The most common standard measuring gloss is ASTM D523, which covers the procedures of using a gloss meter at 20°, 60°, and 85° angles. The other international standard that is widely used in industrial and laboratory applications is the ISO 2813.

If there is uneven lighting, color shifts, and the light is not as bright as it was before, your lamps might have to be replaced. Recent light boxes used with Pantone, as well as Datacolor LightBooths, have usage timers that tell how long before a lamp needs to be replaced.
Of course. Light booths can determine the color of plastic materials, paints, and coatings used in cosmetics, leather, and even pottery. Light booths used to assess and determine precise color comparison can be used on a variety of materials.
A gloss meter measures the amount of light reflected from a surface at a specific angle. It's commonly used to assess surface finishes such as paint, coatings, plastics, and paper for consistency, quality control, and visual appearance evaluation.
For complete color evaluation, the CAC is commonly outfitted with D65 (daylight), TL84 (store light), F (home light), UV, and CWF (cool white fluorescent) lamps.
A coating thickness gauge measures film layers by identifying shifts in magnetic flux, eddy currents, or ultrasonic echoes as they penetrate the coating. The gauge calculates thickness based on the magnitude of these signals. This universally accepted approach results in quick, reliable, and non-invasive measurements.
The five common gloss levels are:
1. Flat/Matte (0–10 GU)
2. Eggshell (10–25 GU)
3. Satin (26–40 GU)
4. Semi-gloss (41–70 GU)
High Gloss (71–100+ GU)
These levels vary slightly depending on industry and standards used.
Assembling the light booth entails connecting the panels, fixing the light fixtures, fitting the tubes, and calibrating the lights according to our 3nh manufacturer’s instructional and safety guidelines.
Take into account the measurement range, type of samples, needed precision, any relevant standards, and your industry.
