X-Rite launches cloud-based platform for inks

X-Rite introduces Autura Ink, a cloud-based ink formulation and quality control solution that enables ink suppliers, printers, and packaging converters to accelerate ink development. It is a centralized platform for all formulation, storage, approval, retrieval, and quality control needs for offset, flexo, gravure, and screen-printing inks.

“Autura Ink is built on a serverless and secure architecture that can be easily implemented due to its highly intuitive user interface, minimizing the need for operator training. It integrates with X-Rite spectrophotometers, including the eXact 2 family, and PantoneLive digital standards to create a connected colour workflow,” said Ming-Pong Liu, software solutions product manager, X-Rite. “By unifying formulation and quality control in a single platform, customers can fast track ink development, minimize press downtime, and reduce press returns.”
