Colour science. Simplified.

QuadTech's ColorTrack™, a unique new colour management software for flexo and gravure packaging applications, is an industry-first highly adaptive "colour expert in a box" solution for packaging printers. With a variety of options for hand-held and inline configurations, the software facilitates fast, accurate press-side correction of ink formulations. Without any hardware modifications to the press, ColorTrack automates the process of delivering absolute consistency from press-to-press, shift-to-shift and plant-to-plant. With the optional InkWeigh™, press operators can view and weigh ink recipes received from the formulation software to easily make press-side corrections.

Color Measurement with DeltaCam™ makes advanced, inline spectral measurement affordable to individual Packaging print houses. For about half the cost of other inline systems, package printers can utilise accurate, automated L*a*b* measurement on film, paper or board -- ensuring that all printed product is within their customers' color specifications. The M1, M0 and ISO compliant technology enables printers to reduce time and waste while confidently maintaining color throughout the roll -- without the need to wait for a roll change to measure with a handheld device. For higher press speeds, the QuadTech SpectralCam™ delivers L*a*b* data for precise, cost-effective colour management -- in the image, in-line, on paper or film substrates. An optional high-resolution view of dot structure enables operators to quickly identify any issues, without production stoppages.

Perfect register. Simplified.

QuadTech's Autotron™ 2600 with ClearLogic™ register guidance system is an integrated, flexible and cost-efficient tool for minimising waste and improving print quality across packaging and decorative printing applications. A new generation of scanning heads lets you achieve complete control regardless of substrate, ink or printing technique. Autotron provides remarkably accurate control over every phase of production on virtually any gravure press, conventionally driven or shaftless. The system is equally suited to the printing of decorative materials, where precise register is essential to maintain pattern, repeat length and color consistency.

Defect management. Simplified.

The QuadTech® Inspection System provides true 100% inspection on 100% of your print or non-print product, web or sheet, 100% of the time. Utilising the most advanced algorithms in the industry, the inspection system can detect a wide variety of defects such as ink spots, register/colour variation, content issues and streaks. Unlike other defect detection systems that only scan small sample areas, the QuadTech Inspection System inspects the entire substrate width 100% of the time. The inspection system's modern high-definition user interface allows for a less cluttered, more intuitive user experience. The screen supports large image sizes for defect analysis and provides easy access to all inspection features.

QuadTech offers a complete defect management workflow solution, comprised of the Inspection System, PDF Verification, Web Viewing System, Live Viewer, Waste Management System, and Data Central for Inspection performance reporting.
