Many decors are based on natural materials. The design process for a new surface therefore often begins with a surface scan. It is important that not only the color, but also the texture and gloss can be recorded. The surface scanners from Metis meet all these requirements and are not only used in decor development, but also to visualize the finished product in virtual rooms. CGS ORIS is the exclusive sales partner of METIS in Germany and, with its expertise in color management, helps to ensure that the color impression of the scan is always as similar as possible to the original.

Software: Light Inspector
Metis Scanner: DRS 2020 DCS Plus, DRS 1622 DCS Plus, DRS 1220 DCS Plus, Surf 3D, DRS 2500 DCS Plus und PM3d Hawk

The appearance of a decor is determined by the color, texture and gloss of the surface. With SURFACE PROOF, we offer a further development of our proofing software in conjunction with UV flatbed printers from Roland DG that takes all three dimensions into account. SURFACE PROOF plays an important role in the development of new decors, as it makes it possible to physically reproduce new designs directly, combine them with existing textures or print them with color variations, saving time and resources.

We are also continuing to develop the digital production of laboratory press plates in order to shorten the sampling process by weeks and thus save costs.

Proof Equipment: Roland CO-Series, Roland LEF-Series  

A special feature of decor printing is that the print results are often side by side and even the smallest differences can be perceived. This applies to wallpaper as well as tiles or flooring. Whether digital or analog printing, the demands on color accuracy in decor printing are higher than in any other printing segment. With X GAMUT, we offer color management software that meets the highest demands for color consistency over time, production location and printing process.
