Coating Light Box

The paint light box simulates standard light sources such as daylight and fluorescent light to illuminate samples, allowing observation of color changes under different lighting conditions. It is used to detect color matching in paints and the phenomenon of metamerism, ensuring that product colors remain consistent across various lighting environments.
Selection
When selecting, consider the matching of the light booth size with the sample dimensions, configure common light source types such as D65 and TL84, confirm the lifespan and replacement costs of the light sources, check the design of light-blocking baffles to avoid interference from ambient light, and verify compliance with industry standards such as ASTM D1729.
