Colognia Press improves barcode inspection with Axicon verifiers
Colognia Press, a leading manufacturer of labels and packaging, was faced with a requirement from a key customer to ensure that all barcodes on products were error-free, meet stringent quality standards and that it would be possible to produce a comprehensive certificate incorporating results from multiple print runs in one day.
Why switch to Axicon?
The company's existing equipment was unable to fully meet this requirement, which led to the decision to implement Axicon verifiers. These devices brought several key improvements to the verification process:
- A larger field of focus: For checking large print areas with a high number of lines.A model with a larger field of view was selected. This allows for faster and more convenient verification.
- Generating a summary certificate: Axicon software offers the possibility to perform sequential measurements on multiple printouts and generate a single certificate that summarizes the results of all measurements performed during the day.
- Easy to use: the verifier is user-friendly, which allowed the Colognia Press team to quickly learn new workflows.
- Reliability.
Implementation and training
As part of the transition to the new system, employees were trained to use the software effectively and to use the equipment to its full potential. The whole process went smoothly, allowing the Colognia Press team to quickly start using the new quality control capabilities.
Summary
With the implementation of Axicon verifiers, Colognia Press has improved its quality control process and gained a tool that meets the requirements of even the most demanding customers. This change confirms that investing in modern technology pays off and opens up new possibilities to optimize production. At the same time, it gives assurance that their customers will not be fined for poor quality barcodes.
