Quad has been using Auraia DMS for more than six years across its global heat-set printing operations, and today Auraia DMS is its screening technology of choice.


Auraia DMS (Digitally Modulated Screening) is a patented intelligent screening technology designed for the lithographic offset printing environment, that uses a unique and smart algorithm to lay down carefully controlled and robust dots on plate. The result is faster make-ready, and a more reliable production experience, so that you can print more chargeable jobs!

In addition, Auraia DMS is proven to reduce costs compared to conventional screening technologies, delivering real-world ink savings, as well as a reduction in waste, water, and energy. Crucially, there is no compromise on quality – Auraia DMS is held in high regard for its ability to produce photo-real image fidelity in stunning magazines, catalogs and books.

How can Auraia DMS help reduce costs ,optimise
your heat-set print production and win new business?


Printers love how Auraia can reduce costs and increase productivity, whilst publishers admire the photo-real image fidelity created on their magazine pages. Advertisers are equally impressed by Auraia’s consistent delivery of sharp and legible text, and appreciate how Auraia can help them achieve their sustainability goals.

Auraia’s intelligent dots.... 

Auraia’s patented screening technology precisely controls the dots in each separation while its “stochastic rosette” interleaves the screens in the separations to eliminate noise and moiré. In addition, the stochastic rosette maximises the ink-on-paper area and minimizes the amount of ink-on-ink to expand the available color gamut, while eliminating color shifts due to misregistration.

400 – 600 lpi (equivalent)

Auraia’s clever algorithm ensures that no dot is too small to plate or print yet still not large enough to be visible. The result is visually stunning ultra high-definition printed magazines and catalogues, not possible to achieve with conventional screening methods. No longer are printers restricted by problems with moiré, misregistration, rosette drift, color shifts, banding, dot gain variation, dot or shadow loss and so on, but are free to do what they do best – meet their customer expectations with ‘beautiful’ presswork.

Auraia’s intelligent dots.... 

Auraia DMS perfects halftone screening by achieving the high level of image detail associated with FM/stochastic screening as well as producing ultra-smooth flat tints as smooth as, and typically smoother than, AM/XM screening.
