Where the Science of Quality Assurance is still an Art!

 


Leading Asian Paper Coating Manufacturer invests in

Patented State-of-the-Art Web Inspection Technology


Model 3030 High Resolution Coating Streak, hole and spot web inspection technology by RKBSyracuse, NY, April 04, 2002 – R.K.B. OPTO-ELECTRONICS, INC. (R.K.B.), a leading supplier of specialty coated material web inspection technologies announced that it has successfully started up another high resolution material defect web inspection system in Asia.  Referred as our Model 3030, the web inspection system is designed to inspect for holes, dirt, oil, coating voids and subtle scratches and streaks commonly found in the production of quality coated materials.  Installed on an off machine coater, this technology has been designed to detect coating scratches and voids as small as 0.5mm wide.

 

The R.K.B Model 3030 OPTOMIZER is designed to be utilized on any type of coated material to inspect for quality concerns and is intended for manufacturers who are serious about quality assurance and control.  This technology that is specialized for coated material does not come cheaply, but does outperform any other known solution currently available today.  Verified by the American Forest Products Association in cooperation with the Institute of Paper Science and Technology, the Model 3030 has proven effective on all types of web based material manufacturing.  The 3030 is a state-of-the-art, patented machine vision inspection solution that automatically identifies, detects, classifies and displays holes, dirt, oil, coating voids, streaks and scratches, to name a few defects, that are common occurrences in coating processes from paper to steel. Unlike line-scan camera, laser or phototransistor based solutions that do ‘not work’ well, R.K.B. Model 3030 does improve real-time processes and significantly reduces losses due to customer returns, quality concerns; mechanically or aesthetically, unnecessary machine down time, or damaged sensitive process equipment like supercalendars, printing blankets, treaters, etc.  Coating Streak and Scratch Web Inspection Technology by RKB
