Provide high quality and high resolution scanned images

Dual CCD Sensor Design -1600 dpi Optical Resolution

A320L provides up to 1600 dpi*(1)ensures superexcellent definition and depth pictures in detail and fine texture, also provides the environment of visual intensive works, such as animation, visual effect, photography and graphic design.

*(1) DPI stands for Dots Per Inch which technically means dots per inch. Also is what we call “Resolution” the higher the dpi, higher dpi provides finer details and larger outputs (a 12″x17″ scanned image in 1600 dpi can generate up to 6.24″ x 8.8″ ) in 300dpi outputs.

Bright Colors and Accurate Image Reproduction

Compare to CIS (Contact Imaging Sensor), CCD (Charged Coupled Device) provides outstanding optical density.

In addition to being more detailed and dedicated in the dark parts of the images, it can also obtain a wider color range through grayscale correction. Relatively provides perfect color images and lower noise.

Stereoscopic Image Details

A320L has higher depth of field, scan result will be clear enough even if the scan object is 10mm away from the glass surface.

For instance, the staked strokes of oil painting and the texture of cloth and paper. Even the architrave can be wonderfully presented.

Preserve all your precious photos

Time past cannot be called back again, especially for your memory. Unfortunately, the old photos will turn yellow or be missing.

Digitize them will be your better choice, for storing, sharing and refreshing. A320L comes with Sony CCD sensor, brings better image quality, also has higher light sensitivity, which ensures better dynamic range and noise-reducing.

Professional art reproduction

A professional high-resolution CCD flatbed scanner will be your better choice to backup gallery artwork compared to general camera.

It is difficult to assure the right illumination when you are photographing artworks. In order to highlight the image correctly, the working area requires to be bright enough for representing changes in color and details perfectly. But any direct light will cause a certain extent of shadows in other parts of the image.

A320L is an ideal artwork solution for artwork scanning. The artwork can be scanned flat, the painting will not be damaged or destroyed because it is not fed through scanner. Thanks to outstanding depth of field, you can scan with frame, increasing the completeness of digitized painting. A320L is suitable for scanning photos, graphic art and colored documents, because of its wide color range and high resolution.

Exquisite fabric scanning

Scan with CCD flatbed scanner to show the detail of textile and fabric, clearly express the integrity, handmade techniques and details of the fabric.

The scanning object has very uniform illumination during the scanning process because the A320L contains with dual light source technology, which is suitable for fabric industry creating sample image and digital presentation.

Design Industry production

Color accuracy plays an important role in many industries, such as textile and modeling. Any differences in color may render productions unusable, affecting supply and causing waste of materials.

Plustek A320L can be implemented at each stage of the production process, from design house to factory, ensuring the high color accuracy, preventing the risk of output-error and extracting standards can be met throughout the process.

Scan Solution for Your Workplace

For Gallery

It is an important part to create digital copy for gallery, not only for the poster and booklet creation, but also can provide a safe way to modify the work by several ways for artists or designers.

A suitable scanner can help to save the cost and increase the efficiency. A320L equipped with large depth of field, which is a perfect options to scan art frame along with the art itself, moreover, to decrease the risk of damaging the drawing, also increases the completeness of the art work.

For Artists

It is very usual to backup the works by general camera for future purpose, such as online exhibition, print out or produce portfolio.

It is difficult to assure the consistent illumination when you are photographing artworks, but the cost of hiring professional photographer will be much higher.

The double-sided light source of A320L can be a relief. Based on the existing technology and advantages of CCD sensor, A320L has wide color range and higher color reproduction. The capability of decreasing image noise helps to produces better result as well.

For Scenography-Flower Art

Scanners differs from regular camera in many aspects, especially the unique optical design of the scanner, which reach more details than the cameras.

A320L introduces CCD sensor, which has higher depth of field compared to other flatbed scanners.

Furthermore, the built-in double-sided light source provides clear and better image result of the part that is closer to the edge of the scanner, also with higher color saturation and uniform shadow effect.

For Human Body Modeling

The foot is one of the important limbs in the body structure; a proper foot pad can reduce the burden on the human body. Obtaining the foot model correctly will be a crucial part in the process of making a foot pad.

It is very common to use CCD flatbed scanner in the relevant industries. With extraordinary depth of field, you can scan the muscle texture of the soles of the foot, also stimulate the pressure of foot sole and the feeling of skin surface while standing.
