THE 120° BOOK HOLDER OPTION:
The 120° book holder option allows the digitization of books which cannot be opened flat to180° without any risk of deterioration. Due to the 120° angle, it is not possible to scan simultaneously both right and left pages in good conditions. The 120° book holder option maintains the volume with the appropriate open angle and allows the flat setting of the page to digitise (right or left) in parallel to the lighting.
The 120° option is dedicated to bound 2 x A3 format volumes, of a maximum thickness of 150mm, with possible angles of 100°, 120° and 140°. The book holder can be used on the 30 and 50cm book cradles. The 120° option uses the one-direction scanning mode from the left to the right hand-side.
Note that the 120° option can be equipped with a glass plate which allows the pages of the book to be flattened. As for the glass option, a security system prevents the system from digitizing while the glass is lifted.
