NR20XE colorimeter is one type of colorimetric measuring instruments used to capture, analyse, and communicate color. Discover the next - generation handheld color measurement tool, This innovative solution empowers you to accurately understand, control, and communicate color throughout every stage of the workflow. NR20XE with an intuitive touchscreen for precise, fast, and reliable determination of natural samples color.
When testing products such as meat measurement by ordinary colorimeter, the whole instrument body has to be placed in the object which not only stains the instrument, but also will let the liquid/water enter the instrument directly and bring cross contamination. However, NR20XE is a vertical structure. When measuring, it can make sure only the aperture touches the object which will not stain the instrument body.

In industrial production and quality control, color consistency is one of the core elements determining product quality. Whether it is the metallic paint for automobile coating, the dyeing effect of textile fabrics, or the ink matching in packaging and printing, subtle color deviations may lead to cost waste or damage to brand image.
The LAB color space defines colors with a three-dimensional model:
Lightness (L): It indicates the lightness or darkness of a color, ranging from 0 (pure black) to 100 (pure white).
Hue and Saturation (a and b):
The a-axis represents the red-green tendency, with positive values leaning towards red and negative values leaning towards green;
The b-axis represents the yellow-blue tendency, with positive values leaning towards yellow and negative values leaning towards blue.
It is a globally recognized standard and supported by most modern color measurement equipment. Color is quantitatively analyzed by measuring Lab values with instruments.
