Barbieri Spectro Swing RT

Complete Solution for Linearization and Profiling of Digital Output Devices

Due to the wide range of substrates available for today's printers, the Spectro Swing offers unique measurement functions - including transmissive data gathering. This is the simplest way to linearize and profile a broad range of printers and media - while achieving maximum quality. The Swing RT (Reflective/Transmissive) is your choice for fingerprinting papers, vinyls, clear, translucent and other substrates. Barbieri is know for simple, robust and reliable equipment. This premier solution offers ease-of-use, measurement accuracy, and broad media support.

Ease-of-Use

The Spectro Swing is a full solution which is known for both "Easy Operation Mode" and "No Button Operation". The device offers simplicity, convenience, and maximum color accuracy when measuring digital print output. Professionals and aspiring professionals will both appreciate the speed and ease, along with the high quality achieved in the linearization and profiling process. Even novices will achieve maximum quality results using the "Easy Operation Mode". One simply selects the predefined job from the menu, places the printed chart into the device, and waits for the fast job completion.

Responsive

Paper, mylar, backlit, banner, adhesive. . . all effortlessly managed by the Spectro Swing. Media thicknesses up to 0.7mm are supported. No other device easily and accurately measures transparent materials including backlit/translucent, clear, mylar, film or similar medias. Whereas others might possilbly read a patch or a strip, the Swing will read an entire array of patches. This makes the Barbieri Swing unique. And that is not all. The Swing offers three measurement modes: fully automatic, spot and also density options.

Minimizes Error

User error comes in various flavors - mismeasurement, software instruction failure, or other forms of operator error. The best results are achieved when the process is simplified. The multiple protections built into the BARBIERI system guarantees optimum results. Borrowing from technology developed for the Spectro LFP flatbed printer substrate measurement, BARBIERI brings their far reaching development achievements to their newest Spectro Swing series.
