Industrial packaging print runs are faster, more dynamic, and more complex than ever. With customer expectations rising and brand quality under a microscope, printers need more than traditional inspection tools — they need a smarter, sharper way to ensure quality.

That’s where AVT’s Turbo HD 100% print inspection systems come in. Representing a leap forward in speed, resolution, and precision, they’re built to handle today’s most demanding print environments — from wide web flexible packaging to high-speed labels and shrink sleeves.

Next-Gen Tech That Sees It All

AVT’s Turbo HD inspection systems use 8K-16k high-speed line scan cameras to deliver true high-resolution inspection in full color — at up to 3–4x the speed of earlier generations. That means every square millimeter of your printed web is inspected in real time, with greater clarity and accuracy than ever before.

But resolution is just one part of the story. These systems also feature:

  • LED illumination for consistent, adjustable lighting across the inspection area.
  • Smaller footprints and modular hardware for easy integration across your press fleet.
  • Enhanced computing power, allowing rapid image processing and defect classification at full production speeds.

Whether your web is 500 mm or 2.6 meters wide, AVT’s modular camera arrays can be scaled to inspect the entire width — so you never miss a defect.

Inline Verification That Prevents Errors Early

Modern print environments are high-mix and fast-paced, which makes setup accuracy critical. AVT systems include automated job verification tools to ensure the right job is running with the right plates, versions, and languages — before the first meter is printed.

  • MasterRef stores the master image of each job to verify repeat jobs visually and automatically.
  • JobRef compares the customer-approved PDF to each printed item inline — supporting even multi-design jobs.

This eliminates some of the most common — and costly — sources of rework: loading the wrong plate, running the wrong language version, or mismatched artwork versions.

Print More, Waste Less

By combining state-of-the-art optics with smart automation, AVT 100% print inspection platforms don’t just identify defects — they stop them before they cascade into full-roll waste.

Operators gain complete visibility with:

  • Real-time defect detection and classification
  • Immediate alerts on the workstation
  • Statistical monitoring and trend analysis for early intervention

With AVT’s systems in place, printers can shift from reactive troubleshooting to proactive quality assurance — minimizing downtime, maximizing throughput, and delivering brand-perfect packaging every time.
