Winpak, based in Winnipeg, Canada, with 12 manufacturing facilities in North America, has invested in Baldwin’s Guardian OLP off-line proofing and inspection system, along with its Guardian PQV 100 percent inspection system.
Guardian PQV 100 percent print inspection reportedly provides complete print quality verification, from prepress through production, reporting, and archiving. With a few clicks, PQV 4.0 can set up a repeatable process that lowers the technical barrier of entry for newer employees. The system then automates the printing job process.
Guardian OLP verifies that the files used for production – or the beginning-of-run press samples – match the customer-approved master file 100 percent. By comparing any prepress file or scanned press sample to the customer-approved original in a matter of seconds, advanced software automatically locates and highlights even the smallest of differences in print quality, according to the manufacturer.
