InoTec SCAMAX®3×1

Genuine production scan for the mid-volume segment. Our smallest not only dominates its class. It completely redefines it.

No more compromises! The SCAMAX® 3×1 brings true production scanning to the mid-volume segment – and sets completely new standards there. As the little brother of the throughput sensation SCAMAX® 6×1, it combines the 24/7 DNA and numerous premium functionalities of the world’s leading desktop device with even more compact device dimensions and even more favorable conditions. This allows you to handle even comparatively small daily volumes with the quality and reliability of a high-end production scanner, without using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. Optimized in terms of price and performance for daily throughputs ranging from three-digit to five-digit figures, the SCAMAX® 3×1 is the highest quality and most cost-effective choice whenever excellent results, intuitive usability and long product life are the key selection criteria.

Call it the middleweight champ. The new standard in the mid-volume class. Or a class of its own. We call it an InoTec production scanner. Made in Germany.

 

Features

• Perfect Document Technology

for complete image processing on board: among other things, gamma correction, bicubic deskew, cropping and dynamic binarization for perfect bitonal images. In addition, Perfect Document Technology offers functions like multistreaming (simultaneous output of color, grayscale and bitonal images), automatic blank page detection, content based rotation, automatic color detection, patch-code controlled color changeover and much more.

• Belt transport system, gentle to paper

for safe transportation even of difficult documents: wear-free, maintenance-free, cleaning-free.

• FADGI*** & ISO 19264-1 (B)

Proven scan quality according to the digitization guidelines for archiving of technical documentations, cultural heritage materials and many other documents.

• Readily accessible transport path

for easy cleaning and fast removal of jammed documents.

• Traffic light logic

for fast, intuitive handling.

• Document sorting at full scan speed

by event control: e.g. by patch-code, counter, document length, barcodes (1D & 2D) etc.

• Speed selection

for touch-screen controlled adjustment of the scan speed, even during the processing of the scan project. A specific scan speed can be assigned by the scanner settings to every scan project.

• Variable input pressure

for optimized document input depending on document quality and size.

• NoSCRATCH glass guide

for guaranteed scratch resistance to paper clips and staples (with a three-year NoSCRATCH warranty on glass guides).

• 7” MultiTouch Communication Panel

for maximum user friendliness and intuitive operation. With easily understandable pictograms, traffic light logic and clear full text messages.

• SlowDown Modus

for scanning with reduced scan speed for critical document types.

• Straight paper throughput

by means of rear document output with active switch (admission height 2 mm).

• Transport width and scan width up to 317.5 mm

for processing tabs and separating pages.

 

High throughput … is not everything.

High throughput may be the most striking feature of a production scanner. In the mid-volume segment, however, it is other features and success factors that allow users to scan with ease and productivity: the highest scan quality, availability and user-friendliness on the one hand, and smart features and functionalities on the other. In other words, state-of-the-art digitization does not always require the highest throughputs. But always genuine production scanners.
