Kothari Info-tech
limited or KITL was incorporated
as a limited liability company
in March 2001 at Surat, India.
KITL is a Board managed organization. The
company board comprises of capable people with background in
technology, business, finance and academia.
On day to day basis, company is led and managed by a group of
professionals having expertise in Computer Graphics, Digital
Imaging, Color science and ink chemistry relevant to printing.
Software...
Since the Inception, We have been committed to develop world-class software tools for
printing and color control. At our R&D center in Surat,
a team of engineers drawn from premier institutions in India is
working hard to bring this commitment to reality. We are doing extensive research in the field of color reproduction from the
perspective of fulfilling our vision.
Towards the above goals, KITL has executed large R&D efforts and
has started amassing intellectual property during the process.
We have filed few world-wide patents based on our work. One
interesting patent application relates to the technology created
by KITL that automates the process of producing white ink layer
when printing on the colored backgrounds using the white ink.
Further more with the help of this invention it is possible to
convert the colored background into a printing ink!
We have developed innovative methods for color separation,
color correction, device calibration,
digitally printed textiles, textile coloration and highly robust system level resource handling libraries.
All these tools and technologies are integrated in the form of
well engineered user-friendly software applications ready for
industrial use. These applications are targeted towards
Wide/Large format digital printing for Graphic-Arts,
photography, textiles and textile dyeing/printing segment.
Currently we have two major lines of products targeted for graphic arts and textiles.
-
RIPS.
We have two versions of RIP available. One targeted towards
screen making process and other version is targeted towards
large/grand format digital color printing over a range of
popular large/grand format devices using custom developed
printer drivers for various different end applications like
digital textile printing, Outdoor printing etc.
-
Print Management software. This is a windows based
software targeted towards environments involving printing of a
lot of large CAD drawings. The software acts as a nesting and
queuing server and interfaces with any plotter of any make, past
or present using its windows driver. The software also keeps
track of jobs printed for billing purposes.
Inks/Chemistry...
Although KITL began its journey primarily as a
software company, but in pursuit of finding right and cost
effective solutions for the customers, KITL started investing
into research related to ink chemistry. KITL has developed water
based reactive inks and pre-treatment solutions that will work on
variety of textile substrates targeted towards roll-to-roll
digital textile printing.
We are proud to be associated
with few of the world leading companies that have brought
disruptive technologies to the world market and our software
solutions are part of such efforts.
