This inspection machine by BST is called TubeScan Digital Strobe Twinhead. This inspection system from BST is designed specifically for the double-sided inspection of printed webs, making it a comprehensive quality control tool for various industries like packaging, printing, and pharmaceuticals.

The TubeScan Twinhead operates by integrating two camera units into a single system, enabling it to inspect both the front and back of a web simultaneously. This real-time inspection helps detect imperfections such as printing errors or misalignments, ensuring top-quality output. The machine reduces the risk of errors, enhancing overall production quality.

One of the key applications of the TubeScan Twinhead is in the pharmaceutical sector, particularly for packaging inserts and booklets. The system inspects both sides of the printed webs simultaneously, ensuring accuracy and preventing any misprints or missing information, which is critical in pharmaceuticals.

In the label printing industry, especially for labels with registration marks or critical information printed on both sides, the TubeScan Twinhead ensures that double-sided prints are in register. This helps in maintaining quality standards, particularly in high-precision jobs.

For industries requiring clear labels applied on paper, this system can inspect the presence and alignment of the labels on one side while ensuring that registration is accurate on the other. This inspection reduces downtime and increases productivity, ensuring that labels are properly applied and aligned.

The TubeScan Twinhead’s unique selling proposition (USP) lies in its compact and cost-effective design, making double-sided inspection accessible to more businesses, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Unlike traditional systems that may be large and expensive, the TubeScan Twinhead integrates two camera units into a single system, simplifying the double-sided inspection process. 

This approach reduces complexity, saves space, and cuts down on costs, making it a viable option for companies that need efficient quality control without a large investment. It can also be customised to meet specific production needs, offering a tailored solution for various industries.

BST is a leader in quality assurance systems, with compliance with standards across various industries, including printing, packaging, paper, film, rubber, and electronics. The company has over 15,000 customers worldwide, and its products are designed to meet stringent international quality norms.
