FAQs About PS2010 Spectrocolorimeter
In industrial production and quality control, color consistency is one of the core elements determining product quality. Whether it is the metallic paint for automobile coating, the dyeing effect of textile fabrics, or the ink matching in packaging and printing, subtle color deviations may lead to cost waste or damage to brand image.
The LAB color space defines colors with a three-dimensional model:
Lightness (L): It indicates the lightness or darkness of a color, ranging from 0 (pure black) to 100 (pure white).
Hue and Saturation (a and b):
The a-axis represents the red-green tendency, with positive values leaning towards red and negative values leaning towards green;
The b-axis represents the yellow-blue tendency, with positive values leaning towards yellow and negative values leaning towards blue.
It is a globally recognized standard and supported by most modern color measurement equipment. Color is quantitatively analyzed by measuring Lab values with instruments.
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
A colorimeter is used to measure the intensity of color of a solution by measuring its absorbance at selected wavelengths of light. It is widely applied in chemistry, food, pharmaceuticals, and quality control to determine concentration, track color changes, or product uniformity.
A colorimeter measures the amount of light and the wavelength that is absorbed by a solution. It is a sign that colored compounds are present and the level of their concentration. It is applied in the laboratory and industry to check the concentrations of chemicals, the color of products, and purity.
A Spectrophotometer color measuring device objectively determines the color of a surface. It is used wherever accurate color matching, reproducibility or deviation control is needed – for example in quality assurance, product development or incoming goods inspection.
Capture color information: They detect light reflected, transmitted, or emitted by a sample using optical sensors.
Quantify color data: They convert the captured optical signals into standardized numerical values, such as RGB, CMYK, or CIELAB coordinates.
Compare color consistency: They compare the measured color data of a sample against a target or standard to assess color accuracy and uniformity.
