Konica Minolta Sensing Releases New CM-3700A Benchtop Spectrophotometer In Mexico
RAMSEY, N.J., Sept. 18, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Konica Minolta Sensing Americas, Inc. (KMSA), the worldwide leader in the industrial measurement of color, light and 3D shape, announces the release of its newest benchtop spectrophotometer, the CM-3700A in Mexico and within Latin America.

The CM-3700A is an updated version of the now discontinued CM-3700d. Inheriting the same optical system technology as its predecessor, it offers the same excellent performance and measurement data compatibility while adding a new USB communication interface, a larger sample area designed to accommodate larger sheet samples and a newly engineered "soft close" sample holder.
CM-3700A Main Features
1. Reflectance and Transmittance
The CM-3700A can measure both the reflectance of opaque objects and the transmittance of transparent or translucent solid materials such as plastics. With accessories, the CM-3700A can even measure the transmittance of liquids.
2. UV Adjustment for Fluorescent Materials
Accurate measurement of materials containing fluorescent whitening agents such as paper, cloth, and plastics, requires the precise control of the UV component of the illumination in the measuring instrument. The CM-3700A enables the degree of UV in the illumination to be controlled with a UV cutoff filter. This is accomplished using a 400nm UV Cutoff filter which is inserted into the instruments illumination light path. Determining and setting the filters position manually can be tedious and time consuming. The CM-3700A used with SpectraMagic NX color data software enables the positioning to be performed automatically.
3. New USB Interface
The interface has been changed from RS-232C serial to USB providing faster communication and easier connection to newer computers.
4. Larger Sample Area
The sample holder design has been changed to give it a longer arm to enable measuring the center of an A4-sized sample, and a damper has been added to provide a "slow-close" effect that prevents the sample holder from slamming shut and possibly damaging the measurement sample or pinching fingers.
5. Improved Sample Holder
A "soft close" sample arm holder now protects samples from being damaged and eliminates unwanted spring back.
6. Protected Power Switch
A protective frame has been added around the power switch to make it less likely that the switch will be operated by accident.
7. RoHS Conformance
The CM-3700A is in full conformance with the RoHS (Restrictions on Hazardous Substances) directive.
In addition to the launch of the CM-3700A, version 2.2 of SpectraMagic NX color data software is now available. This powerful software enables you to perform comprehensive color inspection and analysis critical to your business. Both the CM-3700A and SpectraMagic NX are now available for sale throughout Latin America.
