PERET GmbH has successfully launched a Braille Dot Checker at IPEX 2010 which is an affordable, pocket sized and easy to use high quality device.This handheld USB powered reader captures a 3D image of the Braille dot and sends the image to the Windows™ PC.
The BREYE³ software then analyzes characteristics of the Braille dot, the image providing a visual interpretation whilst the software measures height, base diameter and distances between dots, at the same time collecting data and calculating statistics, which you can then save and print quality reports on the Braille.

The BRAI³ Braille Dot Checker can be used to control the Braille in three areas: (1) On the press, (2) after gluing, (3) in the QA department.

The BRAI³ device is very stable and mobile, providing the user with the option to also take it to meetings with their clients, to maybe discuss for instance the type of card to be used and or the Braille height, all of course making costing and therefore your profit margin correct. Clients can then see the effect of each type of card on the monitor as reference images can be stored, and later reloaded in case of complains or adjustments.

FLEX³PRO is an affordable, easy to use Flexo Plate reader that can help you to immediately see, manage and interpret any changes to the parameters and thus achieve a superior quality output.

The state of the art illumination, pickup optics and camera technology of the FLEX³PRO flexo plate reader delivers extremely sharp images. The shoulder portion of the dot is clearly separated from the surface of the dot. Dot printing surfaces with sharp corners that are not artificially rounded due to overexposing can be measured accurately.

The FLEX³PRO software FLEYE³ offers a function to directly compare images, enabling you to see directly the impact of any changes of process parameters. Images captured with any FLEX³PRO device can be loaded and then resized with a resolution of 12700DPI, rotated, corrected in brightness and finally overlaid.

The minimum dot of the flexo plate making process defines the range of values and the perceived resolution of the printed product. But what is the minimum dot? What should the minimum dot look like? How can it be defined and how can it be consistently maintained from one plate to the next, from one day to the next? Looking at the dot shape lets us understand immediately that the dots are not the same, even though the view from top would lead us to think that was the case. The dots differ in shape whilst having an almost identical printing surface. The FLEX³PRO is used to capture the top view and the 3D image by a simple click of the mouse, without the need to re-position the plate.

The mechanical dot size, the contour (shape of the flexo dot) and the ink coverage across the dot itself will often lead to changes in the printed colour.
The FLEX³PRO is a precision device designed to measure and monitor the changes in colour due to mechanical problems of plate, press or ink.

POCKETDENSone , the new Densitometer developed by PERET introduces a totally new positioning concept: it's not just easy to use, you will love to use it.

POCKETDENSone , the proper densitometer for every single pressman measures solid density, dot gain, dot area, balance, and density differences in a fast and easy manner. Automatic zero and automatic color recognition is implemented as well. The simple and robust mechanics, the power saving electronics, and the LED technology assures a long life time of the device. With only 2 AA batteries you can take measurements over a long period of time without the need to connect the device to power for recharging.
