The Graphic Arts Technical Foundation (GATF) is now able to help printers analyze registration problems and can offer specific solutions to identified problems. The new service is made possible by Mitsubishi Lithographic Presses, which recently installed the Digital Register Analysis (DRA) at GATF. A method of establishing press performance standards, DRA automatically measures the precise unit-to-unit, sheet-to-sheet movement on the gear side, operator side, lead edge, tail edge and infeed.
