Nikka to show inspection developments at Labelexpo

At Labelexpo Europe on stand 7M120, camera inspection specialist Nikka Research will showcase its product line for print quality control, pre-press verification, process automation, variable and security printing and data collection.

A new member of the Alis automatic label inspection family is the compact L1 model. This wedge shaped camera is designed for inspection on printing presses and rewinders. 

The established Alis L2 line of print quality inspection now covers all popular web widths: 330, 420, 520, 600 and 760 mm. Many combinations of camera resolutions, B/W or color cameras are available to match any application.

PDF-to-Print verification technology has become even more accessible and easy to use, says the company. The ODRI offline scanner inspection system adds support for A1 scanners, thin leaflet paper and reflective surfaces. Other options are ISO-conform barcode grading, color measurement as well as multiple artwork inspection.

For all products, Nikka Research will introduce its new ‘applet’ concept. Applets are modular functions, which can be easily added to existing systems in order to extend their functionality. Applets for barcodes, Datamatrix, Delta E color monitoring, in-image measurement, OCR and variable data are ready to mix into a system exactly matching customer requirements.

In addition to inspection products for pre-press, press and finishing, Nikka Research will present its integrated solutions for inter-process optimization. Presented will be electronic job tickets, ‘inspect on press then repair on rewinder’ workflow, offline review and edit capability for roll maps and a job tracking and analysis reporting system.
