Flexo Image Analysis System

  • Product No:Flexo IAS-II
  • Manufacturer:Quality Engineering Associates Inc.

Quantitative analysis of dot%, line screen, and many other dot quality parameters (size, shape, location, screen angle); line and transmission quality analysis also available

Excellent measurement repeatability and reproducibility

Superior sensitivity and reliability in highlight dot measurements

Compact design with small footprint; no limit on plate size

High-resolution digital camera (1024x768 pixels) and optics (~3μm/pixel) for high line screen and small highlight dots

High intensity, collimated light source; allows analysis on any plate type and color

USB 2.0 high speed interface to PC; no battery or external power required

Process Control mode for routine plate quality monitoring and control by plate room operators and supervisors; or Interactive mode for product design, R&D and problem-solving by R&D and quality engineers

Pre-programmed test sequence in process-control mode; automated data logging into database, and graphical statistical process control reporting

Multiple options to meet all needs including: a) plate only, b) plate and print, c) plate only for process control, and d) plate and print for process control
