Prinect Inspection Control is designed to locate printing and material defects—hickeys, marking, scumming, scratching, etc.—on every printed sheet as it passes through the coating unit of the press.

Defects are captured in real time by comparing every printed sheet with a digital reference. Upon detection, the system provides audible and visual alerts and inserts a tab in the delivery pile to indicate the first occurrence of the defect. If the defect clears itself, an additional tab is inserted into the delivery pile to mark the last defective sheet and accurately define the range of defective printed materials in the delivery pile.
