Label inspection at 300metres/min
aco Solutions has recently purchased a Drello 3125 'Labelscope' from UK agents Advanced Supplies for an SI Label Inspection machine destined for the US market
The SI Inspection machine slits and rewinds reels of printed labels at widths up to 508mm and at speeds of up to 300 metres per minute At such speeds, labels are simply a blur and are impossible to inspect leading to the possibility of defective labels being supplied to the customer

In-line pH sensor design protects probe
Advanced Supplies introduces a new, in-line sensor for monitoring the pH of water based inks, adhesives and coatings that features a patented chamber design to prolong probe life and efficiency
The Drello model 3125 'Labelscope' provides the perfect solution by freezing the printed image irrespective of machine speed, enabling defective labels to be spotted in real-time.
When detected, the defective label or labels are simply removed from the final reel ensuring only 'good' product is shipped to the customer.
At Daco Solutions, Mark Laurence commented: "The Drello 'Labelscope' is an excellent means of providing affordable inspection of printed labels.
Without it, the alternative is to run the machine at speeds low enough for the operator to see defects with the naked eye, which doesn't help productivity!".
Advanced Supplies provide a range of hand-held and machine mountable stroboscopes for web widths up to1500mm.
aco Solutions is a Beverley (East Yorkshire) based manufacturer of specialist inspection and rewinding machinery.
