Stroboscope for Flexo and Rotogravure Printing Machines
A stroboscope is a device that uses short bursts of intense light to make fast-moving objects appear stationary or moving in slow motion. This optical illusion is based on the phenomenon of "persistence of vision". By shining light at a frequency synchronous with the object's movement, our eyes see the object as if it is frozen in time, allowing us to examine intricate details that are otherwise invisible to the naked eye. Working principle The working principle of a stroboscope revolves around the synchronization of the brightness of light with the movement of the observed object. When the frequency of flashes of light matches the frequency of movement of the object, the object appears slow or stationary. This effect is achieved by interrupting the motion of the object at precise intervals with bursts of light, creating the illusion of stop motion. Types of stroboscope Stroboscopes, with their ability to freeze motion and highlight hidden details, have become indispe
