Prinect Image Control is available with the options of image error recognition and PDF inspection, which are carried out during a one-time scan of the sheet. Solid areas, screened images, and Mini Spots are all measured just the same for color control and quality evaluation purposes. This measurement system is particularly suitable for label and packaging printing, when color management needs to be absolutely identical for numerous repeats spread over the sheet. The new-generation Prinect Image Control 4 measures both the quality control strip and the entire print image. Thanks to its tracking feature, Prinect Axis Control supports a precise measurement process even when the print sheet is not straight.įull-sheet measurement with Prinect Image Control The device automatically detects the quality control strip on the print sheet and the paper white. One new development is that Axis Control now supports measuring condition M1 (taking into account optical brighteners in the paper). An autofocus function automatically compensates for different substrate thicknesses during the contactless measurement Working at a speed of 200 mm per second, it is the fastest measuring system in its class and is equally suitable for applications in commercial and packaging printing. Prinect Axis Control has had a similar overhaul. Prinect Axis Control has been further enhanced and supports measuring condition M1 Prinect Easy Control can take measurements under the standardized measuring conditions M1, M2, and M3.

The measuring device is integrated into the Prinect Press Center 3/XL 3 control station technology and connected to the central color database in Prinect Production Manager. Another new feature is the Netprofiler option for colorimetric calibration. The measuring device is charged via induction when in its park position. One new feature is that Prinect Easy Control can now also measure the small Dipco Micro print control strip (3.25 x 4?millimeter measurement field).

An integrated video camera supports manual adjustment in line with the position of the quality control strip (lead edge, center and rear edge of sheet). The system can take measurements at a speed of up to 135 mm per second, measuring an A3 sheet in less than four seconds. It is also easy to use and produces precise results. This gives users a great deal of flexibility. At its heart is a high-quality spectral measurement device that can simply be taken out of its mount and used for other purposes, such as calibrations in prepress. Now, Heidelberg has launched the next model of this successful measurement system onto the market. Since it was first rolled out in 2010, Prinect Easy Control has been installed on more than 800 Speedmaster sheetfed offset presses.

Prinect Easy Control – a flexible introduction to spectral color measurement technology “The consistent development of the entire Heidelberg spectral color measurement portfolio gives commercial and packaging print shops of all sizes the opportunity to optimize their color workflow, moving it closer to the smart print shop model – even as far as autonomous printing,” explains Jürgen Mittmann, Senior Manager Product Management Sheetfed at Heidelberg. That is precisely why Heidelberg has continuously developed spectral color measurement technology. Color control based on measured spectral values is the most promising method for achieving the desired colors as quickly as possible in commercial, label, and packaging printing.

In Prinect Easy Control, Prinect Axis Control, Prinect Image Control, and Prinect Inpress Control, Heidelberg offers the market four spectral measurement systems for print shops of all sizes and sheetfed offset presses of all performance classes.Įnd-to-end spectral measurement, patented color control, and a further enhanced Prinect color workflow facilitate rapid, low-waste job changes as well as quality monitoring and logging for production runs on all Speedmaster presses. The move is a response to the growing demands for efficient and dependable quality control in commercial, packaging, and label printing. “The Power of Color” is the slogan with which Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG (Heidelberg) has chosen to mark the start of its new financial year as it introduces extensive additions for its color measurement and control systemsĪnd for the Prinect color workflow.
