SCAN MASTER 0 4838
The SCAN MASTER 0 4838 redefines large-format book scanning with a new design and enhanced performance. As an evolution of the popular SCAN MASTER 0 3650, this model adopts the same back-to-front scanning principle as the SCAN MASTER 1 and 2, offering faster throughput and superior flexibility. Built for demanding digitisation projects, it features a motorised book cradle with 35 cm lift (extendable to 50 cm) to support larger, heavier materials.
With V3D (Visual 3D) Technology, it captures both flat and textured surfaces with unmatched realism and depth, while its LED lighting system delivers consistent, UV- and IR-free illumination. Designed for archives, libraries, and museums, the SCAN MASTER 0 4838 combines precision, productivity, and care for delicate originals.
