Since 2009 on the market
· The slides are
hold in magazines with 25 slide positions
· 6 magazines can be
hold in the input and output stack during 1 session.
· Designed for
brightfield an fluorescent scan sessions.
· The scan speed
depends highly on the used computer configuration and the speed of the camera.
· Today, all
references to the SCAN, PSCAN or SCAN150 referring to this version of scanner.
Allowed slide dimensions are defined as:
Length: 75.00 to 76.00 mm
Width: 25.00 to 26.00 mm
Thickness: 00.95 to 01.05 mm
The SCAN exists in a full version (SCAN_FL) where the Reflector turret
unit is included and a more cost-effective version (SCAN _BF) without the
Reflector turret unit, so only brightfield scan sessions are possible.
Magazine, used in the Pannoramic SCAN
· A gear on the rear
of the magazine allows the movement of the magazine in the feeder channel.
· The permanent
magnet is used to detect the presence of a magazine in the input stack and the
state “Output stack full” in the output stack (P250 only).
· By filling
magazines in the input stack and continuously removing finished magazines from
the output stack during the scan session is in progress, a “Continuous mode” of
the scan session can be performed.
· To reduce the
amount of different magazines, the construction of the magazine for SCAN and
P250 is identical, but the permanent magnet acts only in the P250.
