Developed by TQC Sheen, our paint testing specialist brand, these powerful color assessment cabinets enable you to carefully examine everything from inks and paints through to plastics, cosmetics, textiles, knitwear, food, paper, colorants and more.
You can use our multi-source viewing systems as illuminating paint inspection lights. Select from a range of light sources that assess everything from gloss and metamerism through to structure and damages.
When you choose a TQC color assessment cabinet and rely on us for your industrial coating inspection you get a removable viewing table and runtime counter with your purchase.
Our color assessment cabinets are easy on the eye. Both the interior and the exterior are finished to the highest standard of quality.
TQC color assessment cabinets are equipped with a 110V / 220V switch and they’re extremely stable. The easy-to-use controls make it a doddle to switch between paint inspection light sources without any flickering.
Our microprocessor controlled color assessment cabinets allow you to switch between different paint inspection light sources instantly. So you can quickly and conveniently check the color difference of goods under different light conditions.
When it’s time to change the lamps our color assessment cabinet will let you know. It correctly records the usage time of each lamp group. For example, you’ll need to change the D65 paint inspection lamp after 2000 hours, to ensure the most accurate results.
Our color assessment cabinet comes with a UV paint inspection light source to examine samples containing fluorescent optical brighteners or whitening dye.
TQC colorboxes feature two daylight paint inspection light sources that conform to international testing standards including ISO 3668.
Our color assessment cabinets are available in both 60cm and 120cm wide options.
Our color assessment cabinets were built to satisfy the most stringent of national and international testing standards including ASTM D1729, ISO 3668 and ISO 3664.
We like to share our lessons learnt over many decades of making color assessment cabinets. For example, here’s an Industrial Physics blog that explores how to assess the quality of paint used for cars.
It’s really easy to use our industry-leading color assessment cabinets. Just plug in, switch on and press the D65 lamp button to light it up. You can use more than one paint inspection light source at the same time – just select the appropriate buttons.
Next up, place your samples at the center of the color assessment cabinet. If you’re using the paint inspection light(s) to check two or more samples at once then it’s best to place each in parallel and avoid overlapping them before observing.
When you’re finished, simply switch off the colorbox using the one/off key.
Our color assessment cabinet timers show you the total service time of the cabinet. While the total operating time of each individual light source (F, TL84 or UV) is displayed and recorded.
