PRESET OPTIMIZATION

CIP3/4, TIFF, JDF and VPS files OPTIMIZED Preset colors 93% close to targets at the first try. Cost savings and workflow mastering.

CLOSED LOOP

Maintain color targets throughout the run: Reduce waste and upgrade quality.

OUR SECRET

Self Learning System

AN ADAPTIVE INCREMENTAL ALGORITHM BY INK KEY, SWEEP (DUCTOR), INK and SUBSTRATE BASED ON THE REAL POSITION OF EACH INK KEY (even after a manual move of the ink keys)

Improve significantly your efficiency and your profitability, WHATEVER THE CONDITIONS (s>ff, smooth or used ink key, hot, cold, wet or dry weather, new rolls, new ink) With highly accurate ink key management.

HOW IT WORKS?

Example for a single plate

and conventional CIP3

RUTHERFORD PRESET

optimization from a conventional CIP3

Ink keys setting based on only one pattern of curve per color unit (cylinder) .

Each Ink key is set according to its own curve, for the best accuracy and consistency.

BENEFITS FOR

Self Learning System
  • Reduce waste and global cost (paper and time): from 30% to 60% during make-ready and run, best return on investment.
  • Stabilize and standardize production and process whatever the model of press, wherever is the plant, whatever the experience of the team: higher marketability and efficiency, no return for low quality. Same print everywhere.
  • Fit your client’s needs on every press, in every plant, everywhere in the world - G7, PSO, commonality of colorcontrol, dashboard…
  • User friendly: make it easier, automatic, ergonomic and more efficient whatever the experience of the press operator - easier team management; fewer mistakes, better working conditions. Easy and fast implementation.
  • Local support: different time zones. (day & night shift).
  • Sustainable development: less energy, less paper, less ink.

CLOSE THE LOOP with X-Rite devices:

  • Exact Scan - Providing Color Measurement Excellence
  • Exact Auto-Scan - Ul7mate flexibility
  • IntelliTrax2 - Ultra-Fast Automated Press-Side Color Control

IntelliLoop & EasyLoop (closed loop soeware) by Rutherford Graphic Products:

Once you start the job, scan the color bar of a press sheet with a X-Rite device to get spectral and density data and IntelliLoop will take care of adjus>ng ink keys. During the press run, periodic scans of the color bar feed color data into IntelliLoop. The soeware will let the press operator know if there are any auto-adjustments needed to keep color consistent. Intelliloop gets you to color fast, every time.
