The eXact spectrophotometer makes color measurements quick and easy for brand managers, pre-media, ink suppliers, printers and converters, while
solving the widespread problem of measuring and matching colors on various substrates and surfaces.
With split-second measurement times and improved accuracy to simplify workflow, the eXact instrument is the first spectrophotometer in the industry to
offer customers a way to measure true daylight conditions by supporting all the M Standards inclusive of the complete M1.
For today's needs of matching proof to press across many substrates, the X-Rite eXact brings to the supply chain a simple-to-use device that is fully
compliant with ISO 13655:2009 measurement standards.
In addition to using advanced measurement technology, the new platform is easy to learn, thanks to the intuitive software and touch screen controls.
The eXact instruments can be set up to position key elements in the order most likely to be needed by personnel such as press operators and
operations managers, giving users instant access to the tools they need, often in a single click. The platform uses X-Rite Graphic Arts Standard
(XRGA) and Color Exchange Format (CxF™) to communicate color for easy data exchange.
With flexibility to match a company's requirements and budget, the eXact series of spectrophotometers works seamlessly with other powerful X-Rite
solutions for the printing industry, including Color iQC Print, InkFormulation 6, NetProfiler 3.0 and PantoneLIVE™ cloud-based color service that gives
brand owners a means to connect their whole supply chains.
Color iQC Print and PantoneLIVE shave days off projects by making sure that all the links in the supply chain – from brand owners and designers to
product production – have reliable and accurate color information when and where they need it.
