Assembled goods like kitchen appliances, home furnishings, and consumer electronics can be comprised of many parts, often made from different materials by different suppliers. Evaluating color in a custom fit-and-finish room under controlled lighting can ensure all parts match after assembly.
A harmony room, also referred to as a fit-and-finish room, is a custom-built visual evaluation room used to visually evaluate color under multiple lighting conditions. SpectraLight QC luminaries are mounted throughout the ceiling and/or walls to evaluate color under 7 light sources, including best-in-class dimmable filtered-tungsten halogen daylight and optional LED.
During R&D and final QC, evaluators can walk around the assembled item to evaluate color from every angle and ensure color integrity and harmony under multiple lighting conditions. SpectraLight QC is the gold standard for controlled lighting, complying with ISO: 3664, 3668, 13076, 23603, AATCC: EP9, ASTM: D1729, SAE: J361, DIN: 6173, CIE: S012/E, 51.2, and BSI: BS 950 Pt.2, for a solid quality control program.
Harmony Room
A custom fit-and-finish room for visual evaluation of large assembled items under controlled lighting. It contains SpectraLight QC luminaires, hung in various configurations, which offer best-in-class simulated daylight and a class A metamerism rating. Built-in sensors monitor and correct UV output and maintain inter-instrument agreement, and a counter shows total hours each light source has been used.
SpectraLight QC Light Booth
With 7 light sources including dimmable filtered-tungsten halogen daylight (class A) and optional LED, this top-of-the line light booth provides the most accurate daylight simulation available for optimum visual assessment. It can be used for final QC for smaller items, or by suppliers to validate accurate color on parts before shipment.
Farnsworth -Munsell 100 Hue Test
A global standard that has been used by governments and industry for more than 60 years, the FM 100 Hue Test evaluates and ranks color acuity for visual color evaluators in any industry.
SpectraLight QC luminaires enable checkpoints for visual approvals throughout the supply chain and ensure color harmony at final assembly. When used as a holistic solution, the SpectraLight QC reduces human error, standardizes conditions for visual assessment, and saves time and money.
