p>For gravure inks IGT Testing Systems markets the G1-5 printability testers for various printing widths. The latest addition to this range is the G1-7, able to print up to 70 mm wide.These testers print colour strips with gravure inks which can be used for many purposes. Specially designed for computerized colour measuring and colour matching systems. Saves costs because colour tests on the printing presses are no longer necessary.
Overview
The G1-5 and G1-7 printability testers produce colour strips which are suitable for many purposes, such as:
Measuring colour with colour measuring systems/spectrophotometers, colour matching systems
Feature
Simple to operate and of sturdy construction for intensive use over a long period;easy and quick to clean
Extensive processing possibilities for various substrates and gravure inks;substrate, ink and printing form simple and quick to change
Excellent reproducibility, high degree of simulation of actual practice.
Applications
Visual appraisal
Density measurements, including establishing colour and density tolerances and determination of coverage, wear resistance, scratch resistance, flexibility, adhesion and gloss, ink transfer, light fastness and resistance to chemicals
Testing printing quality
The G1-5 range of testers print many sorts of coated and uncoated materials: paper, board, plastic film, cellophane, laminate, etc.
The G1-5 range of testers is used in the following industries:
- printing ink, paper and board, printing
