X-Rite eXact Basic Plus Densitometer

As a member of the eXact family of handheld color measurement instruments, the X-Rite eXact Basic Plus is designed for CMYK jobs and press operators — comparing production density measurements against stored standards with pass/fail indication. It brings efficiency to pressroom operations by automatically detecting color and patch type while decreasing measurement times and improving accuracy.

Benefits:

• Increased job productivity — reduces measurement times and improves accuracy with automatic detection of color and patch type
• Extensive densitometric tool set — verifies all aspects of density including ink trap, print contrast, and hue error for better control of the print process
• Room to grow — choose from four aperture sizes (1.5, 2, 4, or 6 mm) to measure across a range of applications

Rising above the rest:

• Protected Automated White Tile Calibration — shields the instrument's accuracy from press-room dust at all times, unlike exposed white-tile calibration on other instruments
• Three measurement light sources — versus two on competing instruments, delivering true ISO-defined circumferential illumination that reduces variation from angular rotation on textured, uncoated, or directionally printed media
• Most versatile aperture set — 1.5mm, 2mm, 4mm, and 6mm to fit different workflows and patch sizes; the popular 2mm spot captures enough printed dots while still measuring 3mm patches well
• End-to-end color management — software integration for ink formulation and quality control, plus global service offerings that reduce the risk of workflow downtime
