Microfiche come in many different formats from the normal sheet film to Jackets, AB Dick fiche, COM, 16 and 35mm combination jackets, silver or diazo, negative or positive.
Producing superior quality images from the various formats requires a batch scanner that is both productive and flexible that uses the most advanced software and the latest imaging technology.
The FS150 and FS300 from Wicks and Wilson offer all of the above with our SCANFICHE software and SMARTSCAN image processing. A simple innovative system of fiche carriers totally eliminates the normal handling and static problems associated with microfiche.
Additional features or options include 256 level greyscale and centering, grid locations or frame edge detection, full fiche imaging and more
Features:
- True production fiche scanner, featuring a unique auto-feed closed cartridge system to hold the fiche securely during scan; prevents any possibility of fiche either sticking together or being misplaced during the batch scanning process. The accuracy and reliability of the feed system removes the need for a pre-scan of every fiche during batch scanning; increasing productivity and throughput.
- Interactive graphical wizards provide a quick and easy method of configuring detection and sizing parameters prior to batch scanning. Once saved in a Job Setup, all parameters are easily retrieved at a later date.
- Numerous file naming options available; single or multipage, cell indexing or manual naming. Fiche indexing permits operator-entered fields to be used with double key entry, guarantees indexing accuracy.
- Smartscan, the Wicks and Wilson designed 12-bit image processing system for microfilm, provides real-time control of on-board advanced imaging tools for both bitonal and 256-level greyscale imaging.
- Dual save increases productivity for poor quality film by simultaneously capturing a high-quality greyscale duplicate of the bitonal data.
- Continuous data output produces contiguous files, with or without gaps, enabling uninterrupted data to be created for offline processing.
- Powerful batch-check mode allows full image QA without slowing the scanner or impacting throughput.
- Comprehensive file logging capability produces customisable report of batch process.
