X-Rite MA96™ Portable Multi-Angle Spectrophotometer

Color can make or break a product. Metallics, pearlescents, and other complex special effect finishes deliver limitless possibilities for enhancing product appeal. And limitless challenges as well. Duplicating complex colors from part to part is no easy task.

X-Rite has answers. Our MA96 spectrophotometer is an intelligent, hand-held tool with the power to provide precise, reliable data on special effect coatings, including data from a -15 degree angle.

Through a series of pressure sensors, the MA96 is able to consistently produce accurate readings on flexible and curved surfaces.

We've made it easy to use, too. There's a large color LCD screen for reading data or measurement directions, and options for USB or Bluetooth wireless data communication A more powerful version of our MA94 and MA68II devices, MA96 operation is enhanced by exclusive advantages, such as X-ColorQC® software that enhances process recording, reporting, and control and a JOBs software mode that allows text or visual measurement direction to ensure consistency. All in a few keystrokes.

So now, the only limit to working with special effect finishes is your imagination.

Product Features:

• -15 degree aspecular vieing angle. This angle is on the opposite side of specular to more fully characterize interference pigments.
• Accurate, repeatable sample positioning. Innovative user selectable pressure sensors ensure consistent sample interface on flexible or curved surfaces.
• Portable, lightweight. The unit weighs a little more than a kilogram, making it ideally suited for long-term use without discomfort.
• Rugged design. Engineered to withstand demanding production environments. Supported by an unprecedented two-year warranty.
• Bundled with X-Rite's exclusive X-Color QC™ measurement and analysis software.
• Quick reads. Consistent measurements are achieved in 2 seconds.
• Universal functionality. Universal menu icons simplify usage while eliminating language barrier.
• Program measurement position and sequence. Through software JOBs mode, workers can be given text and/or visual measurement directions to ensure consistency of measurement from shift to shift.
• Increased lamp life, reduced battery consumption. Improved illumination efficiency, results in reduced power consumption from the lamp, allowing up to 750 reads from a fully charged battery.
• Compatibility with previous X-Rite instruments. Maintaining similar optical configurations from previous generations of X-Rite instruments provides compatibility with existing data.
• International standards ready. Meets DIN and ASTM standards: ASTM D 2244, E 308, E 1164, E 2194; DIN 5033, 6174, 6175-2; ISO 7724; SAE J1545.
