Lake Image Systems launches software subsidiary

Lake Image Systems, a supplier of verification and inspection systems, has launched a subsidiary, Lake Image Web Technologies. The new company will develop software tools and products for sale exclusively through the LakeImage group of companies.   

The move is said to reflect Lake Image’s desire to extend its reach and grow beyond its existing market of digital printers and mailing houses into the wider commercial printing market where integrated variable data reading and print quality inspection are increasingly required.  

LakeImage has already launched IntegraVisionPQ which provides commercial printers and label manufacturers with consistent repeatability, essential in pharmaceutical, medical, and food packaging printing. 

Martin Keats, UK managing director of Lake Image, explained:  ‘With the merging of variable print data and high quality label and continuous printing technologies we aim to provide a complete toolset to meet combined data integrity and print quality inspection demands. We are getting a fantastic response to IntegraVision Discovery and PQ and feel there are many more opportunities to develop our technologies further for the continuous print, web and label inspection markets.’ 

LakeImage is currently recruiting senior developers to work with new company on developing its first product set due to launch in early 2010.
