Illinois-based manufacturer and distributor of custom labels and packaging materials, The Label Printers has installed a BST Pro Mark Shark 4000 LEX inspection system.
The Shark 100% inspection system can see mis-registers, color variations and hazing, dirty print, smudges, scratches, splashes and spots, web creases and wrinkles, hairs, die-cut variations and incorrect matrix removal, reverse type fill-in, and most streaks and debris, says labels & labeling.
The Label Printers plant manager Tom Erickson said that the Shark system will enable to run the equipment faster than the current system does and the company can offer its customers and prospective customers 100% inspection without relying on the human eye.
“In future, it could be used for authenticating serialized labels and barcode verification. It’s got great potential in variable printing – which gets bigger for us all the time,’ Erickson added.
