QUALITY CONTROL - PrintGuard
Quality control unit for digital printing lines
Overview
Quality control unit for digital printing lines
Inline Quality Control
Make quality control faster, more accurate and easier to manage
PrintGuard brings quality control directly into the digital printing line, combining automated defect detection, digital proof projection and production reporting to help operators identify problems earlier and make better-informed decisions.
Detect defects automatically
Mechanical sensors automatically identify defective material and add an extra layer of quality control.
Improve operator accuracy
Digital tools provide operators with clearer information while reducing dependence on manual checks.
Faster job set-up
Simplified quality-control workflows help reduce setup time and support more efficient production.
Digital monitoring
Reporting and monitoring capabilities provide better visibility into the quality-control process.
How it works
Quality control directly inside the production flow
PrintGuard is designed for inline single-pass digital printing, allowing inspection and production monitoring to become part of the normal workflow.
1
Board enters
Printed corrugated board enters the inline quality-control area.
2
Defect detection
Mechanical sensors identify defective material automatically.
3
Digital proof
Digital proofs can be projected directly onto the board to support visual comparison and inspection.
4
Monitor & report
Production information supports monitoring, reporting and better-informed quality decisions.
Key features
Built for consistent digital print quality
Automated defect detection
Mechanical sensors automatically detect defective material, helping identify quality problems during production.
Digital proof projection
Digital proofs are projected directly onto boards to give operators a fast and practical inspection reference.
Single-pass inline design
Developed specifically for integration into digital printing inline single-pass production lines.
Higher accuracy
Automated inspection tools reduce reliance on manual processes and help minimize the risk of human error.
Digital reporting
Monitoring and reporting provide operators with improved visibility into production quality.
Operator-friendly interface
Touchscreen controls and an intuitive workflow simplify quality-control tasks for production teams.
INLINE
Single-pass quality control
Quality control without breaking the production flow
PrintGuard integrates inspection directly into single-pass digital printing, helping operators detect problems, compare printed output and access production information without relying on a separate offline quality-control process.
Production value
Better information. Better quality decisions.
Reduce quality risks
Automatic defect detection helps identify problematic material before it progresses further through production.
Faster setup
Digital tools and simplified inspection procedures help operators prepare jobs more efficiently.
Improve ergonomics
Direct proof projection and digital information provide operators with a more practical inspection workflow.
Better traceability
Digital monitoring and reporting create greater visibility over the quality-control process.
