The color measurement test applies a colorimeter or spectrophotometer to evaluate the way a sample reflects or absorbs light. It is given in objective color values (L*a*b*, RGB, or absorbance) and is usually contrasted to a standard in quality control or compliance.

The number of reflected light is a measure assigned by a gloss meter as a gloss unit (GU). It is a normalized quantity in which 100 GU is normally a perfect reflection at 60°, and 0° GU is a full diffusion.

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.

 A spectrophotometer illuminates a sample with light or passes light through it and records the reflected or transmitted light over the wavelength range. It transforms this data into color coordinates (such as L*a*b*), allowing accurate color assessment as well as color comparison to standards.

Make sure the light sources are calibrated, keep extraneous light sources away, have the correct viewing angles, and handle the samples in a clean and uniform manner.

Every 2,000 - 3,000 hours or manufacturer recommendation to maintain consistent light and color quality.

SCI&SCE are two method in the color measurement. SCI means Specular Component Include,SCE means Specular Component Exclude.

Under the method of SCE, only test diffuse refection and exclude specular reflection. In that way, the test result is similar to object color was observed by human eyes.

Under the method SCI, both the diffuse refection and specular reflection will be included. In that way, the value about the color is more objective. It will not effect by the environment condition.

When we choose the instrument, those elements should be taking into consideration.

Record the L*a*b values of the sample and the reference with a calibrated spectrophotometer or colorimeter. Compute the difference in the color by use of ΔE. The lower the Delta E, the more accurate the result. The difference in energy, ΔE < 1, is generally assumed to be invisible to the eye.

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.
