X-Rite Inc., Grandville, Mich., has introduced TeleFlash, a non-contact spectrophotometer. The unit
is manufactured by Germany-based Optronik, a subsidiary of X-Rite.TeleFlash can be used for
continuous, on-line color measurement. The unit is able to measure and evaluate color deviation in
all samples, including textured, finely patterned or glossy samples.Visual or acoustic warnings
alert the operator to out-of-tolerance color in tested samples. Color measurement data can be
stored and compiled into a printed report, or processed for automatic network transmission.X-Rite
also manufactures a compact version of the TeleFlash system. The smaller unit offers identical
features.
