Scratch Finder (Stand alone Cat. PH116-A)

Cine-Film Processing requires a fine anti-scratch supervision!

  • The SF Optical Unit (Cat. PH116-C) enhances with infrared vision onto the monitor screen any surface fault like scratches, dust, etc...

  • The SF SOS Automatic Scratch Detector (Cat. PH116-B) identifies the scratch and shows it clear and enlarged onto the monitor screen emitting an acoustic alarm.

  • The SF SOS Automatic Scratch Detector (Cat PH116-B) can be easily set to detect any scratch-type, even of few microns.

  • The operator can immediately evaluate the entity of the scratch from the monitor screen and intervene to remove its cause.

  • Available on option a serial communication for statistic and report on the incidents.

  • Easy to assemble on any type of cine-film processor, is perfectly suitable for B/W and colour, positive and negative film-processing.

FSC FilmStroboChecker (Cat. CINE4)

  

FSC displays the complete film surface with zooming possibility

  • Easy to fit on any cine film processor (negative and positive), ensures a non stop quality monitoring during all film processing phases.

    •

  • A perfectly clear vision is provided by a special led backlight-based video strobo system that visualizes, while processing, the total film surface, scene and perforations up to the border line without flickering at any transport speed.

    •

  • Possibility to crop into the film details such as perforations, analog & digital sound tracks (Dolby-DTS-Sony) to better control the standard quality of processing.

 

Negative inversion to better identify faults such as pressure marks

  • The negative-film, black and white or colour, is displayed on the monitor in positive with optionally, the possibility to control the colour (RGB), to better enhance otherwise invisible defects, including pressure marks typical of high sensitive film.

  • The zooming function allows to observe in real time, during the processing operations, little details as through a microscope in order to find immediately dust, blemishes, damaged perforations, scratches or processing problems.

 

 

The Optical Scratch Finder displays any scratch otherwise invisible…

 

  • The SF Optical Unit, made-up of a special CCD and Infrared lighting, enhances any surface fault during all processing phases.

  • Available on option, the SF SOS Automatic Scratch Detector (Cat PH 116-B) to identify and alert the operator with an acoustic alarm in case of scratch.

    •

  •  

    • The economizer on the strobo ensures a flicker-free view at any speed and the strobo view can be freezed on the screen or recorded on VHS or DVD writing devices.

  •  

    •  The sensor group containing the two CCD (colour and b/w) with their respective backlights, is ready to be easily fixed after the dryer of any processor.

FSC FilmStroboChecker Accessories

 
SF SOS Automatic Scratch Detector (Cat. PH116-B) connected to FSC FilmStroboChecker emits an acoustic signal for any identified scratch, showing it clearly on monitor screen during processing.

 

 

 

 

  • Infrared emission at 950nM.

  • Video-Analog output.

  • Adjustable sensitivity.

  • As an option, serial communication of the reading status is available for statistical and report purposes.

RGB Video colour corrector (Cat. CINE8-1)

 

This special accessory allows an easy and accurate RGB,  White and Black level correction. A digital display on the remote panel control shows the operator the value of each single channel correction. Provided with component output for recording necessities.

 

 

Autochecker 35 DLX (Cat CINE9)

  
 

 

The new Autochecker CINE 35 DLX has been specifically designed to satisfy the requirements of the Top of the Front End Labs for maximum automation and quality control in order to ensure always the maximum  level in negative processing.

This advanced technology device automatically identifies and stops immediately any fault or phisical condition of the film potentially unsafe for a correct development.

Autochecker remarks with a beep border tears, broken perforations, overturned emulsion and any other of the film damages: 

 

Cuts of any dimension on the edges between perforations (very dangerous because it can occur a breakage of the film during processing phase).

Cuts of any dimension between perforations and edges.

Damaged perforations; and in this case the operator can decide how many perforations must be broken to stop the film.

Updown emulsion (sometimes happens when the film has been spliced wrongly.

Scratches, abrasions or folds between perforations on both sides of the film (scena area).

Blemishes, bad splices, adhesive tapes, staples or any anomaly onto scena area.
 

Once found and stopped the fault is positioned exactly over the splicer matrix for quick and easy film  mending

 

  • secure film-loading system
  • easy darkroom operations
  • 200 feet/min checking-speed
  • CPU controlled tension
  • up to 2000 feet capacity spool
  • film-splicing unit M3 35 DKR
  • film-mending unit M3 35 2FR

 AVAILABLE ALSO FOR 16MM
