Lightbooths come in different dimensions. A typical tabletop model occupies 0.5-1 m². The bigger industrial variants take up 2-4 m².  If you have special requirements, we can customize the product according to your size


The repeatability is an important parameter for the accuracy of the colorimeter. Threenh Technology portable colorimeter for color measurements tandard deviation ΔE*ab is within 0.03 (Measurement condition: the average value of 30 measurements on the white board at an interval of 3s after calibration). Each colorimeter can pass the qualified inspection before leaving the factory to ensure it conforms to the standard of China Metrology Institute.

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.


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


Powder paint gloss levels are classified as:

● Flat: 0–10 GU

● Satin: 11–40 GU

● Semi-gloss: 41–70 GU

● Gloss: 71–85 GU

● High Gloss: 86+ GU
 

These are measured at a 60° angle for standardization.


D65, TL84, A light, CWF, and UV are the most common standardized sources used for precise color matching.

This refers to assessing samples with a specific color and maintaining the same alloted time interval on all parameters to ensure neutrality of variables and reproducibility of lightness in the color. 


A colorimeter is sufficient when measuring similar materials or batches with stable conditions. Suitable for fast, low-cost color checks where high precision is not required. Quick quality control in plastics, paint batch consistency, food color grading (e.g., fruit ripeness), and basic printing checks.

A spectrophotometer is recommended when you need professional, maximum color accuracy or when testing materials with variable surfaces – such as glossy or textured samples. Like textile dye formulation, cosmetic shade matching, medical device color calibration, high-end printing (e.g., packaging for luxury goods), and material spectral research. learn more Understanding Spectrophotometric Parameter Measurement


Spectrophotometers can only measure haze if it has haze measuring capabilities, as many measure color and transmittance.


A colorimeter is used to measure absorbance at selected wavelengths with the help of filters, which is suitable for rapid comparison of colors. A more advanced spectrophotometer has a monochromator. It can measure a larger range of the spectrum of light and is more accurate. You can also get detailed color data at visible and non-visible wavelengths.
