The
paint testing equipment proves to be a true multitasking device. It is designed to
measure the color spectrum of various objects. Light consists of a
broad spectrum of colors which are not always purely white, black or
blue. A light-source illuminates an object, which then absorbs part of
that light and reflects another one. That reflected light can be then
detected by a sensor in order to determine the reflected wavelengths and
thus calculate its color. Paint testing equipments are often applied in areas of
quality control in industrial sectors. The paint testing equipment is applied especially in industries where the characteristics of colors
play a big role.
Whether it is dental technology, painting industries or for the production of plastic bags, the paint testing equipment is an ideal product for quality management and thus assure highest reliability, whenever it is important to assure a certain standard in optic quality. The paint testing equipment supports an ergonomic design and features a user-friendly menu navigation. The paint testing equipment has a measuring aperture of 8 mm. The supported color spaces of the paint testing equipment are CIEL*a*b*C*h, CIEL a*b*, and CIEXYZ.
Thus the paint testing equipment is designed for application in professional industries. Another advantage of the paint testing equipment is that it supports a vertical justification. This means that the whole device does not need to be placed on the object to analyse, but only the part with the sensor in it. The industrial perspective of it is that this method allows the measuring of damp objects, textiles and even food. The paint testing equipment is therefore ideally applied for measurements of e.g. meat, bananas or tomatoes. Due to the software "CQCS3" that is included in the delivery, the measured data can be read out on a computer or laptop for a digital overview.

The L*a*b color space |
|
Here you can see the color space L*a*b. This color space covers all colors that are visible with the naked eye. L=100 stands for white and L=0 for black. "a+" and "a-" or "b+" and "b-" stands for the color contrasts red, green, yellow and blue. |
