Because of the overhead scanning technique implemented by the Bookeye® family of book scanners, Bookeye® 3 R2 is ideal for gentle scanning or copying of bound and large format documents: books, maps, newspapers, folders stapled originals, drawings up to A2+, and much more. Documents remain in their ”natural” state on the scan surface. They do not need to be unbound, separated or carefully positioned. Using the glass plate, the documents can be pressed gently against the book cradle which can be adjusted for height to achieve an optimal scan result. The automatic electronic book fold correction smoothes the curvature of the book fold. The Bookeye® 3 is available either as a color or gray scale unit. The gray scale unit can be easily upgraded to a color scanner after purchase. Bookeye® 3 is an efficient solution distinguished by high scan speed, durable lamps and nearly no consumables; guaranteeing efficient production with a quick return on investment. Technological advancements such as high performance LED illumination, precise scan lenses and CCD image sensors set new standards in scanning speed and quality.
