Meeting ongoing customer demand, Baldwin has launched the Guardian PQV 100 percent print inspection version 4.0, designed and manufactured to help printers achieve print quality and reduce material waste.
These state-of-the-art camera systems can provide single or dual sided 100 percent print quality inspection for any application, ranging from high-volume label production with variable data to inspecting the challenging security print applications with features such as UV fluorescent, fiber inspection, IR covert, optically variable devices and inks, and magnetic inks.
The Guardian PQV is designed for ease of use, reducing the need for operator training and minimizing the problem of press staff turnover.
‘Baldwin has helped secure our future by helping us achieve the optimum balance between internal business efficiency and meeting brand owner expectations,’ said Ted Biggs, vice president of manufacturing at AWT Labels and Packaging in Minneapolis, MN.
Visitors to Baldwin’s booth can also find products from its Vision Systems segment, comprising the advanced color management and inspection technology. Baldwin Vision Systems print inspection and defect tracking workflows help to eliminate defects from outgoing products, providing quality to brand owners.
‘We understand that while it’s certainly a strong market out there, our customers are still facing challenges like supply chain uncertainty, inflation and labor constraints, to name a few,’ said Craig Black, Baldwin’s vice president of sales. ‘Our goal is to help attendees learn how we can help to alleviate some of these stressors while ultimately increasing their bottom-line profitability through higher productivity, improved quality, and reduced downtime.’
Baldwin supplies new equipment to consumers, maintains and services existing equipment with replacement parts and provides engineered consumables and engineering services, including upgrades and retrofits in addition to regular maintenance.
‘Our goal at Labelexpo is to connect with attendees and demonstrate how our broad product offerings can support their current and future needs. We invite all visitors to stop by, whether to learn about our products or to simply recharge and meet our team,’ concluded Black.
