Recently, we receive a custom inquiry for measuring metal button color. We separately measured the following two samples as target sample and sample to compare the LAB value.
Sample
Today we will introduce how to measure it with Benchtop spectrophotometer CS-820N.
It has 4 kinds of test calibers, we chose 6mm aperture size to measure the metal buttons.
Test Condition
1. Mode: Reflectance
2. Light Source: D65
3. Parameters need to Measure: CIE L*a*b, ΔE*ab
Test Method
One sample measure one same point to get the test result
The following are the test results for all 2 samples
