TECHNOLOGY EXPLAINED

XY-STITCH
iQsmart scanners use an exclusive scanning technology called
XY-Stitch. This facility delivers consistent sharpness and resolution
across the entire scanning bed. This uniformity and precision
means that any size original can be scanned at the highest
resolution available when placed anywhere on the scanning bed.
Other CCD scanners use zooming and multiple lens technology
that provide a ‘sweet spot’ for higher resolutions (often a narrow
strip down the middle of the bed) and are limited to much lower
resolutions for larger originals.

INVERTED CCD
The iQsmart innovative inverted CCD (Charge Coupled Device) is
a unique design feature that virtually eliminates fine dust particles
that settle on the surface of the CCD head, a major source of
image degradation. This type of dust contamination has plagued
CCD scanners due to the amount of retouching needed to remove
dust ‘noise’ from the scanned image.

16 BIT DIGITAL TRANSPARENCY (DT)
The 16 Bit Digital Transparency file feature captures the maximum
amount of data from the original being scanned in Raw 16 Bit. The
DT file is the perfect solution for archiving applications as the file
can be rapidly recalled and re-purposed for print, screen or web.
800% or more are required.

16 BIT SOOM WORKFLOW
Scan Once Output Many (SOOM) workflow permits Raw 16 Bit DT
files to be re-purposed for as many different uses as required
without the need to re-scan.

OIL MOUNTING STATION (OMS)
The OMS is another unique design feature used exclusively by the
iQsmart and EverSmart scanner ranges. The scanner base glass
has a simple removal system so that it can be taken out and
replaced by the off-line OMS frame. Use of multiple OMS frames
greatly improves productivity in demanding environments. Bathing
film in oil conceals cracks and scratches (reducing retouching time)
and enhances image quality particularly where enlargements of
800% or more are required.
