Ink Innovation Begins with Autura Ink
Accelerate your ink development with Autura Ink, a comprehensive ink formulation and quality control solution for ink suppliers, printers, and converters. As a cloud-based platform, Autura Ink can be accessed from anywhere and provides a single platform for all formulation, storage, approval, retrieval, and quality control needs for offset, flexo, gravure, and screen-printing inks.
Quickly Identify Ink Color Variations
Every minute a press is down due to mismatched color leads to lost profits. With integrated BestMatch, operators can now confidently determine if a color can be attained by modifying film thickness, viscosity, or press settings, or if the ink recipe needs adjustment. This helps restore press performance swiftly, minimizing downtime.
Avoid Press Downtime
If the on-press color fails to meet specification, Autura's Quick Correction feature facilitates the necessary ink formula additions to ensure that the press gets back on color to resume operations quickly.
Create Error-Proof Ink Formulation Templates
Autura Ink streamlines staff onboarding and reduces the risk of costly mistakes. Users can set up formulation templates with predetermined settings tailored to specific customer use cases. This enhances repeatability and productivity so that the full team can efficiently handle diverse formulation requirements.
Automatically Detect and Correct Bronzing Issues
Autura Ink’s IFS 7.0 formulation engine detects bronzing anomalies and automatically corrects them during recipe formulation. As part of the Autura Desktop Assortment Builder, this feature ensures your ink data is bronzing-proof from the start—helping operators avoid costly defects, reduce waste, and deliver consistent print quality.
Standardized, Operational Efficiency
Autura provides a centralized platform to ensure all users access the same up-to-date version, available anytime, anywhere.
Secure Cloud-Based Platform
Autura cloud-based technology instills confidence that your data is secure, with minimal local IT support needed.
Efficient Ink Assortment Views
Autura's assortment views enhance the ability to manage ink assortments and eliminates redundancy.
