2905 Film Digitizer

Overview

The 2905 laser film digitizer is an advanced image scanner engineered to read radiographic films and convert them into high-quality digital data. Using precision laser technology, the 2905 accurately scans even the densest film areas with exceptional speed and clarity.

With a USB 2.0 interface for high-speed data transfer, the 2905 integrates seamlessly into modern workflows. Optional features include an auto feeder capable of processing up to 100 films of varying sizes, and a roll film adapter for 100mm-wide continuous films.

When paired with included scanning software, the system supports DICOM/DICONDE communication for sending images to servers, and can create high-quality digital duplicates using a DICOM imager, streamlining archival and distribution processes.

Engineered for precision, built for reliability

2905 Features

Superior Image Quality

The critical factor in film digitization is the ability to reproduce dark, high-density areas. The 2905 film digitizer features a wide dynamic range supporting optical densities up to 4.3 OD (or 4.7 OD with the high-density option), excelling in gradation reproduction.

Laser technology minimizes noise in high-density regions, accurately capturing subtle gradations that CCD-based scanners struggle with. The internal 14-bit A/D converter delivers 16,384 gradations with linear optical density for natural, detailed tones.

Pixel spacing: 50 μm to 2,000 μm in 1 μm increments

German BAM Evaluation

Evaluated by Germany's BAM (Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing) in 2003 after rigorous testing. Recognized as the world's first DS9-grade film digitizer with the high-density option (DB9-grade with standard configuration).

High-Speed Performance

Scan a half-size film (14" x 17") in approximately 6 seconds at 200 μm resolution in standard mode. Noticeably faster than CCD-based digitizers, maximizing productivity without compromising quality.

Flexible Film Handling

Supports long films such as 14" x 42" and special-sized films (up to 364mm short side). Optional auto feeder processes up to 100 films of different sizes in a single batch, or allows single-sheet manual scanning.

DICOM/DICONDE Integration

Optional scanning software enables seamless communication with DICOM and DICONDE image servers. Create high-quality, full-size digital duplicates using a DICOM imager, or use Copy Mode for duplication without server transmission.
