SpectraMagic™ DX
The SpectraMagic™DX, is a color measurement quality control software suitable for industries such as Automotive, Plastics, Paint & Coatings, Cosmetics and more. Whether your color control involves incoming raw materials, in-process production or outbound color critical goods and materials, SpectraMagic™DX makes it easy to inspect and quantify color. While in principal keeping the look and feel of SpectraMagic™NX, the new design of the SpectraMagic™DX user interface makes using the software even simpler; utilizing predefined screen templates for Pass/Fail assessments, statistical process control and R&D analysis, SpectraMagic™DX helps you choose just what's right for you. SpectraMagic™DX connects to 日本's new CM-M6, CM-25cG as well as the CM-2500c spectrophotometers and is compatible with current Windows Operating Systems.
Features
Requirements in screen layouts differ by application, from simple Pass/Fail assessment or statistic process control to detailed analysis for R&D work. SpectraMagic DX comes with several pre-defined templates to choose from, or you can create your own screen layout suiting your needs and application with total freedom and flexibility.
With the new Diagnosis function, it becomes easy to check the performance of your instruments and check Repeatability, Reproducibility or Light Source level.
Target data of one master target (primary target) can be associated with two or more working targets (regular secondary targets). This allows for sophisticated QC applications such as checking for color differences between the regular targets and master target simultaneously.
You can choose from several graphs together with the latest Pass/Fail color difference assessments equations, such as CIE 1994 or CIE DE2000 and several industry related indices.
