Digitizing Line 4DigitalBooks: Turns & Scans Up To 3000 Pages/Hr

Atiz BookDrive can scan 248 pages per hour in color and 500 per hour in black and white. Kirtas' APT BookScan 1200 can scan up to 1200 pages per hour. But both book scanners cannot compete with the world's fastest (and biggest) book scanner Digitizing Line 4DigitalBooks.

The Digitizing Line turns and scans 1500 to 3000 pages per hour. 4DigitalBooks ensures that only one page is turned at a time. This means that no page would be missed or would be scanned twice. The Digitizing Line is suitable for all types of books, magazines and newspapers for the business of professional scanning. According to their website, it is as easy to use as a photocopy machine.

There is no need to specify the size of the book prior to process it as the Digitizing Line has a set of sensors that measure all necessary dimensions of the book. After loading the book on the automatic book cradle, the Digitizing Line would automatically measure the book. There is no way for the operator to enter a wrong value or make a mistake that would damage either the book or the Digitizing Line.

Every time a page is picked up, the page detector checks if there is only one page. If more pages are stuck together, pages are released and the pick up process is repeated differently. The efficiency of the page detector is spectacular as it discriminates even if pages with radical thickness or porosity are stuck together. Turning pages without making sure that only one page has been turned at a time makes no sense to 4DigitalBooks. Imagine what would be to scan a book of 1000 pages and to get 999 files or less ?

During the process of turning pages, the page is pushed to the left by the right moving glass. The interface between the page and the glass is a special profile with an adequate soft shape. The fore edge of this profile presents a page-push air-blower that creates an air cushion between the page and the profile itself, that allows to gently push the page by air, without friction.
