New Prinect Module - AxisControl
04/08/2002
Color measuring system for direct spectral quality checks in the
CP2000 Center
In Hall 8 at IPEX 2002 in Birmingham, Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG (Heidelberg) will be showcasing its solutions for the networked printshop. The latest solution is the AxisControl Prinect module, a standard color measuring system that has been fully integrated into the CP2000 Center press control system. Productivity and cost-effectiveness are boosted by a guided setup procedure which ensures fast inking-up and stable production right from the start.
The color measuring system in the CP2000 Center comprises an innovative sheet delivery and a movable measuring bar with measuring head. The new Prinect module uses spectrophotometric technology to measure the color bar on the print sheet and colorimetric technology to analyze it. It then calculates the control parameters for online ink control. AxisControl thus supports effective and direct quality checks on the CP2000 Center press control system. The module is operated and the results displayed via the CP2000 Center's touchscreen color display, the height and tilt of which can be adjusted. This ensures fast, reliable operation right from the start.
The trend towards smaller and smaller, top-quality runs means that measuring technology is becoming increasingly important in the setup procedure. Faster inking-up and continuous checks over the entire print run ensure top quality and effective workflows. AxisControl is available for all Speedmaster models, and is particularly suitable for the Speedmaster SM 52, SM 74, CD 74 and SM 74 DI models.
For industrial high-end applications, Heidelberg is demonstrating version 2 of its tried-and-tested Prinect module ImageControl. This color measuring system measures the entire print image, adopts color reference values from the digital prepress and generates color measuring data for generating ICC profiles.

With their advanced design, AxisControl and the CP2000 Center appear as a single unit, a feature that is carried through into the operating concept, which attaches particular focus to interactivity and providing the user with full visual control.
