Colour Measurement (CM3)

Colour Measurement (CM3)

With the OCS Colour Measurement (CM3), all types of pellets can be analysed by means of a colour spectrometer in a measuring channel with an inspection glass. The CM3 is usually connected upstream of the Pellet Scanner (PS25C). This scanner determines relevant colour values (Yellowness Index [YI], Whiteness Index [WI], CIE L*a*b*, etc.) based on the recorded colour spectrum.
