Manual reading of test charts for profiling and colour validation is a time-consuming process and leaves room for human error. The new i1iO model is designed to adapt to the i1Pro 3 and i1Pro 3 Plus, providing a simple way to improve functionality, versatility and speed up the measurement process.

Designed to accommodate the i1Pro 3 and i1Pro 3 Plus, this advanced model offers additional functionality and versatility, throughput profiling capabilities and faster measurements.

  • Measured on a variety of substrates up to 10 mm thick, including thin polythene bag material, ceramics and textiles.
  • Reads more than 500 samples per minute in scan mode with M0 setting to quickly create customised profiles.
  • Offers maximum flexibility thanks to hands-free automation and ease of use.
  • Support automated transmission profiling with i1Pro 3 Plus for illuminated films and sign materials.
  • Provides more accurate and consistent profiles than manually created profiles.
