IGT Testing Systems has developed the F1 to test flexo and gravure inks in combination with the substrates which are printed with these inks. The F1 saves on costs because testing on the printing press is reduced very strongly. APPLICATIONS The F1 printability testers produce colour strips which are suitable for many purposes, such as: • Measuring colour with colour measuring systems/ spectrophotometers • Use in colour matching systems • Visual appraisal • Density measurements, including establishing colour and density tolerances and determination of coverage, wear resistance, scratch resistance, flexibility, adhesion and gloss, ink transfer, light fastness and resistance to chemicals • Testing printing quality. http://www.igt.nl/igt-testers/ink/f1-basic
