BST showcased two of its newest products—Power- Scope 5000, which was introduced at K, and TubeScan—at this year’s Labelexpo India. The PowerScope 5000, an entry-level web video system for label converters, is a new digital video inspection system that offers improved image quality compared to the previous solutions. As a result, machine operators can detect irregularities on the press far better and faster. As a low-cost, entry-level model, the PowerScope 5000 features a uniquely easy-to-operate user interface with gesture control multi-touch monitor. TubeScan is a cost-efficient 100% print inspection system that offers detail viewing of critical areas down to dot level.

While the Indian label industry is not used to the flattening of its growth curve which it is currently experiencing, there are several discernible trends. The first trend is the increased sophistication of both the presses and the finishing equipment being installed. For instance, just as Barcom’s third Mark Andy Performance Series P5 label press is being installed, it has also ordered a bi-directional Rotoflex for slitting rewinding and improved inspection for pharmaceutical labels.
