DESCRIPTION

The ACS 4600 Aperture Card Scanners are monochrome scanners for microfilm mounted on aperture cards. They are cost effective solutions for fast, high volume scanning and workstation engineering. The Aperture Card Scanners support automatic scanning features such as a built-in automatic card feeder and a separate bin for sorting out and collecting rejected cards. There is a multitude of microfilms in the world but with the technological progress, digital filing has become a cheaper and thus attractive alternative to microfilm filing. Also, digital filing is more flexible and requires less space than filing on microfilm. Many businesses have therefore launched projects to convert microfilms into digital data, by scanning aperture cards with digitizers from Contex.
