Phase One V-Twin Book Cradle

Phase One V-Twin Book Cradle

NEW from Phase One

The new V-Twin Book Digitization solution is a highly efficient and automated system for the most demanding book digitization projects. Supporting books with a size of A2+, maximum weight of 25kg and a spine thickness of up to 25cm, the V-Twin Book Cradle is constructed from high-grade aluminum extrusions and its chassis comes with a stable, reliable and long-lasting platform. Utilizing powerful, quiet electric motors that list and lower the upper and lower platens, it ensures the highest level of control and material safety. 

Two Phase One iXM-MV100 digital medium format cameras combined with the Linos 60mm/f4 lenses enables increased productivity with a wider coverage compared to other area sensor imaging systems.  An ultra-high resolution, backside illuminated sensor provides the highest image quality, the finest details, lowest noise and highest dynamic range at a fast capture rate. 

An optional glassless V cradle allows for the handling of rare and fragile books. 

The D8 R+ LED panels offer a bright and stable illumination with long lasting diodes and electronics. Capture One CH brings the best RAW processing engine along with flexible, intuitive UI and efficient capture and export workflow.
