Spectro formulation and color correction
By connecting the spectrophotometer directly to the dispensing system, color corrections are suggested automatically by the spectro and executed directly by the dispenser, reducing by up to 90% the time needed to reach the correct color and cutting machine downtime caused by color changes by up to 50%.
Return buffer tanks for color families
Color-Family Returns Become Dosing Components: Different returned inks from the same color family: for example different red shades coming back from the printing presses, can be collected into the same drum positioned directly under the dispensing head.
