Automatic Robotic Book Scanner (Automatic Page Turning)

 

Innovative, efficient, gentle
and globally unique

Turn over a new leaf . . .
Mass Digitization

With the new, automatic ScanRobot® book scanner, it is possible for the first time to complete projects of mass digitization, both efficiently and at an economically reasonable price.

Innovative

The innovative scanning technology enables the automatic scanning of books from the 15th century to the present. Books with different paper densities, porosities and varying textures can be scanned simply, safely and extremely gently.

Gentle

The book is opened only slightly for scanning (the opening angle is approx. 60 degrees) which prevents overstretching and damage to the spine of the book.

Distortion-free

Thanks to the unique prism technology, combined with
automatic book cradle alignment, every scan – independent of the book thickness – is distortion-free up to the book binding.

Text Recognition (OCR) Distortion-free scanning of the book pages ensures that automatic conversion into readable text ("Optical Character Recognition" or OCR) can be carried out considerably faster than heretofore and almost error-free.
Illumination The illumination (LED cold light) developed by Treventus enables glare-free scanning without any exposure to heat, infrared or UV. Unlike conventional procedures, the exposure to light is only for a few milliseconds, thereby reducing the entire light exposure for the book to a previously unattainable minimum.
Robust & Low Maintenance

The solid comprehensive solution and the use of high quality industrial components make the ScanRobot® suitable for 24h-shift operation. A minimum of movable, mechanical parts ensures extremely low maintenance.

Advantages at a glance:

  • Gentle book handling due to 60° opening angle
  • Distortion-free scanning up to the book binding
  • Automatic book cradle alignment
  • No prolonged light exposure -for book and user
  • Economic -8X faster scanning than manual scanning
  • Universal -suitable for even the most difficult book stocks
  • "Made in Austria" quality
