance-, Ceramics-, Textiles- and many other Industries. In addition, the increasingly global relationship between raw
material suppliers, component manufactures, assemblers and buyers make precise colour data communication essential in a
world which is ever more colourful.
The new generation of portable spectrophotometers from Konica Minolta offers unprecedented ease of use and
perfect handling by utilising new technologies, enhanced ergonomics and applying Konica Minolta’s known advanced
optical design and signal processing technology. The CM-700d and CM-600d models will change the way portable
spectrophotometers are perceived and applied in Research & Development and QualityControl by improving usability
and convenience.

Experience

impressive colour measurement!

Measure anything anywhere.

¾

With the CM-700d and CM-600d you can measure any sample anywhere! The
ergonomic vertical alignment is perfectly suited to position and measure round or
even concave shaped parts and samples with single hand operation. Weighing
only 550 g, the CM-700d and CM-600d are the most lightweight instruments
in their class and thus allow excellent portability for on-site measurement. The
measuring aperture is selectable between Ø 8 mm and Ø 3 mm to measure even
small sample sizes (CM-700d only).

Communicate wireless.

¾

The CM-700d and CM-600d are the world’s first
portable colour measuring instruments enabling wireless
data communications with an external PC or a Printer
using Bluetooth
new dimension of freedom of operation to portable
colour measurement in production eliminating the usual
cable tangle associated with conventional instruments.
Bluetooth
can work at distances up to 100m including bi­directional communications displaying PASS/FAIL
message or colorimetric data. In stationary mode, the
instruments also offer communications via a USB port.

data communications with the new models

See colours in colour.

¾

The CM-700d and CM-600d are the world’s first portable colour measuring
instruments with a colour LCD screen to improve colour data reading & perception.
The 2.36-inch bright TFT display shows colour readings both in numerical
or graphical mode to improve operability and understanding. Pseudo colour
simulations to express colour difference or metamerism are also possible for rapid
visual indication.

Easy to operate.

Sphere geometry with simultaneous measurement (automatic
switching) of specular components included (di:8°) and excluded
(de:8°)

Powerful and long life Xenon Flash illumination for maximum accu­racy even on dark and saturated colours

Highest levels in Inter-Instrument- and Inter-Model-Agreement,
essential for global colour data exchange

Choice of 3 power supply modes: Dry battery, rechargeable
batteries (4 AA size) or AC Adapter for maximum fl exibility

Automatic “Stand-by” power saving function mode

¾

The CM-700d and CM-600d also set new standards in ease of use and in-

tuitive operation. Five dedicated buttons for the most important operations
and displayed menu guidance in 6 languages make it easy to navigate
through all functions and features. Data memory capacity allows users to
store up to 1.000 targets and 4.000 measurement sets. With the “Auto
target” function, the instrument searches for the closest target of any mea­sured colour.

Easy to read colour LCD screen.

¾

Abundant information is displayed in colour for easy understanding. Mea­sured colours can also be reproduced as colour patches on the colour
LCD, which is useful to check the level of colour difference or to search for
colours.
