GRIPdigital TECHKON DMS910 Digital MicroScope Raises the Bar for
CTP Plate Calibration
LaGrange, IL, September 2003-The TECHKON DMS910 Digital MicroScope-being
shown for the first time at Graph Expo 2003 in Booth 5414-is twice
as accurate, consistent and repeatable as any other handheld plate
measurement device on the market today. The GRIPdigital TECHKON
DMS910 Digital MicroScope measures conventional screens from 75lpi
to 300lpi, the widest latitude in the industry. According to GRIPdigital
president Greg Imhoff, "The TECHKON DMS910 Digital MicroScope
provides linearity and repeatability of ±0.5 percent when
measuring conventional screens at 150lpi, traceable to the FOGRA
standard. In addition, the device measures stochastic screens as
fine as 10 microns. Halftones are easier to see and can be measured
more quickly using the GRIPdigital TECHKON DMS910, which can readily
fingerprint any tonal curve, in color. The handheld GRIPdigital
TECHKON DMS910 operates on the same principal as the laboratory
planimeters used by plate manufacturers to benchmark imaging systems."
The GRIPdigital TECHKON DMS910 Digital Microscope incorporates
renowned German optics with high-resolution camera technology,
and comes complete with all software necessary to quickly preview
and record the plate values being read. Halftone image measurement
is displayed in both inch and metric values, and the screen angle
is automatically displayed.
TECHKON GmbH has a 20-year history of developing and commercializing
the finest color measurement and quality control devices available.
The Digital MicroScope DMS 910 is a highly accurate measuring device
especially for the quality control of printing plates. It is used
successfully worldwide by computer-to-plate users, as well as by
plate and platesetter manufacturers, as a reference instrument.
