Image Access WideTEK 12 Spectrum Flatbed Scanner

Description

Fastest UV, VIS, IR, 3D and Backlight Flatbed Scanner in A3+ (12 x 18 inch) Format WT12-650-SPECTRUM

WideTEK 12 SPECTRUM flatbed scanner is a high-performance A3+ scanning platform engineered for applications that demand more than standard color capture. Designed to reveal security features, surface structure, and hidden contrast details, it combines UV (365 nm), visible (VIS), IR (850 nm), 3D surface imaging, and built-in backlight scanning in one compact, production-ready system.

This scanner was built for authenticity verification of banknotes, passports, ID cards, certificates, and other secured documents. Using multispectral illumination and a backlight in the lid, operators can detect watermarks, semi-transparent features, and specialty inks that are not visible under normal lighting. For industrial quality control and surface inspection, the integrated 3D scanning mode captures fine textures and height variation with exceptional clarity, supporting use cases such as verifying Braille embossing on packaging or inspecting SMD parts on electronic boards.

Speed supports real throughput in professional environments. Full-area VIS or IR scans can be completed in under three seconds, while UV capture is completed in approximately twelve seconds. Combined with automatic crop and de-skew, on-the-fly rotation, and real-time preview adjustments, the WideTEK 12 SPECTRUM reduces handling time while improving consistency across repeatable inspection and verification processes.

Built on a secure, standalone Scan2Net platform, this model integrates easily into modern networks without requiring a dedicated workstation. Users can scan directly to USB, network destinations, FTP, and printers, and export to common production and archival formats including PDF, PDF/A, TIFF, JPEG, and multipage files.
