Manufacturers of textiles testing instruments and quality managers employ the Color Matching Cabinet as their main device to assess colors under varying standardized light conditions. This device erases all possible inconsistency that naturally occurs when only exterior illumination or human perception standards are applied. The Color Matching Cabinet acts as a major tool for manufacturing color assessments when textile makers deal with dyeing, printing, and finished materials.
The Color Matching Cabinet provides essential visual assessment of color under three lighting conditions: D65 (daylight), TL84 (store light), and UV (ultraviolet), supplementing the need for color accuracy in textiles and apparel.
How the Color Matching Cabinet Tester Works
The Color-matching cabinet Tester accepts textile samples for simultaneous exposure to different light sources. A visual assessment can be made comparing the test sample to a standard reference when the operator uses consistent lighting conditions to discern color differences and detect metamerism and other mismatches.
Using simple controls, the operator can switch lighting conditions, while the cabinet's glare-free space maintains a neutral light for giving reliable test results. Samples under test need to retain uniform and consistent color characteristics when viewed in different lighting conditions, including those found in stores, homes, and outdoors.
The Color Matching Cabinet Advantages
- It measures the colors to avoid metamerism using multiple light conditions, but most importantly, the assessment of the Metamerism test through this system.
- The testing system is not limited to meeting the ISO and ASTM specifications but also those of CIE and many other organizations related to color matching for textiles.
- Not only is the interface user-friendly, but it's also suitable for laboratory and industrial and on-site production settings because of this simplicity.
- It provides reliable visual measurement outputs that contribute to the development of quality processes.
- Such a device has excellent, robust materials that permit everlasting performance under constant and heavy operational use.
Application of Color Matching Cabinet:
- Textiles use color-matching cabinets to measure color consistency in fabrics in production and at different dye lots.
- Evaluates best examinations in apparel and fashion accessories paired with different lighting conditions built at a brand's credibility for producing the same look.
- The Color Matching Cabinet ensures that all textile and upholstery materials will have the same visual aesthetics, which in turn will be maintained by the manufacturers.
- Quality Control Labs use this as a major instrument to achieve precision testing, certification, and compliance assessments.
- Color Matching Cabinets are used in Research Labs, where they are employed to assess new dye chemicals and materials besides fabric finishes.

Q1. For what primary purposes is a color-matching cabinet used?
Ans. The Color Matching Cabinet is used for assessing and comparing colors under controlled and standardized conditions of illumination. Its basic concept is to recognize and safeguard against the segmented conditions where a color appears to be one color under one light source and another color when viewed under another type of light. Thus, the cabinet facilitates color consistency of products through production batches and accurate quality-control tests, particularly in the textile, plastic, paint, and packaging industries.
Q2. How many light sources are there in the cabinet, and what are they?
Ans. According to the CIE international standards, the Color Matching Cabinet is provided with five standardized light sources to permit accurate color evaluations to be made under varying lighting conditions:
- D65 (Artificial Daylight): 2 Nos.
- TFL (Tungsten Filament Light): 4 Nos.
- TL84 (Point of Sale Light): 1 No.
- UVB (Ultraviolet Light): 1 No.
- CWF (Cool White Fluorescent): 1 No.
In conjunction with each other, these light sources give a comprehensive perspective on how colors will appear in different environments.
Q3. What features are there that allow for the cabinet's accuracy and reliability?
Ans. Accuracy and reliability stem from several aspects of its construction:
- The 45 views will reduce glare demand for uniform viewing conditions.
- An hour meter, imported from Germany, records each light standard lamp's accumulated usage.
- Having a time totalizer capable of logging up to hundreds of thousands of hours.
- The cabinet could be constructed from hardboard, plywood, or steel, giving it durability and professionalism.
- It is manufactured as per ASTM standards, which each country uses to comply with the relevant international method.
Q4. What are the typical industries that benefit from using this cabinet?
Ans: Typically, industries benefiting from such a cabinet would include
- A Color Matching Cabinet is used in a multitude of industries, such as
- Textiles & Garments: to ensure fabric shades match
- Paints & Coatings: for color matching between different applications
- Plastics: for reproducible appearances of molded parts
- Printing & Packaging: to assess accurate reproduction of brand" colors
- Automotive: for color matching of interior and exterior materials
It plays a crucial role in quality assurance and brand consistency for any industry where color matching is critical.
Q5. Is the Cabinet for Color Matching easy to use?
Ans: Yes, the Color Matching Cabinet was equipped to be easy to use, even for untrained personnel. It has:
- Clearly labeled switch controls for different light sources
- Easy operation with minimal setup required
- Simple maintenance
- User instruction manual available as a quick reference
This makes it a perfect design for quality control laboratories, production lines, and research facilities.
