BST Pro Mark Donates New Inspection System to Ditrolio Flexographic Institute

ELMHURST, Ill.—BST Pro Mark has donated a new Powerscope 3000 video web inspection system to the Ditrolio Flexographic Institute, which has been installed on its 13˝ six-color Profiteer press at DFI’s facility in Broadview, Ill.

The donated inspection system features a compact camera with a 4˝ x 3˝ image size and 40x magnification, which, according to Vince Ditrolio, president of DFI, “allows us to use it both as an inspection system and as a real time teaching device. We can magnify and freeze images of the actual print at any time using the Powerscope, and then spend time with the students explaining causes, effects and corrective actions. It is just as powerful a teaching tool as an inspection tool.” Vince Ditrolio uses the BST Powerscope as both a teaching device and a print and quality inspection system.
