INSPECTION SYSTEM, INSPECTION APPARATUS AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18467003 titled 'INSPECTION SYSTEM, INSPECTION APPARATUS AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME
Simplified Explanation
The present invention provides an inspection system comprising a printing apparatus and an inspection apparatus that inspects a printed matter printed by the printing apparatus. The inspection apparatus obtains a scanned image by reading an image formed on the printed matter, diagnose the printing apparatus based on the scanned image, and in a case in which the printing apparatus is diagnosed as having a defect by the diagnosis, the inspection apparatus presents a countermeasure to be executed in the printing apparatus to resolve the defect. Then, in response to the execution of the countermeasure in the printing apparatus, the inspection apparatus allows an instruction to re-diagnose the printing apparatus to be accepted.
- Printing inspection system with printing apparatus and inspection apparatus
- Inspection apparatus reads scanned image of printed matter to diagnose printing apparatus
- Presents countermeasure to resolve defects in printing apparatus
- Allows re-diagnosis of printing apparatus after countermeasure execution
Potential Applications
The technology could be applied in industries where high-quality printing is essential, such as packaging, labeling, and publishing.
Problems Solved
1. Ensures printing apparatus is functioning properly to maintain print quality. 2. Provides immediate solutions to defects in the printing process.
Benefits
1. Improves overall print quality and consistency. 2. Reduces downtime by quickly identifying and resolving printing issues.
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimizing Print Quality Inspection System for Enhanced Printing Efficiency
Possible Prior Art
Similar systems exist in the printing industry, but the integration of automatic diagnosis and countermeasure presentation is a unique feature of this invention.
Unanswered Questions
