CAMBRIDGE, UK — November 5, 2024 — Meteor Inkjet Ltd, supplier of industrial inkjet printhead driving solutions, further expands its software offering with the launch of MetVision, software for machine-vision-aided nozzle status detection and correction; and streamlined printer configuration and calibration.
The ability to accurately detect misfiring nozzles in inkjet systems is of crucial importance to OEM print system builders. Poorly-performing nozzles can result in print quality issues, printer downtime and product waste. These difficulties can be especially problematic and costly in industrial environments. Meteor’s MetVision software not only paves the way for machine-vision solutions to these problems, it offers streamlined system configuration and calibration capabilities, significantly reducing printer setup time and effort.
MetVision software facilitates the creation, detection and analysis of test patterns. It works with mobile phone cameras (wirelessly sending images to a PC) and with printer-mounted line-scan or area-scan cameras. It can be used for intermittent or for continuous defect detection and correction on-the-fly. Designed for production environments, MetVision works seamlessly with Meteor’s complete software suite including MetPrint, MetScan and MetIndustrial.
Jonathan Wilson, Meteor’s Vice President of Business Development comments, “Meteor software innovations extend beyond core print system operation to include solutions designed to enhance print quality including swath management, print calibration, nozzle-out compensation and now even real-time nozzle status detection and correction. To discuss Meteor’s complete line of scalable, production-ready electronics, software, tools and services, I welcome you to arrange a meeting with us at FuturePrint TECH in Cambridge, UK, 6 – 7 November, where Meteor will deliver a talk titled, Detecting Print Defects with Computer Vision.”
