Albin Baranauskas, managing director at Techkon, claims that it’s the first scan-spectrophotometer in the market which is able to scan up to a length of two meters with a speed of up to 40 cm/second applying the new measuring conditions M0 to M3 according to ISO 13655.
He said, “There was a change in the ISO standard in 2013, which could not be used on the market because the ICC profiling was missing. Just two years ago, there was the kick-off from BVDM, ECI and FOGRA providing the new ISO standard for substrates with regard to brightness.”
He added, “This is a very universal device, because it is a combination of handheld device as well as a scanning device. It can be used to measure colour bars, control splits, G7, customised colour strips.”
The instrument is equipped with a high resolution spectral sensor and an automatic switchable polarisation filter. “It allows shorter pre- setting time of the printing press, less paper waste and higher print quality. Customised print control strips as often used in flexo printing can be analysed quickly," said Baranauskas.
