BookDrive Mark 2

Upgrade to Mark 2

Meet Mark 2, a successor to the BookDrive Pro, which was our best selling model.
Mark 2 has improved upon BookDrive Pro in so many ways based on actual feedback of the pro users that will really entice you to upgrade.

The Industry Standard

BookDrive is a de facto industry standard of how libraries around the world digitize their books today. A dual-camera “V” cradle imaging system captures images of books and print materials, without risk of damage to the items being scanned. This scanning solution pioneered by Atiz has become so successful that it is widely embraced even by competitors.

Superior Ergonomics, Comfort and Safety

Ergonomics, operator comfort and safety is most important and it has received a major upgrade.

Mark 2 is easier on your back, arms, eyes and ears.

No direct light facing toward users

The new custom light produces much better images, but more importantly, the light will not shine directly or bounce off the glass into the operator’s eyes.

Cool and silent operation

The new fan-less LED ensures the operation stay cool and silent the whole time creating a pleasant work environment. Suitable for library and office environment.

Lighting dims when turned off

Like a light in a luxury car cabin, it gently dims off when you turn it off so it’s less abrupt to your eyes.

The “V” System Gets a Major Upgrade

Better, scratch-resistant V platen

The V platen is made using a premium scratch-resistant material that is more transparent and durable than glass allowing for better scanned images. It is manufactured using a different production technique so that it allows you to scan deeper into the gutter.

Flexible cradle for thick-spine books

The new V cradle is better and more flexible. The cradle is adjustable, the angle altered and opened apart. This makes for optimal page contact for all kinds of book bindings and spine thicknesses. The self-centering cradle slides sideways during scanning keeping the books centered.

V platen so light

New V platen mechanics allow for the operator better control of the platen to mitigate risk of operator injury or damage to items being digitized. It is fingertip light to lift or lower. The platen hovers in the air and stays exactly where you position it.

Perfected Light Design for Greater Image Quality

Better image quality backed up by stats

Even light distribution with no bright or dark spot visible anywhere in the frame.

Brighter light equivalent to 2 stop speed shutter (compared with BookDrive Pro) and extra sharpness is achieved.

Canon Support

Designed from the ground up to support Canon DSLR cameras, both zoom lenses and prime lenses.

Conveniently slide your camera to the suggested position and begin shooting, your camera will be at the right distance

and height perfectly matching the size of the item you intend to scan.
