PI1600 and PI2000 - Printed Graphics Inspection

In today's Optical Disc manufacturing industry, virtually every disc that is sold to the consumer requires a label that is printed using a screen, offset or pad printing process. Your customers and the consumer demand picture perfect print quality on every disc

Xiris offers two different Printed Graphics Inspection systems to meet your requirements and budget: the PI-1600 for basic inspection and the PI-2000 for the highest level of inspection. Both systems will make sure that each of your products is perfect when shipped to your customer by determining if any labels printed during run time contain defects such as pinholes, insufficient ink or color drifts. Both systems include a camera module with integrated lighting, and a processing unit. The camera module is designed to allow for easy integration into most major screen, offset and pad printing machines.

The PI-2000 has more advanced features than the PI-1600, enabling it to detect even the slightest print or surface quality imperfections.
