WideSCAN™: The future of machine vision

WideSCAN scan line bars are precision-engineered components for inline inspection and scanning tasks, designed to integrate seamlessly into custom systems such as industrial production lines or single-pass printers. Available in sizes from 12 to 120 inches and with either CIS or CCD technology, they deliver high-speed, high-resolution performance in a compact, plug-and-play design—ideal for quality assurance, image capture, and print calibration.

Highlights that make the difference

Sizes & sensors

From 12 to 120 inches, with CIS or CCD technology – tailored to your needs.

Seamless integration

No frame grabber, no external controller – just plug in, configure, and scan.

High quality illumination

Consistent, glare-free illumination – with optional UV and IR lighting for analytical applications.

Connect via Scan2Net®

Network-ready and platform-independent. Integrate with your existing systems via Gigabit Ethernet.

Industrial-grade housing

Sealed, dust-resistant, IP54 protected construction for 24/7 use in production environments.

Attractive pricing

Premium WideSCAN technology – available from just €100 per inch.

Designed for integration

Small footprint that fits into almost all machines – rugged design, IP54 protection, fanless convection cooling, and full performance up to 40 °C (100°F).

From fragmented systems to one single source

Traditional machine vision setups often rely on a mix of third-party components — each with its own interface, requirements, and support chain. WideSCAN simplifies this process. All critical components come from a single source – Image Access – and are designed to work seamlessly together. Configuration is in your hands, giving you greater control, faster implementation, and less hassle.

Where the scanning happens

The blue line indicates the focal point: 11 mm (CIS) or 26 mm (CCD) above the protective glass – providing sufficient clearance for most applications.

Surface inspection in 3D

WideSCAN products support high-level quality control through a dedicated 3D mode that detects surface textures and height variations – ideal for applications such as print inspection, embossing control, and material analysis in a single scan pass.

Scan2Net® Connectivity

Scan2Net® powers all WideSCAN products, replacing specialized hardware links with standard Ethernet and web-based control – simple, fast, and globally compatible.

Precision illumination for accurate results

WideSCAN systems use high-quality white LED lighting with a color rendering index (CRI) above 95, delivering true-to-life color reproduction. The uniform, glare-free light ensures stable performance even in demanding ambient conditions – ideal for color measurement and inspection workflows.

Full-spectrum capability

UV and IR lighting options extend the capabilities of selected WideSCAN models beyond the visible spectrum. With integrated UVA (365 nm) and IR (850 nm) illumination, these systems support a wide range of analytical applications – from material differentiation and surface inspection to fluorescence-based imaging.

The additional wavelengths can be activated selectively, offering enhanced flexibility for specialized workflows without altering the compact design or scan performance.

For every system size and scanning need

WideSCAN scan line bars are available in CIS and CCD technology, from 12″ to 120″, ready for high-speed inline integration.

Choose the controller that fits your setup

WideSCAN systems are not tied to a fixed controller. Instead, you can select the Scan2Net® computer that best suits your specific requirements – whether it’s based on scan width, performance needs, or network infrastructure. For systems wider than 60″, the high-performance model is required. For smaller systems, both options are available.
