INSPECTION/COLOR CONTROL SYSTEMS -- Guarding the Web

Circle 391 on Reader Service Card

The CLC PLUS system from Web Printing Controls uses only one sensor head per web surface to perform both register and density functions. By having a 1⁄16˝ target bar, initial register alignment is critical, because the targets could be covered by the bleed. CLC PLUS finds and scans an initial register target to pull in register fast. The system then automatically switches to the 1⁄16˝ (.063˝/1.5mm) or 7⁄64˝ (.109˝/2.6mm) total white space color bar to adjust and maintain color density while correcting for color register simultaneously.
