Automatic Ink Dispenser & InkFormulation Software

Formulate spot colours to dE < 1.5 and dispense each ingredient to a tolerance of ±3g, monthly saving from reduced ink costs and used-ink inventory can reach up to $12,000 - 15,000. Contact us to see how this solution can be applied to your plant!

Bid farewell to claims from incorrect printed colors from manual ink mixing process, which is inherently non-accurate, dependent on operators’ skills, and time-consuming. Custom-colour input using eXact spectrophotometer or Pantone® database is now possible, coupled with automatic formulation and dispensing to weight/viscosity setpoints. In addition, the developed Automatic Ink Dispenser can also reuse leftover inks, which would reduce the material costs, as well as associated storage and handling.

When an accurate color has been dispensed, the bardown proofer allows instant proofing on customer-requested substrates, which would give the converter the ability to actively manage the final print quality.
