Aeros: Advanced Color Measurement for Powders and Granules
In industries where color consistency defines product quality—such as food, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and cosmetics—accurate measurement of powders and granular materials is crucial. The HunterLab Aeros is a specialized solution designed to deliver precise, repeatable color analysis for difficult sample types.
What is HunterLab Aeros?
The HunterLab Aeros is an advanced spectrophotometer engineered specifically for measuring the color of powders, granules, and other non-uniform materials.
Unlike traditional color measurement systems, it uses a unique sample presentation method that ensures consistent readings without manual packing or preparation.
Key Features of HunterLab Aeros
1. Ideal for Powders & Granules
The Aeros is specifically designed to handle challenging samples like:
Flour and spices
Pharmaceutical powders
Chemicals and pigments
Plastic granules
2. Non-Contact Measurement
Its non-contact design prevents contamination and maintains sample integrity, making it ideal for sensitive materials.
3. Consistent and Repeatable Results
By eliminating variability in sample presentation, the Aeros ensures highly reproducible color measurements.
4. User-Friendly Operation
The instrument is easy to operate, reducing training time and improving lab efficiency.
5. Advanced Color Scales
Supports multiple color scales including:
CIE Lab*
Hunter L, a, b
YI (Yellowness Index)
How HunterLab Aeros Works
The HunterLab Aeros uses a patented sample presentation system where powders are gently dispersed into a measurement chamber. This ensures:
Uniform surface presentation
Reduced operator dependency
Accurate and repeatable readings
The spectrophotometer then measures reflected light to determine precise color values.
Applications Across Industries
Food Industry
Measure color of flour, sugar, spices, and dairy powders to maintain product consistency.
Pharmaceutical Industry
Ensure uniformity in APIs and excipients for quality control.
Chemical Industry
Analyze pigments, coatings, and powdered chemicals.
Plastics Industry
Maintain color consistency in polymer granules and resins.
