ELSCAN Web Monitoring

ELSCAN shows the moving print on a screen, standing still, in full detail and true colour. Its patented dualView design uses two cameras – wide-angle and telephoto – and switches between them unnoticed as you zoom.

How it works

How DualView Works

Two Fixed-Focus Cameras

A wide-angle camera sees 120 × 90 mm; a central telephoto camera sees 32 × 24 mm. As the operator zooms, the system switches cameras without a pause, down to a 4 × 3 mm field with digital zoom.

A diffuse area flash lights even metallic and reflective print evenly, and the image is synchronised to the repeat by print mark, gear sensor or encoder.

Why ELSCAN

See the Print, Fix It Sooner

Modular

Start with a manual OMS 4112 and add motorisation, image memory and colour comparison later.

Master Comparison

Compare the running print with a stored master image.

Colour Check

OMS 4115–4117 compare colour (Delta E, Lab) and can raise an alarm.

Front and Back

OMS 421_ double-camera systems check both sides and register.
