WideTEK 48ART Scanner

WideTEK 48ART Scanner delivers contact-free scanning of fine art paintings and artwork up to 48x80 inches using 5 CCD cameras at 1200 dpi. The WideTEK 48ART Scanner revolutionizes fine-art digitization with contact-free scanning technology that safeguards valuable paintings, watercolors, and mixed-media pieces from any risk of damage. Engineered for museums, galleries, professional artists, and serious collectors, it delivers museum-grade digital reproductions that faithfully capture the character and craftsmanship of the original work. At the heart of the system are 5 high-resolution CCD cameras that capture artwork at a stunning 1200 dpi with accurate, true-to-life color reproduction. Its expansive 48" x 80" scanning bed comfortably accommodates large-format paintings, drawings, and mixed-media pieces, while advanced 3D texture mapping records the subtle details that define fine art — brush strokes, canvas weave, wood grain, and surface relief — bringing depth and dimension to every digital file. Designed for both performance and ease of use, the WideTEK 48ART offers an adjustable clearance of up to 9.5" to accommodate thick frames and dimensional artwork, paired with a motorized table (with manual override) for smooth, precise positioning of every piece. Operators stay in full control through a 17" HD touchscreen with a visual control window, making setup and scanning intuitive from start to finish. Despite its precision, the scanner delivers impressive throughput — 1.66 ips at 300 dpi for standard color scans and 0.83 ips when capturing full 3D texture detail — so studios and institutions can digitize their collections efficiently without compromising quality.
