Lake Image Systems Debuts Roll Inspector

Published: March 07, 2016

HENRIETTA, NY | Lake Image Systems, a supplier of variable data integrity and print quality inspection for the packaging, labels, and commercial print industries, announces the release of Discovery Roll Inspector, an in-line print quality inspection system for web printers that reportedly combines the best in print quality assurance, speed, and ease of implementation. 

This in-line, all-in-one print quality inspection system is said to be well suited for inspecting 100% of laser and inkjet web applications. It utilizes sophisticated software tools to analyze multiple areas of interest (AOIs) simultaneously and apply multiple quality tests per page. This enables the Roll Inspector to instantly detect print defects such as ink spots, toner streaks, voids, color variations, and image/barcode quality issues. Optionally, the Inspector checks the readability of barcodes, text, postal codes, and MICR lines as well as performing sequence checks, alignment and data verification for a variety of highly complex, data extensive, variable documents.

The Discovery Roll Inspector is available in three configurations to address all levels of inspection requirements: View, Standard, and Full. This modular design enables clients to start with the View “base system” and upgrade all the way to a “Full” system as their requirements grow.

“Following our initial field trial of the product, the overwhelming feedback from our valued customers and prospects was very positive and we strongly believe the market conditions are ready for such a product,” says Scott Stevens, president of Lake Image Systems. “The Discovery Roll Inspector has the ability to utilize sophisticated software tools to analyze multiple AOIs simultaneously and apply multiple print quality and data verification tests per pages reliably, at press speeds exceeding 1,000 fpm. Furthermore, the system is designed for minimum operator interactions and has a low degree of false stops, greatly improving operational efficiencies. This allows our clients to do 100 percent print assurance management cost effectively, while saving on expensive reruns and, more importantly, safeguarding them against potentially crippling financial risks.”
