At the heart of the Auraia screening engine are a number of screening breakthroughs.

The carefully controlled dots produce presswork equivalent to a traditional 400-500 lpi screen for commercial printers and a 200-250 lpi screen for newspaper printers. Incredible detail is maintained in images from highlight to shadow detail. Issues related to dot gain variation are eliminated, flat screen tint builds are smooth and in addition, it’s easy to plate and print.

Auraia DMS provides genuine 16 bit screening with an incredible 50,000+ gray levels per color.[/cs_text][/cs_column][cs_column fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/4″ style=”padding: 0px;”][x_feature_box title=”Plate Calibration” title_color=”hsl(0, 0%, 100%)” text_color=”” graphic=”icon” graphic_size=”150px” graphic_shape=”square” graphic_color=”#ffffff” graphic_bg_color=”hsl(198, 100%, 44%)” align_h=”center” align_v=”top” side_graphic_spacing=”20px” max_width=”none” graphic_icon=”cogs”][/x_feature_box][cs_text]Plate calibration should be performed as usual using the ‘FM’ mode on a plate reader, if available.
