Control The Every-changing Colors

When testing product color or color matching in production process, different light sources, illuminance, color temperature and environmental changes make the naked eye make wrong judgment on color.

Color light box can provide accurate and objective standard light source environment for raw material production or product color comparison.

The 3nh color - matching cabinet features a seamless structure design. It is 100% light - tight, preventing interference between light sources. The light sources can switch automatically, and it has a metamerism - detecting function. No pre - heating is required, and there is no flickering, ensuring fast and reliable color evaluation.

Why Use Color Evaluation Equipment

The human eye can distinguish millions of colors, yet such visual assessment of color remains subjective. In the context of quality control, this is undesirable because it lacks quantifiable data and cannot be clearly documented.  To evaluate the color of your products, we offer light booths that enable optimal visual color observation independent of ambient lighting conditions and with repeatability, as well as spectrophotometers for quantifiable and documented color measurement.

Introduction to Standard Light Source Color Matching Cabinets

Definition:

A tool used for comparing and evaluating color accuracy. Different light sources can cause objects to appear in different colors, especially indoors or at night. To address this, color inspection of goods must be conducted under consistent light sources and controlled conditions.


Key Functions:

  1. Provide Standard Lighting Environment

    • Simulate multiple international standard light sources (D65, D50, TL84, TL83/U30, UV, F, CWF, A), eliminating ambient light interference to ensure objective and repeatable color evaluation.

  2. Identify Metamerism

    • Detect "metamerism" (color matching under one light source but not another) by switching between light sources (e.g., D65, UV), revealing differences in dyes or formulations.

  3. Ensure Color Consistency

    • Compare colors of raw materials, finished products, packaging, etc., in industrial production to ensure batch-to-batch color uniformity.

  4. Improve Quality Control Efficiency

    • Assist quality inspectors in quickly identifying color deviations, reducing risks of rework and returns caused by color discrepancies.

Standard Light Source Color - Matching Cabinets VS Traditional Lighting Sources

Standard Light Source General lighting
Core FunctionProfessional color detection, simulating a standard light source environmentGeneral lighting, meeting basic brightness and ambient needs
Light Source DiversitySupports multi - light source switching (such as D65, A light source, etc.)Single light source (mainly warm or cool light, non - customizable switching)
Color AccuracyExtremely high (high color rendering index of the light source), reducing color errorsLow (low color rendering index of the light source), large color deviation
CostHigh (equipment + maintenance)Low (procurement)
Applicable ScenariosColor - sensitive industrial quality control, e.g., textile, printing, plastics, etc.General lighting scenarios, e.g., home, office, commercial spaces, etc.

For industries with high requirements for color accuracy, standard light source color - matching cabinets are essential tools.

Application of Standard Light Source Color - Matching Cabinets

Applicable Scope: Textile, garment, plastic, toy, paint, ink, pigment, printing, dyeing, packaging, hardware, photography, ceramics, leather, food, cosmetics and other industries.


IndustryApplications
Textile, ApparelDetect the color consistency of fabrics, dyes, and finished garments under different light sources (such as daylight, showcase spotlights) to avoid color - difference disputes in orders.
Printing, PackagingCalibrate the color of ink to ensure that the design drafts match the colors of actual printed products in environments like cool white light and warm light.
Plastic, Plastic ProductsDetect the color stability of plastic pellets and injection - molded parts (such as automotive interiors) to avoid color deviations caused by raw material batch differences.
Paint, Coating, Chemical IndustryCalibrate the formula of coating color pastes to prevent the "metamerism" problem.
Automobile Manufacturing, PartsCalibrate the color of car body paint and interior material colors to ensure that parts provided by different suppliers match in color under a unified light source.
Leather, Footwear MaterialsDetect the color fastness of leather fabrics and footwear auxiliary materials to ensure the color display effect of finished shoes in scenarios such as shopping mall spotlights and outdoor showcases.
CosmeticsEvaluate the color stability of products like lipsticks and eyeshadows, as well as the visual effect of packaging colors in the retail environment.
FoodDetect the colors of packaging and products (such as beverages, meats) to avoid the impact of lighting differences on consumers' judgment of product quality.


Usage Precautions for Standard Light Source Color - Matching Cabinets

Observation Angle


During color inspection, differences in the observation angle can also affect the color assessment results.

  1. Zero - degree light source, 45 - degree observation (0°/45°);

  2. 45 - degree light source, zero - degree observation (45°/0°).


Sample Placement


  1. Place the sample in the middle of the cabinet as much as possible to reduce the interference of external light.

  2. Avoid overlapping samples as much as possible. Grey baffles can be used to cover the samples to reduce interference between them.

FAQs About  Light Booth

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.


Standard models are available in a range of sizes, starting from small desktop units which are roughly the size of 60 x 40 x 40 cm, and extending to larger units which are about 120 x 60 x 80 cm based on what you need them for.


For complete color evaluation, the CAC is commonly outfitted with D65 (daylight), TL84 (store light), F (home light), UV, and CWF (cool white fluorescent) lamps. 


Use our 3nh company approved light. Replace all of the same type together and recalibrate to keep consistent color rendering. We usually do not recommend customers to modify it themselves, as this can affect the accuracy of the color and cause unnecessary losses


A light booth for color matching usually contains D65 (daylight), TL84 (store), A (incandescent) and UV light. LED may also be used in modern time for additional color matching.
