Ihara R720
Colour Reflection DensitometerMeasuring Colours - Densitometers can detect differences that are much smaller than be seen by the human eye. For example, variations of ink weights on press, so you can correct before the changes are visible and reduce wastage.

We are now pleased to be the UK distributors for the range of Ihara Measuring Instruments. These units combine top quality, high specifications and low cost.

The Ihara Range includes Colour Reflection Densitometers (which can also be supplied with a plate reading option - especially useful for CTP), Spectrophotometers for measuring colour directly, and Transmission Densitometers for those still using film.

A particular advantage of instrumental measurements is the ability to use numerical readings for Quality Control, and to ensure consistency of repeat jobs.

White Screen
DTP Viewer Model 520.151Colour Viewing - The eye is still one of the best ways to assess colour, and the only way to get an overall impression. But as the source of the colour comes from the original lighting, it is essential to is have the correct lighting conditions.

We offer the full range of White Screen Colour Viewing Equipment which includes DTP Viewers, Copy Holders, Transparency Viewers, Overhead Lighting and complete Proofing Stations - top quality products at economic prices.

For colour selection and colour matching, not only do you need good viewing conditions, but you also need to view under a range of lights, so the Agile Radiant™ Colour Viewing Cabinets we supply are ideal. A final visual check should always form part of a good QC process, and these lights provide consistent viewing conditions - very important when you are running day and night shifts -and the alternative light sources allow work to be viewed in conditions similar to those under which it will ultimately be seen, in a store or in the home.
