The X-Rite eXact Auto-Scan is a versatile press side scanning device that provides flexibility for measuring color with spot, manual, and automated scanning capabilities.
The eXact Auto-Scan scans the entire color bar on button press automatically, it provides simultaneous M-mode measurement of density and color data on set targets to ensure a more accurate color delivery.
The eXact Auto-Scan integrates with closed loop solutions to deliver automated ink key adjustments while also decreasing make ready and improving color quality.
