FlexoIAS™ II is a second generation test instrument from QEA designed for process control in flexographic printing. Equipped with specialized optics, a light box, and advanced imaging software, the FlexoIAS-II enables quick, objective, and reliable analysis of the quality of flexographic photopolymer plates, films and masks. Optional optics are also available for comprehensive print quality analysis.

Plate Production Process Control The FlexoIAS-II elevates flexoplate quality analysis to the highest level. It brings a sophisticated tool to the shop floor and empowers plate room operators to make critical quality measurements during plate production. With the easy-to-use measurement unit and the automated data logging capability, the FlexoIAS-II provides systematic plate quality monitoring and control to catch errors as early as possible in the production process, reducing costs and eliminating down time and waste.

Best Tool on the Market The FlexoIAS-II is a highly refined tool based on more than10 years of experience in flexoplate measurements by numerous converters, tradeshops, and equipment and plate suppliers. Its performance leapfrogs other products on the market. The largest packaging converter in the world relies on the strength and performance of the FlexoIAS-II for plate production process control in more than 30 factories worldwide!
