WideTEK® 36C

Fastest Wide Format CIS Scanner on the Market

3 times faster scanning

Image Access raises the bar again. The WideTEK 36C-600 scans at 10"/s (254mm/s) even at 300dpi color which is three times faster than any other CIS scanner. It even outperforms the most expensive CCD scanners by a factor of two.

3 times more processing power

widetek48c

The WideTEK 36C-600 comes with a built-in 64bit Linux PC running on an Intel i3 quad core processor and has more than three times the processing power compared to it's predecessor.

3 times more memory

The internal image memory has been tripled from 2GB to 6GB which boosts the maximum scan length at 300dpi color to 50 feet or 16m. Crop & deskew performed on such a long document still only takes about 45 seconds.

3 times faster to install

Unpack, assemble floorstand, power up, assign an IP address and scan to network resources, wireless to iPADs and Androids or simply to a USB drive – all in less than 1 hour. Compare this to the results from any other scanner vendor.

3 times cheaper to operate

The total cost of ownership is three times less than with most competitors. The Extended Warranty Coverage is the best program in the industry; it even includes glass, transport and pressure drums.

The only thing we did not change is the price.

WideTEK® 36C Compliance

Image Access scanners are environmentally friendly, comply to the highest security standards and do not interfere with other devices. We have also made sure that no harmful radiation in the form of electromagnetic emission and UV or infrared light exists. Because these kinds of scanners are heavy production machines with inherent risks to the operator, no one should operate a scanner from a vendor who cannot provide at least an IEC/UL 60950 safety report.

Image Access scanners conform to the many national and international standards which are listed below. Our scanners have been tested and certified by independent laboratories and we can also provide test reports of each standard on paper upon request.
