Rotocontrol, a manufacturer of
leading-edge slitter/rewinder inspection machines, today announced their
participation in the AVT stand at the recently held Labelexpo Americas.
Showcased at the show with live printed label material demonstrations was the Rotocontrol
RSP-V series pharmaceutical finishing machine equipped with the AVT Helios II
automatic inspection station.
The Rotocontrol RSP-V (vertical)
series machine is designed for compliance with the most demanding security
label inspection and finishing applications. It incorporates a fully integrated
100% vision inspection system, such as the AVT Helios II, which stops the
machine when a fault is detected prior to slitting or other post-inspection
operations. Once the fault is corrected, the web is rewound back to where the
fault was detected onto a high capacity rewind for re-inspection prior to
slitting for 100% compliance requirements.
AVT's Helios is a superior line
of automatic 100% print inspection solutions designed exclusively for labels
and narrow web printing. Helios II can be seamlessly integrated into
rewinder/finishing equipment to create a designated automatic inspection
station for post print processes. A highly-reliable, market-proven solution,
Helios II has been successfully installed worldwide on hundreds of presses and
rewinders. Quickly and easily integrating on any press or rewinder for online
quality assurance and process control, Helios II supports AVT's large and
far-reaching global install base.
Marco Aengenvoort, Managing
Director of Rotocontrol comments: "It was an honour to participate at
Labelexpo Americas once again in the AVT stand, and to demonstrate our RSP-V
pharmaceutical finishing technology with the AVT Helios II automatic 100% print
inspection solution. Our long-standing partnership with AVT, which dates back
to the inception of Rotocontrol, has been instrumental in providing finishing
equipment with complementary and innovative technologies that benefit narrow
web printers and converters."
