Web Monitoring System

A Print web monitoring system is a quality control tool for narrow web printers. It is a great starting point for printers to automate their quality control, as it requires a low initial investment and can be fully operational within a matter of hours.

The system uses a high speed camera for imaging the web and provides a clear, high resolution images of the repeat on the monitor. An operator can easily inspect the image to identify defects and make any required changes to the printing process.

Unilux offers a diverse range of Web Monitoring Systems, each designed to cater to specific printing requirements and environments. One of the main difference between these models is the field of view they provide.

Recognizing the varying needs of the customers, Unilux offers a range of models tailored to accommodate printers of all sizes, from wide web to narrow web, This versatility allows printers to select the model that best aligns with their unique production setups and objectives, empowering them to achieve optimal performance, precision, and efficiency throughout their printing processes.

Here’s an overview of the various models of Web Monitoring System.

Multiple Dynamic Scan Mode

Horizontal or vertical scanning, continuous mode or with pauses at each scan location. Dynamic Scan controls allow complete adjustment of camera speed, step size and dwell time at each scan position. All settings can be changed while the camera is scanning. This ensures that all of the web is scanned optimally.

Auto Scan

Any or all of the stored scan positions can be selected for inclusion in a playback sequence. Simply pressing program playback sets the camera into an automated positioning mode where it will rapidly move to each of the programmed positions and zoom magnifications. This is an extremely useful feature when inspection of multiple critical print features are required.

Multiview

The Multiview feature creates an innovative image buffer allowing the operator to not only see the current camera image, but also to see a series of images that were recorded over the previous captures. When used in conjunction with one of the automatic scanning programs this feature allows the operator to view the print quality of a very large area of the web at once.

Rapid Positioning

The webmap feature makes a full scan of the entire print repeat at the touch of a button and creates a composite image of the whole web. Once the webmap has been created simply touching any point on the webmap causes the camera to move rapidly to that exact position.
