At the recent one-day print optimization and color management conference at PackPlus in Delhi, it became clear that it is a hot topic. Sorry to say it, but the topic is really a no-brainer. Why wouldn’t a printer adopt a method, technology or way of working that can save on substrates and inks, lead to faster make-readies and approvals from the customer and lead to better quality? Why will a brand owner continue to prefer Light, Standard, Dark (LSD) for quality assurance when he can specify quality in numbers or Delta E tolerances as brand owners such as Proctor & Gamble already do? Yes it will take some effort and time to upgrade the print ecosystem in the country.

At PackPlus2016, Coimbatore-based Autoprint Machinery Manufacturers showed live demos of its automatic carton print inspection machine – Checkmate 50.

We have launched coating as well as diecutting machines. And in the last two years, we have been focussing more on the automatic carton inspection machine called Checkmate 50 which runs at a speed of 250 metres a minute, with three cameras inspecting simultaneously. The machine gives tremendous confidence to end customers to deliver defect-free products to their clients. It is very critical especially in the pharmaceutical, FMCG and other industries where quality standards have become much stricter.”
