EASY-TRACKER

DEFECT TRACKING THROUGH VARIOUS PROCESSES, WASTE MANAGEMENT & DEFECT REMOVAL

Newest defect coding system for the traceability of the defects during the entire production process. With this system, the processing speed and the efficiency of the entire process are increased: thanks to the automatic stops in the slitter the removal of the defects is extremely easy.

• Size, shape and pattern of the sync-code are programmable
• The size of one sync-code is 2.5 mm by 35-40 mm (w x h) and contains Job name, Roll Number and Meterage
• The Ink Jet nozzle (to print the synchronization code) is installed on a motorized bar. A camera is installed on the same bar that automatically detects the web edge (for automatic alignment ensuring print repeatability) and verifies the readability of the sync-code just printed
• The sync-camera reads and transmit the sync-code information to the system in real time for an accurate pairing of the detected defects with the roll footage
• The frequency in printing the sync-code is programmable (normally is one sync-code every one or two print repeats)
• When a roll terminates the printing phase a label printer (supplied with the system) generates a label on which a univocal barcode is printed, containing all roll data
• System is supplied with an editing station to filter the undesired defects, only the selected ones will be removed by automatically stopping the slitter on the sync-code paired with the defect
