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.

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

Follow the calibration steps form 3nh. Don’t touch the sample and drop the measurement light to eliminate external light.

Now our testing machines have been sold to more than 80 countries, like USA, Canada, Russia,UK, Italy, Germany, European , India, Pakistan, Philippine, Singapore, Malaysia,Thailand , Vietnam, Korea,Saudi Arabia,Brazil...and so on. We sell to the global market.

The various colors can be measured by the way a surface reflects, absorbs, or transmits light at different wavelengths. These responses may be measured using instruments such as colorimeters or spectrophotometers to give numeric values in a standardized color space such as L *a*b*.

The haze meter test assesses the degree of light scattering that occurs when light traverses a transparent or translucent material, producing a percentage that quantifies example or cloudiness.

The accuracy of colors is determined by comparing the values of the colors (L*a*b*) of a sample with a standard reference sample using tools such as spectrophotometers. The variation is measured as ΔE. The smaller the value of ΔE, the more accurate, the nearer to the target color.

 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.

To answer this question, you first need to clarify your specific needs: 

• Is it for simple color quality control (QC)?

• To coordinate with supply chain color management?

• To monitor on-line color stability?

• Do you require computer color matching or production color correction?

• What is your budget?

• Systematic supervision and evaluation of color performance in dyed products?

If you aren’t fully clear about your requirements at the initial stage, our color management engineers are ready to communicate with you. We will recommend solutions tailored to your needs. When conditions permit, we can provide prototype demonstrations and trial testing to ensure the instrument meets your practical application requirements.

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.
