KDV Label has installed PC Industries’ Guardian OLP system, designed for pre-press, proofing and pressroom quality control, to maintain label quality on a narrow web flexo press.

KDV Label provides labelling for markets such as consumer goods, beverage, food, chemical and more.

Nick Scharber, the pre-press manager at KDV Label, said, ‘The system itself is easy to use, and gives access to the developers and support. This prompted us to partner with PC Industries. After evaluating many inspection systems for our printed label products we chose PC Industries OLP system for our needs based on the features, cost, and personnel. We have been using PC Industries’ OLP inspection system for over a year now and couldn’t be happier with our decision.’

In preparing for the press run, the Guardian OLP is used to verify register and job sign-off. By comparing press samples to the customer-approved master, the system helps guarantee plate quality and print job integrity. As for ease of use, these inspections typically only take a few seconds to perform, and can be set up with only a few clicks, to assure no interruption in the production process.
