Overhead Book Scanner

BookTEK 5 V1A-C50

BookTEK 5 V1A-C50 is the wide format book scanner of choice for digitization projects which require formats more than DINA1+ with a thickness of up to 50cm

High-performance scanning for oversized originals

The BookTEK 5 V1A-C50 is designed for demanding digitization projects, combining speed, precision, and ease of use. Capable of handling originals up to A1 size and book thicknesses of 35 or 50 cm, this scanner streamlines workflows with its motorized glass plate and versatile book cradle. Whether working in fixed, glass-free, or fully automatic modes, this scanner delivers exceptional image quality for even the most challenging tasks.

Digitization in brilliant quality

A high-resolution linear CCD camera with laser-controlled autofocus precisely follows the curvature of books, scanning along the reading direction.

Even at 600 dpi with all image enhancements activated, scanning takes only 4 seconds, and the complete cycle time, including all glass plate movements, is under 8 seconds.

Motorized glass plate

The BookTEK 5 V1A-C50 features a motorized, adjustable glass plate. Its automated movements streamline the scanning process, gently lowering onto the book to apply just the right amount of pressure for high-quality scans without damaging delicate pages.

This scanner exceeds all criteria set forth in the FADGI *** and ISO 19264-1 level B guidelines.

Advanced book cradle design

The motor-driven book cradle handles books up to 35 cm high, with an optional upgrade to 50 cm, making it perfect for digitizing standard and oversized materials. Operators can easily switch between flat mode for open books and V-mode with a 140° opening angle to protect delicate spines and bindings.

Predefined book cradle modes

The BookTEK 5 V1A-C50 Book Cradle offers predefined modes for efficient scanning of various materials. Auto Mode enables fully automated operation, Book Mode scans open books flat, and V-mode gently handles delicate volumes with a 140° opening angle, ensuring excellent results while protecting fragile materials.

Dual monitor setup

With a spacious 27-inch 4K preview monitor in front of the operator for clear, detailed scanning feedback and a 21-inch Full HD multi-touchscreen for easy operation, this setup offers optimal control and visual clarity for smooth, efficient scanning.

Dark mode

Enhances scan quality through less light reflection and improves operation by reducing eye strain

Laser-assisted book fold correction

Effectively reduces annoying shadows and distortions in the center of a scanned image of a book when operators are scanning thick bound documents, resulting in a perfectly flat scanned image

LED Lighting

Four light bars, each containing bright white LEDs, provide always ready, IR/UV free illumination

Automatic finger and thumb removal

The user can hold books flat on the edge with their fingers without them being visible after the scan. The integrated Scan Wizard software removes these from the scanned image without leaving any residue.
