IGT AIC2-5T2000: Multi-purpose printability tester with dual print shaft
IGT Testing Systems has for many decades been supplying the well-known AIC2-5 printability tester for making numerous tests on different substrates and inks in quality control and research.
- Tests small quantities of ink and substrate in conditions simulating actual practice
- Makes colour strips with various inks on different substrates, which can be used for numerous purposes.
- Saves costs because many tests do not need to be made on the printing presses.
- High repeatability and reproducibility
- Simple to operate
- Extensive range of accessories
- Large range of possible tests
- Consistent results
- The original ISO 3783 compliant pick tester
Documentation
APPLICATIONS
The test strips made on the AIC2-5 printability tester are suitable for many purposes:
- measuring colour with colour measuring systems/spectrophotometers
- use in colour matching systems
- visual appraisal
- density measurements, including establishing tolerances
- determination of coverage, scratch resistance, wear resistance, flexibility, adhesion and gloss, ink transfer (in g/m2), light fastness and resistance to chemicals
- testing of printing quality, picking, wet pick and wet repellence, roughness, print penetration, Heliotest, set-off, striking through, mottle, loose and weakly bound paper articles
The AIC2-5 tester prints on different materials like paper, board, plastic film, cellophane, laminate, metal, etc. The AIC2-5 tester is used in the following industries:
- printing ink, paper and board, printers
- metal, plastic and packaging industries
- resin, lacquer and coating industries
- raw material industry
- training centres
