In the world of large-format digitization, Image Access WideTEK scanners have set the benchmark for innovation and reliability. Designed for precision, speed, and ease of use, these scanners outperform competitors in every category. Whether for libraries, archives, museums, or design firms, WideTEK delivers unmatched image quality and workflow efficiency.

Here is what differentiate WideTEK Large Format Scanners from Other Brands

1. Complete Range for Every Large Format Need

WideTEK scanners come in sizes of 36-inch (915 mm), 44-inch (1118 mm), 48-inch (1220 mm), and 60-inch (1570 mm). Some models feature CIS camera technology, while others use CCD sensors to deliver exceptional results. This diverse range covers every professional need, from detailed maps to large artworks.

Most competitors offer only limited models, forcing users to compromise. WideTEK, however, provides the widest selection of sizes and technologies, ensuring the right solution for every scanning challenge.

2. Built-In Power for Seamless Operation

Every WideTEK scanner comes ready to run, with a built-in PC featuring a 64-bit Linux operating system, Intel quad-core processor, 8GB RAM, and 128GB SSD. This integration allows long, uninterrupted scans without requiring any external computer.

In contrast, other manufacturers rely on external PCs, increasing cost and setup complexity. WideTEK’s all-in-one design simplifies installation and guarantees stable, high-speed performance.

3. Exceptional Value with Included Accessories

WideTEK scanners are bundled with a 21” full HD multitouch display, a screen holder, and a high stand — all standard. Most other brands charge extra for these essential accessories.

This bundled package delivers superior value, enabling professionals to start scanning immediately with no additional purchases.

4. Record-Breaking Scanning Speeds

With speeds of up to 22.9 meters per minute (15 inches per second), WideTEK scanners are among the fastest in the world. Users can digitize large documents, maps, or blueprints in seconds.

This exceptional speed, paired with precise color accuracy, saves time while maintaining professional-grade quality.

5. Wireless Freedom with Scan2PAD

The optional Scan2PAD feature enables seamless, wireless scanning directly to Android or iOS devices. Users can preview, edit, and share scans instantly without cables or additional software.

A mobility that transforms traditional workflows and supports flexible, on-the-go digitization.

6. Direct Scanning to Multiple Destinations

Thanks to its GBit Fast Ethernet and TCP/IP-based Scan2Net interface, WideTEK scanners can send scans directly to SMB, FTP, email, USB, or printers.

This smart connectivity eliminates bottlenecks and ensures efficient data sharing across networks, improving productivity across teams.

7. Quality That Exceeds Global Standards

Every WideTEK model exceeds FADGI 4-star guidelines and meets ISO 19264-1 standards for image quality. Users can trust that every scan preserves the full detail, tone, and color of the original document.

This level of precision makes WideTEK scanners ideal for heritage and archival digitization projects where quality is non-negotiable.

8. Advanced Software with No Installation Needed

WideTEK’s integrated software — ScanWizard and EasyScan — run directly inside the scanner. They work through any browser on Windows, Mac, or Linux systems.

There’s no software to install and no extra PC required. This browser-based design ensures effortless operation, updates, and remote access.

9. Built for Safety, Efficiency, and Compliance

All WideTEK scanners are CE, UL, cUL, WEEE, RoHS, and Energy Star compliant. These certifications reflect Image Access’s commitment to environmental safety and global manufacturing standards.

Users gain peace of mind knowing their equipment meets the strictest compliance requirements worldwide.

10. ABTec Solution Presence
