New at Labelexpo Americas: “iPrint” Mobile Application

“iPrint” enables AVT customers to get real-time information from the production floor on their iPhone—production status, quality information, statistical data, and more are available immediately through the AVT iPrint Application.

Barcode and Variable Barcodes verification

Integrated into AVT PrintVision/Helios II – the Barcode and Variable Barcodes module inspects and verifies UPC bar codes, 2D Data Matrix bar codes, and human readable items.

The system also supports the new E-Pedigree FDA regulations to “track and trace” every step of the pharmaceutical drug until it reaches the final customer in order to protect consumers. PrintVision/Helios II can verify and validate these unique individual codes and alert and report on quality and validity, as well as duplications or missing codes.
