CR25-CR26 COLOR REGISTER CONTROL page 6
CR25
The CR25 register control system has been developed using advanced electronic
technologies, such as high-speed matrix video cameras, specially made for the
purpose. These have made it possible to enormously reduce the space occupied by
the register marks (micromarks) for automatic control of circumferential and lateral
color register on web-offset presses in commercial and newspaper printing.
CR26
The cameras can be positioned, on request, between the last printing unit and the
drier, in order to ensure immediate response to variations in register and thus
further reduce the number of waste copies. The cameras read the marks on free
paper, unsupported by a roller, with a tolerance of oscillations in the web of ± 7 mm.

CR25-CR26
COLOR REGISTER CONTROL
WITH MICROMARKS
TECHNICAL FEATURES
• CR25 register control system uses specially made high-speed matrix video
cameras, which make it possible to reduce the register marks (MicroMarks) in very
small spaces (7 x 7 mm).
• Multiprocessor units with DSP (Digital Signal Processing) Technology.

cylinder revolution.
• Speed of operation from 15 to 1500 m/min.

intervention.
• Correction of sidelay error with or without print.
• Completely automatic register mark search and lock on.
• Video cameras can be mounted on motorized bars presettable from the control
console, which enables automatic positioning on the marks.
• LED light sources with a lifetime of over 100,000 hours (11 years).
• When register errors exceed the preset value, an alarm and the waste ejector can
be activated automatically.
• The system is configured for remote support through a dedicated VPN connection.

COLORSCAN
SPECTRO-DENSITOMETRIC
COLOR CONTROL SYSTEM
TECHNICAL FEATURES
• COLORSCAN is an automatic closed-loop color control using in-line spectrophoto-
metric and densitometric measurements.
• Fast and perfect color spectrophotometry/density control, along with a userfriendly
operation and a fully-automatic start-up ensure the best quality of the printed
product at any press speed (from 50 to 1000 m/min) and during the entire production.
• A specially made video camera allows measurement and control of CIE L*a*b*
values through the reading of images or a dedicated color bar with customer
specified dimensions.
• Precise and fast corrections on the ink keys are made comparing the measured
values and the values of a pre-press file.

MEASURE
OF COLOR PARAMETERS
FOR 4 INK KEYS
SIMULTANEOUSLY
• LED light sources, with a lifetime of over 100,000 hours (11 years).
• Scanning field of 160 mm (4 ink keys) associated to high-speed camera
movement, guarantee reduced time for scanning the whole web.
• Elimination of manual measurements.
• Repeatability and maximum accuracy in measuring the densitometric values:
± 3% of average value.
• The chromatic parameters displayed in real time are:
- Optical density
- Dot Gain
- CIE L*a*b* values
- Chromatic balance
- Trapping
- Slur
- Print contrast
- Differences from set-point and real measured color “Δ ”
• Database containing all measured chromatic values with consequent availability
of quality reports up to single ink key details in any moment.
• Optical and/or acoustic signal when the dot gain exceeds the preset value.
• System COLORSCAN can manage data from pre-press, according to CIP3
standards, in order to preset inking profiles.
• The system is configured for remote support through a dedicated VPN
connection.

PM3
PAPER MONITORING WEB SURFACE
ANALYSIS AND DEFECT INSPECTION
TECHNICAL FEATURES
• PM3 System continuously monitors paper from the reel stand up to the press
delivery. It allows the operator a quick means to distinguish the web breaks due to
the paper quality.
• For each roll, the system evaluates the average value of white paper in CIE L*a*b*
coordinates.
• High resolution color cameras detect the critical defects of white paper, supplying
information about the origin of breaks and paper quality with pictures and video
clips that can be taken in different areas of the press. As option, cameras on mobile
brackets can be supplied.
• Automatic loading of data relevant to the job and to the reel through connection to
either the company network or to a bar-code reader.

SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
LYNEX combines one or more 4K-pixel RGB linear cameras for an accurate
real time inspection of the entire web width at production speeds exceeding
HIGH SPEED 1000 m/min. The information from the cameras is processed through powerful
hardware to provide accurate and reliable image inspection. Additional linear
LINEAR CAMERAS cameras can be dedicated to inspect the printed surface for the detection of
defects down to 0.01 mm.
LYNEX provides as standard the real time display of the entire print repeat.
REAL TIME Grafikontrol’s dedicated image processor displays the live image at EVERY
REPEAT as a full web viewer on a 32” or 55” UHD monitor. The operator can
FULL PRINT analyze the print conditions on the whole web and immediately intervene as
REPEAT DISPLAY needed. When a defect is detected the relative position is highlighted on the
screen.
DIGITAL ZOOM
ON IMAGE
“Easy and efficient” are the best terms to describe the new LYNEX operator
MODERN interface. Press operators will not struggle to learn how to use the system
functions, the gestures and actions are the same common ones used in
MULTITASKING smartphones and tablets. LYNEX is operated through a standard 23” HD 16:9
USER INTERFACE multitouch screen. Operators can navigate from screen to screen by just
touching or sliding the image.

SYSTEM FUNCTIONS
• Digital Zoom: 6X digital zoom allows the operator to digitally zoom on certain details
over the entire print repeat by using the full print repeat monitor.
• Gallery of Defects: the chronological sequence of the defects and a scrolling function
provide easy evaluation of the process.
• Different Sensitivity Levels: the operator can define the sensitivity for each classification
of defect according to the job specification.
• Masking: undesired defects which cannot be removed from the printing, can be
completely masked to avoid constant alarms.
• Sensitivity by Zone: normally the system works with sensitivity levels set for the entire
print repeat, this special software allows the operator to select up to 24 zones (of various
sizes) which can have different sensitivities for each type of defect.
• Job Report & Statistics: for the total traceability of waste the system produces a defect
map for each printed roll showing in chronological order the defect, its coordinates and
a visual image for the reviewer.
DEFECT
ANALYSIS
• PDF/LIVE Master Comparison: this software, used during a job make-ready, allows an
easy and quick comparison of the live printing with the relative PDF pre-press file to
check for any differences. The in-line comparison is of big help when printing different
text languages or to detect faulty engravings. This function allows to detect errors of
plate engraving and plate positioning.
• ∆-Color Monitoring: through the live print repeat tab displayed on the multi-touch screen
the operator can easily select up to 24 points of measurement to monitor the color trend.
The ΔE values are continuously updated and visualized.
