Techkon SpectroDensPrecise Print Color Control

GERMAN ENGINEERED

DESIGNED FOR CONVENIENT USE

• Unique slide view port for positioning

• Quick measurement & calibration

• Responsive feel in everyday use

• Ergonomic one-handed use

WORKS WITH BOTH SPOT AND PROCESS COLORS

For CMYK process colors the ink density, % dot area and gray balance are displayed. For spot colors the spectral measurements are converted to CIE L* a* b*. Displayed ΔE values enable control of critical brand colors.

SIMPLE PASS/FAIL DISPLAY

Compares measured color values against color standards (GCMI, Pantone, etc.) or customer specified color reference

targets. Displays color plots and color difference values.

PREDICTS BEST MATCH

Suggests ink density change for best match and predictedΔE (e.g. increase magenta density 11 pts. to reduce ΔE).

RAPIDLY SCAN COLOR BARS

Integrated wheels guide the handheld without a needfor attachments. Perform ISO checks in 3 seconds flat.

G7™ COMPLIANCE IS A SNAP

G7 feature displays recommended ink key adjustmentsfor CMY density to achieve neutral values according toG7 specification. This makes it easier to implement G7.

DESKTOP SOFTWARE INCLUDED

SpectroDENS comes with desktop software to helpcreate, edit and manage your color libraries. GenerateQC reports. Export data. Manage instrument settings.

PRESS WIDTH DENSITY SCAN

Unique display shows density variations across the entirewidth of the press on a single screen. It also recommends

density adjustments for each section.

CONFIRM PROOFS AGAINST ISO STANDARDS

Scan control wedge in seconds to confirm proofs against ISO12647-7 and known datasets like GRACol, SWOP5, IFRA,

UGRA/FOGRA.

TOP 10 REASONS

“OUR CUSTOMERS SAY...

“We use the Techkon SpectroDens here. Works great for us, includesmeasurement export, nice trending features and a lot of features builtin to one device. The ink check feature is very user friendly as well...”

“You are absolutely right the Techkon SpectroDens is very rugged andreliable.”

“Techkon is a real rising star right now with their current instrumentline-up. All their instruments are very fast and handle great (goodergonomics).”

“The Techkon SpectroDens has the better UI, superior ergonomics,measurement speed, and nice *free *software.”

“We have both and the Techkon is better designed all the way around.If for no other reason, you can set it directly on the patch you want to measure and take a reading.”
