Sandler First Printer to Install Prinect Inspection Control in Austria

Prinect Inspection Control shipped with a Speedmaster XL 105.

Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG (Heidelberg) has installed the first Prinect Inspection Control in the Austrian market at the Sandler print shop in Marbach-an-der-Donau. The system was delivered in combination with a Speedmaster XL 105 with a coating unit and complete logistics system. Sandler produces high-quality commercial printwork and folding boxes and was looking for premium quality in color and print image control, as well as seamless documentation of its measurement results, with at the same time no loss in productivity. So when they decided on a new Speedmaster XL 105, Sandler added to their order the color measurement system Prinect Image Control and the inline sheet inspection system Prinect Inspection Control, launched by Heidelberg at Ipex 2006.

Prinect Inspection Control is the perfect partner with Prinect Image Control, and its two high-resolution RGB cameras enable it to easily and reliably identify the smallest of printing errors, such as hickeys, missing print, ink splashes, streaks and scratches, the moment they happen, while retaining full production speed. The system is fully integrated in the Speedmaster XL 105 coating unit and is positioned so closely to the sheet travel that high-quality inspection is possible right up to the rear edge of the sheet.

"Reliable and top print quality, keeping to deadlines and verifiable quality control are what our customers expect from us today. The Speedmaster XL 105 together with the two Heidelberg measurement systems for color control and sheet inspection help us to fully satisfy these demands," says General Manager Hannes Sandler, summing up their investment decision.
