Book Scanners

SMA 11

The SMA 11 is a versatile scanner for books, newspapers, photographs, maps, architectural drawings and other documents up to A1.

Operation Independant fromAmbient Light

A special cold-light illuminator without any ultraviolet and infrared radiation guarantees harmless and uniform illumination. As the illuminator is located inside the scan head and is simply moved across the original it doesn’t matter where the scanner is being placed. Bright sunlight or intensive ceiling light does not interfere in the scanning process. Further there is no external light source irritating the operator.

Please note that ambient light is way more harmful to the original than the illuminator utilized in the SMA 11!

HighQualityColorScanning Technology

The SMA 11 is equipped with a unique scan engine. It provides high quality images based on state of the art technology. Bitonal, grey scale or color images can be produced with an optical resolution of 400 dpi. A 600 dpi scan optic is optional available.

NetworkingMadeEasy

The SMA 11 is a network scanner. Communication with the PC takes place via network card.

Versatile, Versatile, Versatile...

The SMA 11 is equipped with a book cradle as a standard feature. The operator can choose within seconds whether he wants to use the flat table or the state of the art book cradle. Further a special book cradle for books that cannot be opened entirely can be attached just like this.

Amajor highlight is the newly designed scanning concept. The operator can choose whether he want to scan with or without glass plate. Thus, very fragile originals which are prohibited to be touched can be scanned without physical impact - but in the same outstanding quality. Removing the glass plate is a fully automatic,motor driven process and only takes a fewseconds. Book cradle and scanner are being operated conveniently via foot switch.
