AVT, a leader in print inspection, print process control and quality assurance, has partnered with Quality By Vision to develop CoatScan, an inspection solution for sheet coating presses. 
CoatScan provides coating margin monitoring and sheet positioning assurance through comparison with the user’s pre-determined standards. It also offers defect detection of the overall coating area, as well as indications of coating thickness variations.

CoatScan also supplies users with comprehensive reports of all monitored items and will be provided exclusively through AVT.

“AVT’s solutions for the metal decorating sector align with the industry’s needs for increased product quality and workflow efficiency,” says Jaron Lotan, CEO of AVT. “AVT has significantly increased our installed base in this sector in less than one year’s time, and we are confident that our partnership with highly respected industry leaders, such as Quality By Vision, will allow us to continually improve customer service and further improve our overall industry influence.”

The company’s product line consists of AVT’s Titan, a comprehensive, 100% quality assurance and process control system for metal decorating applications that detects the full spectrum of typical print defects, including color variations, mis-registration (including varnish mis-registration), misprints, spots, incorrect characters, streaks, scratches, splashes, scumming, edges and bends. Another solution is AVT’s Mercury Ink Color Control System, which sets inking using a patented, digital servomotor on any new or existing litho decorating line.  

 “Quality By Vision is delighted to be partnering with AVT,” adds Benjamin LaOr, Quality By Vision’s general manager. “We believe that a relationship with such a prestigious company will benefit our customers, as well as allow us to expand into new markets. Our customers will certainly benefit from AVT’s expertise and experience in print inspection, and we are looking forward to the coming years.”
