Eye On Inspection

Explain the difference between inspection systems available in the package printing marketplace.

• Jim Doerr, president and CEO, TruColor Vision Systems: Currently, the market is filled with inspection options. Features, advantages, and system benefits can be as varied as the amount of capital it requires to invest in inspection technology. Choices include: human eye, rotating mirrors, high-intensity strobes and, of course, machine vision type systems. TruColor Vision Systems now offers a complete range of machine vision-based inspection systems beginning with the basic entry level models, then on to midrange automated models—automated in terms of automatically positioning and moving the inspection camera around the web.
