Print inspection solutions from
Erhardt+Leimer are the standard across the world. With the NYSCAN® 100% print
inspection system and the ELSCAN web viewing system, Erhard+Leimer was already
well positioned in the market. E+L has now crowned their portfolio with ELSCAN
dualView; an unrivaled print image monitoring system.
Top image quality
With web speeds of up to 1300 m/min,
the image representation of the two 5 megapixel cameras integrated into the
system is unsurpassed in both color reproduction and contrast. The images taken
by the wide angle lens have virtually no distortion, and any “fall-off” of
light towards the image edge is compensated for perfectly. ELSCAN dualView also
has a comparatively wide field of view with two versions; “Standard” (140 mm x
117 mm) and "Large" (230 mm x 192 mm). To fulfil the special
requirements in packaging printing, E+L is also planning a system with two 12
megapixel cameras and a 460 x 345 mm field of view. As with the other versions,
the mounting dimensions are very compact.
Superior LED flash plus specialty flashes for a variety of
applications
ELSCAN dualView uses an LED flash which
has several significant benefits compared to conventional lighting methods. The
LEDs last for the entire camera lifetime, while conventional flashes may need
replacement. Also, the LED flash is operated with a non-hazardous low voltage
of under 48V compared to the higher voltage requirements of conventional
flashes.
Additionally, Elscan dualView provides
highly specialized solutions for the packaging and security printing segments
via the integration specialty flashes. A UV flash facilitates the viewing of
otherwise invisible security elements. The systems can be equipped with a
varnish flash for inspecting coatings, varnishes, and embossing, as well as a
back flash for observing front to back register and watermarks.
Simultaneous presentation of overview and detail
As standard equipment, ELSCAN dualView
utilizes two adjacent 24” monitors. This allows the operator to observe an
overview of the repeat as well as a highly magnified selection simultaneously.
The inspection specialists at Erhardt+Leimer remain true to their principles -
just as in prior versions of ELSCAN, the dualView housing integrates both wide
angle and zoom lens cameras. The ELSCAN dualView camera unit is also
maintenance-free as the fixed focus lens contains no movable parts. Just like
its "little brother" ELSCAN OMS4, ELSCAN dualView provides an
overview of the entire repeat for quick navigation via mouse. Touch screen
operation is also available as an option.
Spectral inline color measurement, inline register control
With the addition of Theta Print,
Erhardt+Leimer has not only acquired a technically outstanding web video
system, but has also positioned itself in the market of inline spectral color
measurement as well as inline register control. E+L continues to develop its
already outstanding position in the print inspection segment. With 15
subsidiaries on four continents and over 1,500 highly skilled professionals,
the family-run company is optimally equipped to meet the requirements of the
global market. For more information go to http://www.erhardt-leimer.com.
