ElarScan A2/C2 KS

Популярен модел за дигитализация с или без стълко за притискане на оргиналите.

ElarScan A2-KS е планетарен скенер за ежедневна дигитализация на потоци от книги, списания, каталози, вестници и различни видове подвързани и плоски документи до формат A2 +. Безконтактният метод на дигитализация елиминира механичното въздействие върху оригиналите, осигурявайки тяхната безопасност.

Основните характеристики на модификацията на KS са плоско сгъваемо стъкло и автоматизирана люлка, позволяваща внимателно притискане на оригинал към стъклото отдолу с помощта на натискащото управление на силата на натискане.

Дизайнът на оптичната система на скенера включва RGB сензор, позволяващ висококачествена дигитализация с възможност за автоматично фокусиране и автоматично настройване на оригинали с различна дебелина и текстури. Скенерът се предлага с две опции на оптичната система:

ElarScan A2-400KS има професионална CMOS RGB 24 MP камера и е идеален за ефективна дигитализация на текстови документи и книги с добро качество.
ElarScan A2-600KS разполага с професионална CMOS RGB 50 MP камера, която разширява възможностите за използване на скенера за цифровизация на графики, повредени документи и текстове с ниска контрастност.

Модификацията ElarScan A2-KS е оборудвана с V-образна автоматизирана люлка за книги с независимо регулиране на плочите спрямо различна дебелина на оригиналите и допълнителна вдлъбнатина за гърба на книгата. Везната може да се отвори при 90, 120 до 180 градуса и е проектирана да сканира оригинали с дебелина до 10 см и тегло до 15 кг. Отделно повдигане на плочите позволява сканиране на оригиналите, повдигащи дясната и лявата страница отделно. Всички основни елементи на дизайна на люлката на книгата са изработени от метал и имат висок ресурс на работа при максимално натоварване.

Скенерът има модул с налягане за автоматично затваряне на стъклото, който позволява ефективно сканиране на оригинали при 180 градусов режим по време на поточно сканиране. Модулът има фиксиращи механизми в хоризонтално и вертикално положение, което позволява сканиране и без стъкло.

Работата със скенера е изключително удобна и не изисква специални умения от страна на потребителя, което позволява бързо и ефективно сканиране, обработка и прехвърляне на всякакво количество данни: потребителят трябва само да постави документа на люлката (с лице нагоре) и да започне сканирането в някой от удобните начини: използване на вградения софтуер за управление, използване на дъна за сканиране на корпуса или чрез спускане на стъклената плоча.

ElarScan A2-KS е напълно автономно устройство с богат на функции вграден софтуер за масово сканиране и последваща обработка на електронни изображения. Електронните изображения се записват директно в паметта на скенера, външно USB устройство или незабавно в мрежата (в личната станция, сървъра или облачното хранилище на служителя). Функционалните и технически характеристики на ElarScan A2-KS гарантират най-обширните приложения за скенери. Департаментите, компаниите и институциите могат да го използват в обществената зона, а също така да организират масово цифровизиране на документи в поточен режим.

Едно от най-важните предимства на ElarScan A2-KS е цената му: скенерът е един от най-евтините планетарни скенери формат A2 + на пазара без консумативи, които трябва да се променят по време на работа. Следователно скенерът е изключително рентабилен с висока степен на надеждност по време на интензивна работа, а набор от функционални характеристики, технически и експлоатационни характеристики и софтуерни възможности в основната конфигурация го поставя на няколко нива по-високо от най-близките си конкуренти.

Overview

ElarScan A2-KS is a standalone scanning device that can operate without connection to a workstation. The scanner can save the received images to external USB drives or to network folders due to the six built-in USB ports and the Gigabit Ethernet network interface.

ElarScan А2-KS has a camera with high resolution CMOS RGB sensor with high depth of definition and a macro module, which allows digitization of small objects and individual areas of the originals with high optic resolution without software interpolation. To ensure accurate focusing of the optical system on non-contrast originals, the scanner has a built-in laser module for focus area illumination. The scanned original is displayed in real time on a FHD widescreen monitor.

The scanner has an adaptive LED repro type illumination system that does not have harmful ultraviolet and infrared effects on the originals and ensures even distribution of light on the surface of the original. The illumination system used in ElarScan enables almost complete elimination of ambient light, glares and shadows even when using glass plates. The illumination system is activated during scanning, but it can be set to a constant mode. The lamps offer an option of adjusting the light stream direction.

The built-in original hold-down system with a flat fold-back tempered glass plate and a fixing mechanism in the horizontal position allows for effective evening out of the originals’ surfaces. If you need to work without the glass plate, it can be fixed in the vertical position.

Cradle

ElarScan А2-KS has a V-shaped automatic book cradle with different placeholder opening modes and angles. This allows the scanner to digitize various types of originals in formats up to А2+: from a flat document to books and stapled documents up to 10 cm thick and weighing up to 15 kg, including incomplete or partial disclosure.

The cradle has opening angles of 180 to 90 degrees, at the same time the halves can be lifted separately and slid together and apart; when apart, there is a recess under the book spine in the cradle, which eliminates the risk of damage. The cradle is also fit with a mechanism for automatic smooth adjustment by height. The cradle is controlled from the scanner panel.

Embedded software

The high quality, high color accuracy and absence of geometrical distortions of electronic images when scanning on ElarScan A2-KS results from two main factors: modern optical system and rich embedded software processing capabilities.

The embedded ScanImage software is a complete set of tools that control all stages of digitization: scanning, image processing, quality control and indexing of images. There is a possibility of administering and controlling the users’ work, there is a configurable file directory structure, and also control of the usage statistics.

Additional modules and accessories

The design of ElarScan А2-KS scanner uses all the most advanced technologies and materials. The housing of the scanner is made of high-strength composite plastic fastened on metal base to impart overall strength and durability of the structure. This is especially important for scanning when the maximum protection from parasite vibrations is required.

The control panel of the ElarScan А2-KS scanner is made with consideration of the many years of accumulated experience of book scanner production, the selected dust and moisture protection structure has LED indication of the operation modes. All the panel buttons have visual icons and symbols in English.

For user’s convenience, scanning can be launched in several ways:

with the scan start buttons on the scanner panel;
through the embedded software interface;
by interval (after a specified period of time);
by automatic page flip detection function;
with the control footswitch (option);
by pressing the original with the glass plate;
