Comparing and Matching Color Chips

In design and production workflows, color matching straddles the divide between art and analytical reasoning. Users often have to compare two color chips, or match a color to a digital record. 

 This is the purpose for which 3nh high-accuracy spectrophotometers are purpose built. They measure color samples and automatically calculate ΔE values to identify differences that the eye cannot see. Users can match new materials to existing standards in an instant thanks to built-in data logging and customizable color databases. 

 This is particularly important in the automotive refinishing and coating industries, as well as in printing and plastics, where brand-specific color consistency is crucial.

FAQs About YS6003 Benchtop Spectrophotometers

Colorimeters or spectrophotometers are used to measure liquid color. They measure light coming through or reflecting off the liquid. Readings can be reported as Lab*, RGB, or absorbance units. So that objective color analysis can be used to control quality, or to measure chemical concentration.

D/8°and 45°/0°are two kinds of illumination geometry with different optical geometry design. D/8°illumination geometry is more widely used for the color comparison and measurement of high-gloss materials; 45°/0°illumination geometry is mainly used in printing and packaging industries. 

When detecting color differences, the first factors to consider when selecting a light source include its stability, directionality, lifespan, and the effectiveness of the ultimately obtained spectral curve. The illuminant of a colorimeter is a fixed bulb, such as a tungsten lamp，LED light or a long-life xenon lamp. However, for the same color sample, the results displayed by the instrument vary under different light sources. This is because different light sources cause different absorption and reflection of light on the sample, leading to differences in how both the human eye and the instrument perceive the color. 

In general, the D65 light source is used in the application of coil steel inks for construction. The D65 light source is equivalent to average daylight. Most coil steel inks for construction are used outdoors, and sunlight is regarded as the standard light source in outdoor environments. For household appliance coil steel inks, due to their usage characteristics, they are mostly used indoors. Therefore, the A standard light source is adopted for color measurement of samples based on indoor lighting conditions. The A light source is a carefully specified tungsten light source. Other light sources, such as fluorescent light sources, can be used in many types of applications. For example, some textile factories use fluorescent light sources. Therefore, a reasonable light source should be selected as the mutually recognized measurement method based on actual usage conditions and user requirements. Once agreed upon by both parties, color measurement must be conducted under the same conditions. This helps reduce unnecessary systematic errors and human errors, achieving the optimal consistency in color measurement. 

The 3nh high-precision spectrophotometric colorimeter adopts a combined LED light source with long lifespan and low power consumption, which includes UV (ultraviolet) and UV-excluded options. This design can meet the color difference detection needs of different users and supports the selection of multiple light source modes.

The color of chemical products is measured by using a colorimeter or spectrophotometer. The instruments measure the amount of light that gets absorbed or reflected by a substance. It may be used to determine concentration, purity, or compliance with product standards.

Always a pre-production sample before mass production; Always final Inspection before shipment;
