PlateScope

Are you measuring your plates? You should be!
Just think of the costs of incorrect plates. The lost time, make-ready costs and press down-time waiting for the corrections. It can add up to a lot of money, even on a typical job. Is it worth it? Can you afford not to have a plate control solution?

PlateScope offers advanced, unsurpassed accuracy and repeatability for the latest plate and screening technologies. It supports all current screening technologies, including AM, FM, XM and hybrid screen types.

Accurate
PlateScope is equipped with two cameras; a color camera for positioning, and a high resolution monochrome camera for measurements. With the high resolution measurement camera, the edges of dots are accurately detected, even for thin screenings.

Easy to Use
The colorful, icon-based interface makes PlateScope easy to operate. 
PlateScope's patent-pending auto-contrast video targeting system allows you to easily identify the targeted measurement areas you want — even from a full arm's length away or in darker environments.

FOGRA Measuring Bar (FMB) Support:
PlateScope supports measurements in compliance with the FOGRA Measuring Bar (FMB), aligning your plate measurements to the official reference standard from the Fogra Institute, if that is your reference of choice.
