Abstract

AbstractThe human visual system has an exceptional ability to detect systematic print mottle. One type of systematic print mottle is banding on printed corrugated board, resulting in a disturbing print defect. A new method that quantifies banding on printed corrugated board is proposed. The method is based on spatial frequency analysis, and the degree of banding is determined using a band‐pass filter range adapted to fit the flute wavelength and orientation of the acquired image of the printed board. The results for B‐flute corrugated board gave a correlation coefficient of 0.98 between the technical measurements and the subjective ratings. Methods of quantifying the banding on the different types of corrugated board available on the market are discussed. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
