Essen, Germany — TECHKON is showcasing innovative Inline Spectrophotometer technology at the DRUPA 2024, from May 28 – June 7 this year. Available are the SpectroVision inline color measurement system for packaging printers and the SpectroEdge ES7500 customizable integration kit exclusively for press manufacturers (OEM).

The SpectroVision Inline Color Measurement System will be displayed live at the TECHKON booth (Hall 9 / A03) and is the world’s most innovative In-Line Color Measurement System built for any flexo, digital, and offset web printers. Imagine a combination of a spectrophotometer, web viewer, bar code grader, and full feature suite of color management QC software in one!

Real-time Color Measurement, at Full Speed. Get real-time color measurements at full press production speeds – no more stopping the press to take measurements. True spectrophotometer – measure an entire color bar in a single printed impression.

Cut Make-Ready time by 50%. Operators see instant PASS/FAIL & color difference results with intuitive and easy to understand graphics. InkCheck technology provides ink density adjustments to achieve lowest possible deltaE’s on press.

No more costly Re-makes. Period. Detect and resolve problems early, ensure roll to roll consistency. Trend charts for density, delta (?E), TVI, and more monitor the real-time status for operators.

The SpectroEdge Inline Spectrophotometer for Digital Press Manufacturers has been designed for inclusion inside a wide variety of digital print engines. This award-winning technology is already inside many major offset and digital printing presses today, including Komori, Ricoh, Manroland, K&B, Ryobi, Mitsubishi and more. It is a compact and highly accurate scanning spectrophotometer that can measure 3,000 samples per-second which allows it to measure at full production press speeds.

Inclusion of SpectroEdge inside a digital press allows for linearization, calibration, ICC profiling, and color quality measurements to occur in real-time and without operator intervention for increased color accuracy, increased color consistency, and a more seamless user experience.

The powerful SpectroEdge technology is custom designed for the integration into printing presses in packaging and digital printing. Also in industrial production systems for film and paper manufacturing our inline systems are used for quality assurance. Stop by Hall 9 Booth A03 to speak with a representative about OEM integration options into your press!
