SpectroDrive
Automatic Scanning Spectrophotometer


FAST
Sub heading here
The SpectroDrive scans press sheet color bars in a matter of seconds while simultaneously sending spectral and density measurement data to a PC running the Techkon Expresso software. Scan a 40″ press sheet in less than 8 seconds.
ACCURATE
Sub heading goes here.
The measured density and color information is displayed with suggested density changes for more accurate color. The spectral color engine delivers unbeatable measurement accuracy and consistency over time.


VERSATILE
Sub heading goes here.
The SpectroDrive can be used for automatic scanning or as a hand-held device for “spot check” measurements.
