Surface
Detect scratches, pits, holes, bubbles, inclusions, grooves and other visible surface deviations.
Optical inline quality inspection
Inspect surface, print and colour with confidence.
DVS develops inspection systems for industrial production lines – from 360° surface inspection and print verification to color inspection in extrusion.

DVS inspection systems
Three inspection tasks.
One clear quality goal.
Whether surface defects, missing print characters or colour deviations: the systems inspect directly in the line, deliver traceable image data and support stable quality decisions in the running process.
VS-580
Surface inspection
360° surface control for cables, pipes, round stock, flat cable, profiles and extrusion products.

Print inspection
Inline verification of print image, legibility, missing or smudged markings – even at very high line speeds.
Learn moreSK-410-C
Color inspection & color control
Control of base colour, stripe colour, stripe width and foreign colour tones for cables and other colour-critical products.
Learn moreQuality in the running process
See what is really happening in your process.
DVS systems make quality deviations visible before they become a complaint issue: surface defects, print errors and colour deviations are detected, visualised and documented in real time.
Control text, markings, legibility, position, completeness and smudged print images inline.
Colour
Objectively monitor base colour, stripe colour, stripe width, colour changes and foreign colour tones.
Inline in real time
Inspection directly in the running process – without manual sampling as a bottleneck.
React immediately
Fault signals and status information to your line via digital interfaces.
Image-based evidence
Defect images, timestamps and process data create traceable quality documentation.
Surface inspection example
VS-580: precision that integrates.
The VS-580 illustrates the DVS approach clearly: hardware and software are tailored to your application so the product is captured reliably and deviations are documented traceably.

Defects that do not
go unnoticed.
Real examples from inspection: surface defects, print image deviations and colour issues become visible, documentable and usable for process improvement.
View defect images
From the line to quality evidence
Every defect becomes actionable information.
Capture product
The product passes the sensor head and is recorded optically – matched to the respective inspection task.
Detect deviation
Configurable algorithms evaluate surface, print or colour in the running process.
Locate defect
Image, position and assessment appear immediately in visualisation and documentation.
Improve process
Logs and defect images provide the basis for targeted optimisation.

Documents sorted by inspection task.
Flyers, technical backgrounds and dimension drawings are available directly with the matching system – compact for initial alignment and available in English.
Surface inspection
360° surface control for cables, pipes, round stock and profiles.
Print inspection
Inline verification of print, legibility, completeness and print quality.
Color inspection
Control of base colour, stripe colour, stripe width and foreign colour tones.
Another DVS solution
Verify print with equal confidence.
The Print Inspection SK-2.1 detects smudged, incomplete or missing markings inline – at speeds up to 1,600 m/min.
Discover print inspectionAnother DVS solution
Keep colour stable all around.
The SK-410-C checks base colour, stripe colour and stripe width at up to 2,000 m/min – including colour trend and foreign colour tone detection.

Frequently searched
Inline quality inspection for extrusion, cables and pipes.
DVS offers three specialised inspection systems instead of one compromise all-rounder: surface inspection and surface control with the VS-580, print inspection and print verification with the Print Inspection SK-2.1, and color inspection and color control with the SK-410-C – each inline, documented and designed for industrial lines.
What is surface inspection?
Surface inspection is the automatic optical inspection of product surfaces for defects such as scratches, pits, cracks, bubbles or discolouration – directly in the production line.
What does print inspection check?
It detects missing, smudged or illegible prints and markings. In practice, the same task is also referred to as print verification or print image inspection.
What is color control for cables?
Color control or color inspection objectively checks base colour, stripe colour, stripe width and colour deviations during extrusion.
Which products are inspected?
Typical applications include cables, wires, plastic pipes, hoses, metal tubes, profiles, round bar and other continuous products.
