AVT unveils print control solutions at LabelExpo Europe

AVT (Advanced Vision Technology) will participate in LabelExpo Europe 2015, its first major trade show since its alliance with systems solutions provider Erhardt + Leimer (E+L).

The company will unveil the cutting-edge Helios S Turbo inspection system and several new inspection products from the joint E+L and AVT portfolio.  The new quality control engine for inkjet digital presses, as well as extended automation solutions such as its groundbreaking Offline Setup tool and SolidProof offline proofing solution will also be showcased.

Helios S Turbo

The Helios S Turbo inspection system helps production lines meet their maximum potential through, among other enhancements, increased printing and rewinding speeds.  With the most modern machine vision technology, the Helios helps printers get even more from their inspection systems and no print problem will be overlooked, regardless of inspection and production speeds.

Offline Setup

Customers can use the Offline Setup, an automation tool that assists in creating quality standardization across production operations, or to maintain quality standards between different jobs and runs.  By standardizing quality thresholds and addressing the needs for production processes automation, the system helps raise the bar of overall print quality.  This tool enables enhanced setup consistency and suitability between operators, where all settings are made by the same operator for all AVT inspection systems.

SolidProof

SolidProof is an offline proofing system that provides 100% assurance for wide web, narrow web and sheet-fed applications, ensuring that no critical errors have been overlooked in the print production process. The solution automatically eliminates conversion errors and undetected defects during the pre-press stage; in doing so, it drastically reduces the need for manual inspection and can bring waste levels to near-zero. This solution is part of the new AVT Offline proofing line that also includes SoftProof and CloudProof.

Digital inspection and inkjet quality control engines

AVT will also showcase its new print quality control engine for inkjet digital presses, one which provides digital printers with a closed loop solution for inkjet printing quality by analyzing its actual performance through the run, and engaging in ongoing communication with the press.

Trade visitors will be able to view a full automated inspection and verification throughout the entire digital printing process will be demo.  This combination-product solution includes the ZeroSet Automated Inspection Workflow, which addresses market needs for inspection on shorter runs and better support for digital printing presses.  ZeroSet makes possible universal inspection – meaning even very short runs can be automatically inspected – leading to a direct improvement in overall quality control for jobs that, previously, may have been left uninspected. 

AVT has sales, marketing, and support offices in the United States, Europe and China.

LabelExpo Europe takes place from September 29 to October 2 in Brussels Expo.
