Des échantillons référents nominal et maximal permettent de définir la palette de couleur dans laquelle les pièces sont acceptées.
I believe this refers to "reference samples" and that "nominal et maximal" refers
to the admissible color spectrum for the parts.

Not my subject area, but this seems the obvious choice of translation. It may not mean much to you as the translator, but it should make sense to your customer.

nominal and maximum
Here nominal is the basic color. The maximum is when it is made darker or lighter the basic color transformed into. It means different shades of color that can be got from a basic color.

they refer to "acceptable" color samples, so perhaps "nominal and acceptable" would be suitable.
