Visual inspection results depend not only on the operator’s experience but also on the quality of the viewing conditions. planistar light booths provide a clearly defined inspection area in which colours, surfaces, particles and product characteristics can be assessed reliably.
This improves the comparability of inspection results, reduces incorrect assessments and makes quality decisions more consistent. Our standard-light booths for visual inspection, colour assessment and foreign-particle detection support reliable and efficient quality control in industry, medical technology, pharmaceutical and food production.
In contrast to color assessment under normal lighting conditions or daylight, the spectral composition of the light and thus the visual color impression remain unchanged in light booths. The areas of application are diverse, ranging from the sampling of paints, ceramics, and plastics to textiles.
External light influences are shielded by the booth design. Light color and brightness remain constant regardless of the time of day.
The lighting unit can be optionally equipped with one or two switchable light colors as standard. The inspection can then be carried out under different lighting conditions. The light colors can be freely selected from D30, D40, D50, or D65. Additional light colors available upon request.
In addition to standard light colors, UV light with 365 nm is also integrated (many objects and substances such as paints, dyes, adhesives, minerals, animals, and body fluids exhibit fluorescence, which means that the presence of these things can only be detected when illuminated with a UV light source).
In the development of the light, we have oriented ourselves to the following standards:
In this version, the light booth is designed with a white base housing and black insert panels. This configuration is primarily used in the medical technology or packaging industry. For other applications, it may be better to use a black base housing, which can be complemented with white insert panels.
Bottles or ampoules can be inspected for dark or light foreign particles depending on the background. This inspection concept creates as high a contrast as possible between the foreign particles and the background.
This allows light foreign particles to be clearly detected against the black background and dark foreign particles against the white background.
The lighting significantly supports the contrast and creates a comfortable inspection environment for the inspector.
This is precisely where our strength lies. Because planistar manufactures the lights in-house, we can produce customised backlighting with short delivery times.
So you don't have to follow our standard programme. We adapt exactly to your requirements and the conditions on site.
This saves you costs in theOur production processes are planned in such a way that a customised light has almost the same throughput as a standard light. The only difference is that the customised luminaire is precisely documented. This means that we are able to supply replacements even years later.

Lights direct from the manufacturer
When revising our product series, we always take sustainability into account, as even small details add up to make a big difference.
This includes saving resources and energy, the careful selection of materials used, as well as packaging and disposal.
Light booths are required wherever visual inspection of test parts in a consistent and reproducible environment is necessary.
The light booth accurately replicates light types, enabling the direct comparison of products that must exhibit specific color properties. A color matching booth/light booth is used wherever products need to maintain consistent color properties during manufacturing, such as for textiles, automotive components, ceramic products, cosmetics, as well as for the food industry, printing inks, and packaging.
It is typically equipped with two different light colors in D50 or D65.
However, other standard light types are also possible, depending on the end product's intended use (outdoor or indoor environment).
The inspector has a constant environment without disturbing external influences, in which they can assess the test specimen. The characteristics to be inspected may include:
The inspection conditions are customized according to customer specifications.
For example: The print on an insulin syringe must be legible at an illumination intensity of 100 lx.
Here, our light booth is used in the white/black combination.
Bottles, ampoules, or packaging can be examined for dark or light foreign particles depending on the background. A high contrast is created between the foreign object and the background.
This allows light foreign objects to be clearly detected against the black background, and dark foreign objects against the white background.
The lighting significantly enhances the contrast and creates a comfortable inspection environment for the inspector.
As part of Industry 5.0, traditional visual inspection is increasingly evolving into an intelligent, connected process. In addition to inspections carried out by employees, camera systems are increasingly being used to support inspection tasks, document results and ensure consistently high quality.
People remain at the centre of the process: modern technology assists employees with repetitive tasks, detects potential deviations at an early stage and provides relevant information directly at the workstation. Lighting, camera technology, image processing and digital process guidance can all be integrated into a single ergonomic inspection station.
planistar adapts the standard version to your specific application, components and inspection requirements. The result is a future-ready solution that combines human expertise with the capabilities of modern automation. We would be pleased to advise you.
