WideTEK® 25-650
Wide Format Flatbed for All Markets

Large format color flatbed scanner for documents up to 18.5 x 25"
Enhanced with backlight for transparent source material, like X-rays
WideTEK® 25-650, the world´s fastest large format color flatbed, covers applications in every market, whether it is in the medical, government, industrial or graphics arts sector. It scans the full bed (DINA2+, 18.5x25".) at 300dpi color in less than three seconds, which is two times faster than the closest competition.
The new scratch resistant, non-reflective glass plate has been expanded to reach the edges of the scanner, making it 100% protective of the documents laid on it. No more bent or folded edges on your source documents.
Backlight Unit for X-rays, film, negatives and more
The WideTEK® 25-650 brings you an even higher return on investment with the addition of the new WT25-BACKLIGHT option for scanning transparent material of all kinds, like X-rays, glass negatives, 35mm microfilm aperture cards, cutout stencils, sepias and film.

Above is an example of the various media scanned with the backlight unit.
The scans are at the top and the source material below.
The optional backlight unit replaces the standard scanner lid. It is easily assembled and users can scan with or without the backlight, depending on the source material requirements, by simply switching the light on or off. The unit can be purchased separately for customers who already own a WideTEK 25-650. If you are a service provider, this gives you even more ways to generate revenues with your WideTEK 25.
In the medical sector, operators can scan negatives, radiography, cardio plaques and larger paper documents in black and white, color or grayscale as required. The WideTEK 25 is compact, only (76cm, 30") wide, so it will fit in any doctor´s office or hospital floor.
There are many film scanners available on the market for small image formats and even medium sized images, but in the large format range, film scanners are very rare and/or prohibitively expensive. The WideTEK 25-650 wide format scanner goes far beyond just film scanning and does it an a surprisingly affordable price.
Municipalities, cadastral offices, oil companies, GIS services and other government agencies use the WideTEK 12-650 to digitize and archive a number of different types of documents. But the WideTEK 25 flatbed scanner is also ideal for photographers, galleries, advertising agencies and graphic artists to present and preserve their work in a digital format.
2D and 3D scanning
The revolutionary 3D scanning mode opens many new opportunities in the printing and industrial inspection markets.

The 3D scanning mode captures the texture of surfaces so perfectly that the scan on a screen looks like the real thing.
The WideTEK 25 has two LED lamps, twice as many as the competition. With their new diffusers, these lamps produce an extremely homogeneous illumination which eliminates all unwanted shadows caused by folds, wrinkles and other distortions of the scanned object.
It also comes with a built-in 64bit Linux PC running on an Intel i3 quad core processor and 8GB of memory.
Using the latest camera technology this scanner exceeds all criteria set forth in the FADGI *** and Metamorfoze light guidelines.
Simply put, there is no better large format flatbed scanner on the market than the WideTEK 25-650, with or without the optional backlight unit.
