Countdown to Drupa: Four new Quadtech products at Drupa

And so, it was but natural that QuadTech, a leader in colour and inspection technology for the printing industry, will offer four new products at Drupa (Hall 15, Stand D50). In addition, the company has created a roster of leading industry experts to participate in a Print Performance Speaker Series at the QuadTech booth, to help printers achieve superb print quality and consistently meet the demands of their customers.

Fritchen said, “Rather than rest on the success of our colour, register, and defect detection technology, we have invested heavily in raising the bar for functionality, efficiency and reliability. We can’t wait to unveil exciting new additions to our stable of proven AccuCam, MultiCam, SpectralCam, Autotron and Inspection products!”

The products which will be unveiled are:

A quality product for packaging and converting that will allow press operators to collect and process colour measurements to facilitate the correction of ink formulations. A live demonstration of the system will be available throughout the show.

A defect detection product for packaging and converting that will facilitate fast detection and disposition of the tiniest defects. This ensures that defective product will not go out the door.

A colour measurement product for packaging and converting that provides accurate inline L*a*b* measurements, which reduces make-ready time and ensures all printed products are within your customer’s colour specifications.

A colour-to-colour register product for newspaper printers that will simplify operation and provide a high quality, low-cost solution.
