Reliably flawless print sheets with Prinect Inspection Control.
In the print media industry, high print quality with ever shorter throughput times, complex products, or just-in-time production is now standard. If you want to be successful here, you need a digitized and automated inspection system that goes far beyond manual quality assurance methods. Even the smallest printing errors can cause considerable costs and damage the print shop's image.
Better quality and cost savings through quality monitoring on the press
The Aachen site, which is part of Graphic Packaging International, specializes in the production of packaging solutions for successful brands in the beauty and confectionery sectors and works with the Prinect Inspection Control System on a Speedmaster XL including several varnish units. Group Technical Account Manager Beauty & Confectionery, Daniel Blatt, praises the additional security offered by the Prinect Inspection Control System, particularly in the production of high-quality packaging.
"Thanks to the permanent monitoring of the printed sheets, even the smallest errors that normally go undetected are detected immediately and the operator can react directly. This significantly reduces the risk of waste and complaints. In addition, the seamless quality documentation in Analyze Point enables complete transparency over the entire run," says Blatt with satisfaction.
Prinect Inspection Control delivers top performance when it comes to sheet inspection.
Highest inspection quality and integration into the workflow
Sheet inspection uses two high-resolution color cameras to check the complete sheet for material defects, hickeys, splashes, scumming, etc. at maximum speed and without any loss of quality. As it is fully integrated into the coating unit, the inspection system is perfectly protected against dust and splash water. When the good sheet production starts, a digital reference sheet is automatically created and permanently compared with the subsequent print sheets. The integrated tape inserter InsertStar automatically marks faulty sheets, and the automated loading of job data significantly reduces makeready times. This allows the operator to concentrate fully on the press.
