benefits of web and paper inspection systems

benefits

  • Comprehensive Defect Detection: Identify holes, damaged edges, misaligned webbing, perforation depth, splices, and artwork inconsistencies with precision.
  • High-Speed Accuracy: Inspect features as small as 1-2 millimeters, even on webbing moving at speeds of up to 10 meters-per-second or 2,000 feet-per-minute.
  • Increased Productivity: Streamline quality checks by combining multiple inspection points into one automated system.
  • Proprietary Technology: Reduce blur during high-speed inspections using our unique linescan technology, software, and lighting design for superior accuracy.
  • Customizable Solutions: Optional upgrades include reject tracking, stainless steel stands for food-grade environments, and integration with marking systems.
