• Superior Defect Management Software - Shark's unique defect management software package was designed to speed up the defect management process by making it easier to evaluate defects the system has identified and to more quickly and efficiently take appropriate action.
• A unique defect management screen contains all the information needed to access the severity of identified defects and take action fast. Having a simultaneous display of the full repeat, a close-up of the defect identified (and highlighted), and a close-up of the golden master, supplemented with a zoom function, allows faster, more precise and efficient examination of defects and decision making.

Shark 's unique defect management software results in greater
productivity and throughput.

• A Defect Review icon allows a review of the most recent defects identified, with the touch of the screen.
• Intuitive Operator Interface For Greater Ease of Use - Shark features a unique all icon driven user interface that is both intuitive - the user navigates around the repeat simply by touching the desired area – and very easy to learn.
• Unique Lighting Technology - Shark has a unique (patent pending) lighting system that guarantees consistent lighting so critical to reliable line scan defect detection.
• Greater Productivity – The system acquires golden master images 50% faster than other systems, resulting in huge time savings for every job. Inspection can be started quicker, rolls get processed faster and users benefit from higher throughput.
• Functionality – because Shark is all about productivity and results, it contains a comprehensive package of standard features:
• Real time display of total number of labels inspected, quantity of good labels and quantity of bad labels.
• Easily define different areas of a job with different defect tolerance levels.
• Automatically generate a Roll Compliance Report at the end of every roll.

An output to re-winder or a web flagging device is standard, as is remote service support via modem.

Shark will perform 100% inspection of webs up to 500mm, effectively identify missing print, reverse type fill-in, splash, spots, m is-register, hickeys, dirty print, web crease, haze, scumming, smudges, streaks, hairs, die-cut variations and incorrect matrix removal.

Shark will effectively identify random and repeating defects and is suitable for use on all kinds of substrates, including highly reflective materials.
