Description:
Frank Burgos has been involved in the flexographic printing industry since 1980, as a press operator, supervisor, operations manager, consultant and business owner. Here’s what he has to say about the differences between the X-Rite 500 Series instruments:
X-Rite 504
Use the 504 to measure density of CMYK colors. This is an entry level device, and does not measure dot area or dot gain. If you’re happy controlling just density, this is for you. 3-year warranty
X-Rite 508
The 508 measures the density of the CMYK colors, like the 504, but it also measures dot area and dot gain. This is the minimum for folks who want to apply curves to output films/plates. 3-year warranty
X-Rite 518
The 518 measures density, dot area, and dot gain, like the 508. However, press operators can also monitor trap and contrast and make needed adjustments during press runs. More applicable to the offset folks. 3-year warranty
