Lithec to Feature LithoFlash Running Live at drupa 2024

Lithec announces its participation at drupa 2024 on May 28 to June 7, 2024. In addition to its presence in Booth F13 in Hall 16, Lithec will be running live across the aisle in the RMGT Booth E11.

“DRUPA will showcase the new product developments that enable our “Color Rules” Progam, a roadmap for successful color management,” says Clyde Tillman, President, Lithec USA. “We will show a new designed LithoScan Console with features that enhance productivity in the pressroom. We want to share our experience for how to manage the process with the industry, and we have built a roadmap that we believe every printer should implement to maximize their savings and achieve color consistency.”

Visitors to the Lithec booth will be given demonstrations of the industry-leading LithoFlash system with a newly designed LithoScan Console. This new console will demonstrate various functions like densitometric and spectral measurement, the opportunity to inspect sheets and make sheet-to-sheet comparisons, or PDF-to-sheet comparisons. LithoFlash will also be running live in the RMGT booth across the aisle from the Lithec booth in Hall 16, on the RMGT 1060 LX, a 1,060 mm format 6-color offset press.

Lithec's LithoFlash technology eliminates the need for manual color bar measurements by reading the color bar in real time while the press is running. Lithec LithoFlash is available on all new sheetfed offset presses, and it can also be retrofitted onto presses from various brands, including Heidelberg, RMGT, Komori, KBA, Manroland, and Mitsubishi. Additionally, Lithec offers offline inspection systems that are compatible with all press manufacturers and models. Lithecinspection tables can simultaneously support up to four presses.

With more than 1,500 installations in printing plants worldwide, Lithec's inline and offline color control and inspection systems have been well-received by commercial printers, packaging printers, and converters. The reported benefits include decreased makeready time, reduced waste substrate, and consistent production quality throughout print runs.
