SPEED: Techkon SpectroDENS is designed to be quick and responsive. Whether you make a measurement, calibrate the device or simply power it up, not having to wait each time is a big convenience in routine use.
| Performance Comparison | Techkon | Competitor |
| Measurement | 1 second | 2-3 seconds |
| Wake Up | Instant | 4 seconds |
| Calibration | 3 seconds | 12 seconds |
| Measure 5 patches | 7 seconds | 14 seconds |
ACCURACY: Instrumental color measurement is all about accuracy and precision. Differences in repeatability can be seen most clearly when measuring black colors with polarization filter because the amount of measured light is low and sensor noise can be high.
| Performance Comparison | Techkon | Competitor |
| Black Repeatability | 0.04 Avg. ΔE | 0.19 Avg. ΔE |
| Maximum Deviation | 0.11 Max ΔE | 0.53 Max ΔE |
FUNCTIONS: Power users require flexibility of being able to use scanning for color bars and patch charts and be able to change aperture size for best results. Techkon’s spectro-densitometer has integrated wheels and comes with 2 apertures.
| Performance Comparison | Techkon | Competitor |
| Scanning | Spot and scan included | Needs attachment |
| Aperture | Includes 2 apertures | Single aperture |
RELIABILITY: A pressroom environment can be demanding. Techkon’s design with long-lasting LEDs and no moving optical parts delivers reliable operation on the production floor.
| Performance Comparison | Techkon | Competitor |
| Warranty | 2 years | 1 year |
| Design | LED light, no moving parts in optics | Tungsten lamp, filter wheel |
CONVENIENCE: Techkon’s slim, lightweight design with a unique side-view port allows easy positioning on the color patch to be measured.
| Performance Comparison | Techkon | Competitor |
| Ergonomics | Single handed use | Two handed use |
| Patch Positioning | Side view port | Center port |
