CIELAB L*a*b* values are the most standardized units in the use of color measurement. These determine values of lightness (L*), red-green (a*), and blue-yellow (b*). The color differences between the two samples can be measured through ΔE.

Compared to an analog model, digital gauges not only provide more accuracy, but also allow for greater repeatability and are easier to work with. Advanced digital gauges allow for features such as data storage and automatic calibration and statistical analysis. For these reasons, digital gauges are the preferred choice for professional applications.


Once ignited, the gauge will select the correct substrate mode. The probe should be placed flat on the coated surface. The thickness of the coating will show on the screen. Measurements should be taken on different areas of the surface to ensure accuracy.


A digital coating thickness gauge is used to measure the thickness of dried paint. It measures coating thickness specification non-destructively, helping to maintain consistent quality and performance.


The concentration of colored compounds in a solution is determined by the use of a colorimeter test. It can be used to measure the quality of the product. The colorimeter test determines the presence of contamination or observes chemical reactions by measuring the extent to which a solution absorbs light at a given wavelength.


Yes. We can supply OEM and make customized design for any specific application. Our MOQ for OEM and ODM service is 5 pcs for one model. We can not only offer standard machines, but also customized machines. Don’t hesitate to tell us your requirement, we will try our best to meet your needs.

The automotive, aerospace, metal finishing, marine, construction, and manufacturing industries utilize and rely on coating thickness gauges the most. They ensure that coatings are within the expected criteria for functionality, safety, and durability.


Take L*a*b* readings of two samples using a colorimeter or spectrophotometer and calculate color difference using the 3 formula (Delta E). The difference in 0 is the reported Delta-E, which shows how visible the change is, whereas the thresholds define the acceptability as per the application requirements.


Depending on model and location, delivery time is usually 2-4 weeks for standard models and 4-6 weeks for built- to-order ones.
