How to Select a Suitable chroma meter

Chroma meter is an instrument used to measure the color difference of objects. It can also be called colorimeter, pigment colorimeter.

CD-320PRO Portable Colorimeter

Automatically compare the color difference between the template and the inspected object, and output CIE_ Lab three groups of data and △ E, △ L, △ a, △ b four groups of color difference data after color comparison, which are the basis for quality inspection of products.

Secondly: Budget, according to the actual budget of the company or yourself, whether you want to buy imported or domestic products. If you think you have enough budget and are interested in imported products, you can consider imported products. After all, it is not your fault to have more money! If you are interested in domestic color difference meters, you can also learn more. After so many years of development, the performance of domestic chroma meter is completely comparable to that of imported chroma meter. More importantly, the price is much more favorable than that of imported chroma meter, and the after-sales time of importedchroma meter is long and the cost is high, which is also the reason why more and more enterprises choose domestic chroma meter in recent years.

Of course, there are also advantages and disadvantages of domestic ones. A number of color difference instrument manufacturers were originally agents, but they began to make instruments later, with average R&D strength. While LISUN has been researching and developing colorimeters for ten years, with a group of doctors and masters in optical engineering as the technical force and strong research and development strength. Since its establishment in 2013, the company has successively obtained 4 invention patents, 4 utility model patents and 2 software copyrights.

Performance configuration of chroma meter
1. You should know which kind of color difference instrument is suitable for your industry. Each industry has different requirements for color difference accuracy, namely △ Eab. If △ Eab is between 0-1, you must choose an instrument with higher accuracy; These are generally rubber and plastic, paint and paint industries; If you do not need high accuracy, you can also choose a general color difference instrument.

2. You need to know the shape of your products. At present, the test aperture of the general colorimeter is 4mm or 8mm; If your product is cambered or the size is very small, you need to consider the problem of test aperture; Of course, it can also be specially ordered as follows:

Large Aperture (LAV): 2.54 cm (1 inch)
Medium Aperture (MAV): 1.5 cm (0.6 in.)
Small Aperture (SAV): 0.75 cm x 1.0 cm (0.3 in x 0.4 in)
VSAV: 0.3 cm x 0.8 cm (0.12 in x 0.31 in)

3. Whether there is national metrological certification. This instrument is a measuring instrument. It is necessary to know whether the product can meet the national measurement requirements. Otherwise, if there is a dispute, your data can not be referenced. In general, for a color difference meter worth buying, there are many factors worth considering besides the above main factors.
