508 Spektraldensitometer
An Affordable Solution For
Basic 4-Color Quality Control
The X-Rite 508 Spectrodensitometer brings the newest color control technology to a device designed specifically for basic 4-color reproduction.
Spectral technology gives the 508 unmatched performance in monitoring basic quality control for process color print jobs.The unit goes anywhere to quickly measure common density and dot functions.The 508 is ideal for basic commercial, publication packaging, and newspaper printing operations.
The 508 Is Ideal For Basic Prepress Applications
It measures GATF proofing bars, QuarkXPress® color bars, Ugra/Fogra color control elements and other quality control targets used during the prepress process.
The 508 Is Ideal For Newspapers
X-Rite includes specialized 4-color newsprint functions within the 508 to ensure color accuracy and consistency across press runs and over time. These include newsprint-specific density functions and gray balance.The 508 achieves precise color quality control with newsprint and inserts by simultaneously measuring the densities of cyan, magenta, and yellow in a special News mode. Simply measure a three-color gray bar, masthead, banner, weather map, or another color element. The 508 instantly informs you whether any of the colors need adjusting.
Spectrally Based
All of X-Rite’s 500 Series models capture high-resolution spectrophotometric data, which is used as the basis for all of our color and density values. X-Rite’s spectral technology produces the highest level of inter-instrument agreement available in densitometers today.This means you can trust X-Rite’s 500 Series technology to give you the most accurate, consistent, comparable color measurements from different presses, among suppliers, between customer and the printing facility, and from two or more printing sites.
Large Interactive Display
The 508 boasts a large, crisp graphic display configurable for left- or right-handed operation.This same high-resolution display also features full menu commands in multiple languages, to meet the needs of most any location (including English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish, Chinese and Japanese plus additional languages).
Intelligent User Interface
An intuitive key-pad uses universally understood up/down arrow keys and a select key to easily navigate menu items. For efficiency, we also included a “back” key, and an “escape” key, which quickly and easily takes users back to the main menu.
On Target
Another X-Rite first is our unprecedented microspot aperture size that is as small as 1.6mm x 3.2mm. This option makes short work of targeting special-color or density measurements. Just locate a bar code, some solid type, or a graphic element and quickly check the color.
Ergonomic Design
All of our new hand-held instruments apply ergonomic concepts to fit naturally in your hand.The targeting shoe clearly pinpoints the measurement area so you get the right measurement every time.
Rugged Construction
The 500 Series instruments absorb the inevitable bumps of everyday use.The 500 Series carries the tradition of being perhaps the most durable instruments in the industry.You will get years of accurate and reliable performance.
