  • Customer cards
  • Scratch cards
  • Driver's licenses
  • Other personalized cards
  • Printer output
  • Everything else - in motion

The LineScan engine HS94 has a scan rate of up to 32000 lines/sec and arrives at a resolution of 300dpi at a product speed of 9ft/sec.

Easy to integrate

We can do more for you than just deliver the LineScan engine. We also help you to integrate the product in your IT environment.

If you are an OEM - why not add the functionality of the LineScan engine to your application?

The LineScan engine comes with different options - you only have to pay for what you use.

Multiple engines can be linked together using a network - so you can stay in touch if you have a more complex environment.
