Scanning or copying pages from large format books has always been an unwieldy task and scanning fragile large format documents using sheet feeder scanners means risk of damage to the documents.
The BookScanner 5005MAX makes these tasks easy and safe. Scanning from overhead, protecting the binding of the books and at the same time producing high quality color, grayscale and black & white images, faster than any other scanner that uses line CCD technology.
Largest Scan Area + Highest Resolution
The BookScanner 5005MAX can scan a book as large as 24” tall x 35 7/8” wide (609 x 914 mm) when open flat and single sheets as large as 24” tall x 36” wide (609 x 914 mm), at true 400 DPI optical resolution with highest scanning resolution of 600 DPI.
Formats Supported
The BookScanner 5005MAX supports the most popular formats: TIFF, JPEG, JPEG 2000, PDF, PDF/A and uncompressed Color, Grayscale, Black & White TIFF.
Quality Scans
Image quality is the most important requirement to the user. The BookScanner 5005MAX is designed for sharp, high resolution, high quality images due to its use of two 3-Line CCDs, 7500 pixel each that travel across the material being scanned. This produces distortion free images, of uniform sharpness corner to corner.
Fast Speed and Bi-Directional for Maximum Productivity
The BookScanner 5005MAX is fast at 2.5 seconds per scan when scanning at 400 DPI the entire 24” x 36” (609 x 914 mm) scan area at 400 DPI in color. No time is wasted because this scanner is a bi-directional scanner.
Superior Illumination
In any imaging system, good illumination is important to produce high quality results. The BookScanner 5005MAX uses a bank of powerful long life LEDs that only illuminate a small portion of the original at any one time and travel with the imaging system to produce vivid, high quality images.
Built-in Self Adjusting Book Cradle
Prevent damage to spines of thick books and even out the two sides of the book to obtain flat and focused images with the help of the built-in self adjusting book cradle and cover glass.
Vertically Rising Cover Glass
To make turning pages of large format books easy, the cover glass moves vertically up with minimal effort thanks to the counter balance springs.
