In industrial production and quality control, color consistency is one of the core elements determining product quality. Whether it is the metallic paint for automobile coating, the dyeing effect of textile fabrics, or the ink matching in packaging and printing, subtle color deviations may lead to cost waste or damage to brand image.

The LAB color space defines colors with a three-dimensional model:

1. Lightness (L): It indicates the lightness or darkness of a color, ranging from 0 (pure black) to 100 (pure white).

2. Hue and Saturation (a and b):

• The a-axis represents the red-green tendency, with positive values leaning towards red and negative values leaning towards green;

• The b-axis represents the yellow-blue tendency, with positive values leaning towards yellow and negative values leaning towards blue.

It is a globally recognized standard and supported by most modern color measurement equipment. Color is quantitatively analyzed by measuring Lab values with instruments.

We provide professional training to customers along with user manuals for the proper operation and maintenance of haze meters. If you have any problems during use, you can contact our experts who will quickly help you solve the problem

Take into account the measurement range, type of samples, needed precision, any relevant standards, and your industry.

Threenh Technology colorimeters provide a color deviation prompt function according to the Lab value, which can provide a reference for color matching. The handheld colorimeter can only indicate blacker, whiter, redder, greener, yellower or bluer, but it cannot provide accurate color formulas. Only with the help of a spectrophotometer and professional color matching software can fully realized automated color matching.

Who are we? Threenh Technology: 22-Year Professional Color Measurement Solution Provider

Threenh Technology is a Chinese professional manufacturer with 22 years of industry experience, specializing in the field of color measurement and surface gloss detection. Integrating research and development, design, production, marketing, and sales, the company takes technological innovation as its core and is committed to providing global customers with high-precision and intelligent testing instruments as well as professional solutions.

Light booths and color matching are essential for the textiles, printing, automotive, plastics, cosmetics, and coatings industries. These fields rely on tight color alignment to protect brand value and meet global quality demands for color. 

The gloss of the paint is defined by the measurement of light reflection at the surface of the paint with the help of a gloss meter. The angle and quantity of light reflected determine the level of gloss, with smoother and reflective surfaces having a higher level of gloss.

The principle of colorimetry is the law of Beer-Lambert, which says that the intensity of light absorbed by a colored solution is proportional to the concentration of the absorbing species and the path length. It measures the extent of light that is absorbed at certain wavelengths.

Colorimetry is a method that applies color intensity to ascertain the chemical concentrations. It is founded on Beer-Lambert Law, whereby the absorbance at a given wavelength is proportional to the concentration. It is popular in environmental and biochemical testing.
