Barbieri Spectro Swing qb

The Barbieri Spectro Swing qb is a compact automatic spectrophotometer for production environments with aqueous, solvent and UV roll-to-roll printers. It measures reflective and transparent media, so one instrument covers paper, banner, canvas, backlit film and similar flexible substrates.

Key features

• Reflection and transmission: 45°/0° reflection and d/0° transmission geometry.
• ISO 13655 conditions: M0, M1 and M2 (UV cut), in reflection and transmission.
• 2 mm aperture: suited to small patches and compact chart layouts.
• Large targets: automated measurement of charts with up to 3000 patches, with minimal operator interaction.
• Flexible media up to 1.2 mm thick: paper, photo paper, self-adhesive vinyl, labels and films, banners, canvas and cardboard.

Software and options

The free Barbieri Gateway software for Windows and macOS is included. It drives the instrument, manages chart layouts and measurement conditions, and exports data to most RIP and color management software. Two options are available on this page: DOC Software Activation, which adds automated control-strip measurement, tolerance evaluation and PDF reports for ISO, Fogra and G7 verification, and a 2-year Extended Warranty.
