    Redundancy is the key to high uptime and zero defects in pharmaceutical-labeling system.


    SPS Phin manufactures process-line labeling equipment for clients in a variety of industries, including the pharmaceutical industry. Phin's clients prefer to purchase a complete labeling solution, including print verification and label printing, in one package from one vendor. That puts Phin in the position of needing to supply an optical-character-recognition/optical-character-verification (OCR/OCV) system integrated with its label-printing equipment. The company did not want to add specialized machine-vision technology at the level needed to design a robust OCR/OCV system to be integrated with the rest of the label-printing system. Consequently, it sought a partner to supply an OEM print-inspection system that could be offered as an option with the label-printing equipment.
