Film thickness calibration across substratesThe Film <strong>Thickness</strong> <strong>Calibration</strong> module calculates volume requirements across differentsubstrates. The calibration set does not have to be re-measured for each substrate.Even so, we do not recommend creating recipes for various substrates based on datafrom just one.If you are using different substrates for an assortment, we recommend creatingcategories; some examples follow:• Coated• Uncoated (newsprint)• Uncoated (for different substrate textures)• Color uncoatedYou should create specific assortments for each general substrate application.<strong>InkFormulation</strong> can automatically create recipes across different substrates, but recipequality can suffer if the substrate characteristics vary widely.You have to make sure you are using the correct substrate when calibratingthicknesses. The system cannot calculate the accurate thickness characterization datawith incorrect substrate data.<strong>InkFormulation</strong> 6 - Application Notes - Film <strong>Thickness</strong> <strong>Calibration</strong>(11.2011 en) 3
