German Manufacturer of Analog and Digital Imaging Materials Upgrades R.K.B. Web Inspection Technology
Syracuse, NY, May 01, 2004 – R.K.B. OPTO-ELECTRONICS, INC. (R.K.B), a leading supplier of paper web inspection, machine vision and material vision inspection technologies announced today the it has been awarded a contract to upgrade an existing web inspection system by a leading German manufacturer of imaging materials.
The web inspection system is utilized on finishing equipment where it inspects for various coating voids in photosensitive coated printing plates. The inspection system is interfaced into reject control technology also provided by R.K.B. to ensure defect blankets, as they are called, are removed prior to shipment ensuring 100% quality of shipped products. Originally developed and patented by R.K.B. in the late 1960's, this technology has shown that even today, older and reliable technology does have a place over newer forms of inspection technology. Cost effective and stable, the Model 2060 will provide accurate detection of autonomous defects ensuring your company maintains its quality initiatives.
The web inspection system is used to automatically identify, detect, classify and
display autonomous defects like holes, dark spots, oil, scale, edge cracks, hard
wrinkles and other defect flaws in any type of non-coated or coated material
such as paper, film, foil, steel and other materials. R.K.B.
automated inspection technology allows all kinds of web-based material
manufacturers to produce a high caliber product more cost-effectively. Due to
R.K.B. specialized state-of-the-art electronic signal processing, the machine
vision inspection system, unlike other machine vision based solutions, does
improve overall efficiency, quality and output. The system can greatly help
reduce rejects and improve product throughput.
Founded to meet the needs of multinational paper, film, foil, steel,
non-wovens and other allied manufacturers for web inspection related equipment,
R.K.B. designs, develops, manufactures, and markets the
most diverse line of
machine vision web inspection solutions in the world. R.K.B was the first
commercial on-line web inspection supplier in the world. With more than fifty
years experience in web inspection development, techniques and solutions, R.K.B
has significantly extended the benefits of automatic optical web inspection.
Early R.K.B systems were based on patented
ultraviolet, photomultiplier and
infrared, phototransistor technology. In the 1970’s, R.K.B developed and
patented the first camera-based system called the Vidicon 7000. Using the most
advanced technology available, R.K.B. streak detection systems can monitor and
detect streaks and scratches down to sizes that no other company can achieve no
matter what process speed you’re manufacturing at. Our
patented streak detection
technology truly is the latest breakthrough in the art of defect fault
detection. This advanced scanner truly represents a quantum leap forward in the
technology! |
