Scanning time

Posted on 30. June 202223. August 2023 by Karin

Scanning time basically refers to the speed at which a scanner performs a scan. It should be noted that, in contrast to the process time, which covers the entire cycle including image processing and data storage, the scanning speed only includes the pure capturing time.

In order to achieve comparability between different scanning systems, it is therefore essential that the scanning speed is always specified in relation to the format and resolution, e.g. 400 dpi for A2 color.z.B. 400 dpi bei A2 Color.

Semi-robotics

Posted on 28. June 20226. March 2024 by Karin

Die book2net Scanner Cobra, Flash, Mosquito, Hornet und Dragon sind als Spezial- und Produktionsscanner für die Massendigitalisierung großformatiger sowie unhandlicher und schwerer Vorlagen konzipiert.

Um dabei eine schonenden, effizienten und zugleich anwenderfreundlichen Ablauf zu garantieren, sind diese Systeme mit einer Scanautomatik zur komfortablen und variablen Steuerung von Buchwippe/Vorlagentisch und Glasandruck ausgestattet.

Industrielle Standards und Komponenten wie Präzisionsführung, Linearantrieb und SPS-Steuerung garantieren eine leichtgängige und gleichmäßige Führung und Einstellung aller beweglichen Elemente.

So können die Systeme gezielt an die Ablaufprozesse der jeweiligen Projektanforderungen angepasst werden. Die Scan-Ablaufprozesse können dabei individuell programmiert werden. Wahlweise stehen dafür unterschiedliche Programme zur vollautomatischen, halbautomatischen oder rein manuellen Bedienung zur Verfügung. Die Verfahrwege können dabei entsprechend des Vorlagenformates optimiert werden.

Opening angle

Posted on 28. June 20226. March 2024 by Karin

Einstellbare Öffnungswinkel bei Buchwippe und Glasandruck sind Grundvoraussetzungen bei der professionellen Digitalisierung.

Konservatorische Digitalisierung

Die Digitalisierung von kostbaren oder empfindlichen Büchern und gebundenen Dokumenten, die aus konservatorischen Gründen nur mit einem geringen Öffnungswinkel digitalisiert werden dürfen, erfordert eine Reduzierung des Öffnungswinkels auf kleiner als 180°. Dafür haben wir bei book2net spezielle V-Scanner unterschiedlichster Größe entwickelt.

High-Performance Digitalisierung

Zur Gewährleistung eines reibungslosen Workflows ist es insbesondere im Bereich der Massendigitalisierung wichtig, die Scan- und Prozesszeiten möglichst gering zu halten und dem Anwender dabei ein Höchstmaß an Bedienkomfort zu bieten. Die Professionellen Systeme von book2net verfügen daher über eine automatische Höhenverstellung und Andruckkontrolle, die es erlaubt, die Verfahrwege der Buchwippe bzw. des Glasandruckes individuell an die Vorlagen anzupassen.

Book2net bietet eine Vielfalt an Buchscannern mit reduziertem einstellbaren Öffnungswinkel der Buchwippe und Glasplatte an, wie z.B. unsere Modelle Cobra A1/A2, Falcon, Lizard und Dragon.

Height compensation

Posted on 28. June 202222. August 2023 by Karin

Book cradle

In order to ensure a true-to-scale, distortion-free high-quality scanning of bound originals, a flat surface of the original is necessary. Professional systems therefore have adjustable or self-adjusting book cradles that automatically compensate for the difference in height between the halves of the original during page turning.

Book2net systems therefore offer book cradles with self-adjusting technology or individually controllable support plates, depending on the requirements.

Glass plate

In order to scan books of different thicknesses gently and efficiently, even with glass plates, professional systems have a height adjustment system for the glass plate that allows the pressure and travel paths to be set precisely to the book thickness.

This is used in particular with semi-robotic high-performance scanners such as the book2net Cobra, Flash, Mosquito, Hornet and Dragon.

Glass plate

Posted on 28. June 202228. June 2022 by Karin

In order to ensure a true-to-scale, distortion-free high-quality image when digitizing bound originals, one of the requirements is that the surface of the original must be absolutely flat. For this reason, many professional scanning systems work with additional glass or Makrolon© plate pressure systems.^©.

In addition, to guarantee that books of different thicknesses and states of preservation can also be scanned gently and efficiently using glass plates, professional systems operate with advanced adjustment systems for the glass plate allowing the pressure and travel paths to be set precisely and individually as required.

This is used in particular with high-performance scanners with semi-robotics such as the book2net Cobra, Flash, Mosquito, Hornet and Dragon.

Professional book scanners also offer special non-reflective glass with UV protection (museum glass) to minimize light exposure, especially for valuable originals such as incunabula and manuscripts.

Interlock

Posted on 28. June 202217. April 2024 by Karin

Book cradle

Mechanical book cradles that are designed for a support angle of up to 180° usually also have a so-called book cradle lock. This works like a brake that prevents the book cradle from making compensating movements during the scan and thus prevents blurring. In addition, there is often also the option of locking the book cradle as a whole by hand or foot switch and using it only as a flat support table.

Glass plate

Professional scanning systems that work with glass printing also have the option of locking the open glass plate to enable scanning without glass printing for particularly sensitive originals.

Electromagnetic spectrum

Posted on 20. June 202210. October 2022 by Karin

The electromagnetic spectrum describes the detectable and measurable wavelengths (lambda in m) and frequencies (in Hz) that occur in nature and classifies radiation according to wavelength into types of radiation ranging from gamma radiation to low frequency.

The division into different ranges of electromagnetic radiation serves to visualize, describe and compare their different properties and effects on our environment. One possible type of radiation is visible light, which can be divided into the color spectrum. However, this part, which is visible to the human eye, is only a small part that occurs in nature. The wavelength of visible light is about the size of a cell (1nm = 10-9m = 0.000 000 001m).

On the common scale of the electromagnetic spectrum, on the left is the range of long-wave UV radiation (10-10m), which contains higher energies. We know this range of the electromagnetic spectrum mainly from solar radiation. An even higher energy than UV radiation is contained in X-rays and gamma radiation, which are used in medicine for X-ray images and radiation therapy for cancer.

In the middle range of the electromagnetic spectrum is the only range visible to the human eye. This acts as the light spectrum.

Among the more curvilinear radiations with low energy, which are located on the scale to the right of the visible range, is infrared radiation. It is also called thermal radiation, because every object and living being mainly emits this radiation. The wavelength here is about the size of a nail tip (10-5m). Infrared radiation is followed by microwave radiation, radio waves and low frequency radiation.

Color spectrum

Posted on 20. June 202211. October 2022 by Karin

Color spectrum = Light spectrum: Wavelength range of the electromagnetic spectrum that can be perceived by the human eye.

Light spectrum

Posted on 20. June 202220. June 2022 by Karin

The light spectrum is the visible range of the electromagnetic spectrum that can be perceived by the eye. The spectral range visible to humans is between 380 and 780 nanometers, corresponding to a frequency range of about 4·10¹⁴ to 7.5·10 14 Hz.

Each wavelength produces a different color, for example green has a wavelength of about 540nm and blue is between 450 and 500nm. If all visible wavelengths are displayed next to each other, a rainbow-like color gradient appears. In addition, there are wavelength ranges that the human eye cannot see or perceive because there is no trigger for a pulse. These ranges are called ultra-violet (10-380nm) and infrared radiation (>780nm). The shorter a wavelength is, the more energy it has. This is also the reason why ultraviolet light is so harmful for our skin and our eyes, because in the long run it stimulates molecules to change their spatial structure and to split off single atoms.
