Book scanners and wide-format scanners

  • Book scanners and wide-format scanners
  • Zeutschel's book scanners make it possible to digitise even the most sensitive materials. Their extremely high processing speed combined with lighting systems that operate without UV radiation protect both the original document and the user. This means that books, maps, and historical writings can be perfectly preserved for future generations.

Book copiers

  • Book copiers
  • Ideal for fronts of libraries, Zeutschel’s book copiers offer face-up scanning, eliminating the need to flatten books against a glass plate and preventing spine damage. Connect the scanner to a printer to print copies, or save the scanned pages as JPEGs, PDFs or TIFFs.

    Pages can be previewed and corrected, preventing wasted printouts. B&W copies are processed in 1 second; colour copies in 4 seconds.

Zeutschel highlights

  • No heat, UV and infra-red light generation: Zeutschel's scanners are ideal for scanning fragile, sensitive and historical documents
  • Reflection from high gloss originals is eliminated as the scanner is back-lit and the light source is well above the document
  • The OS14000 scanners are the only ones in the world to meet NARA (US National Archives and Records Administration) and Metamorfoze (Europe) standards
  • 64-bit technology and multi-threading enables parallel scanning and image saving
  • Perfect Book software auto-corrects spine curvature and shadow - there's no need to flatten books against a glass plate
  • OS12 software offers sophisticated image enhancement, adjustment and correction - in parallel with scanning. It also enables simultaneous capture of metadata (e.g. book title, page numbers, etc.), output as CSV or XML.
