The color inspection
Spectra Light Booth is a tool used to simulate the light source condition such as Daylight (D65), Incandescent light A, and Department store light TL84 for determining an accurate visual evaluation.
The different light source affects to the colour shade. To inspect the accuracy during the production, every paint will initially investigate the colour shade compared with target panel.
Chroma meter
To eliminate the ambiguity in visual judgement, The Chroma meter is another device to measure the color value by used L*, a*, b* color space system. Moreover, it used to compare the color shade between sample and standard color then measure the absolute color coordinates in ∆L*, ∆a*, ∆b* value and differences between colors in ∆E* Value.
Tri-Angle Gloss Meter
Gloss is a value that indicates the intensity of the specular reflection of the surface of an object.
To guarantee the quality of product, the gloss is the important parameter must be measure and compare with target panel.
Generally, the 60° is the universal standard measurement angle for measuring the gloss. To complement this the Tri-angle gloss meter instrument also has 20° for improved measurement on high gloss surface, and 85° which gives improved resolution on matt surface.
Coating thickness gauge
A coating thickness gauge is used to measure dry film thickness.
Dual Type Film Thickness Gauge
non-destructive coating thickness measurement, which do not damage the coating or the substrate. Used for coatings on ferrous substrate with measuring by magnetic induction, and non-ferrous substrate with measuring by eddy current.
