Description of Techkon Dens

• Techkon Dens brings together 3 instruments in one.
  You get a reflection densitometer for CMYK printing, a film transmission densitometer and a magnification instrument for visual inspection of your print.
  
  This cost effective entry-level instrument allows everyone to perform a fundamental densitometric quality control on the basis of the reliable high accuracy well-known from all TECHKON instruments.
  
  The DENS indicates densities, dot area and gray balance clearly legible on a large color display. Automatic color and gray balance detection speeds up the measuring. In addition the device is easily operated by only three buttons. The whole measurement is provided in a split of a second.
  
  LED technology, durable and energy-saving, is used as light source. A multi-channel color sensor evaluates the measuring signal guaranteeing inter-instrument agreement with high-class spectrophotometers.
  
  The integrated Li-Ion battery can be recharged very fast via the USB cable on any USB port and delivers energy for a few thousand measurements.
  To meet the demands of a printing rooms harsh environment, the compact casing of the DENS is made of solid aluminum and is therefore very robust. Despite its solidity, the DENS nevertheless weights only 330 g and thanks to its ergonomic and elegant design it is more than a user-friendly and precise measurement tool - it is an eye-catcher.
