Description
Extreme Compatibility
Compatible with the DT Atom, DT Versa, and DT Element, the DT V-Cradle provides conservation-friendly, preservation-grade, fast and efficient digitization of A3 bound material (up to 17” x 12”). Its unique design incorporates a tilt-inward mount for the camera to provide ergonomic digitization without increasing the footprint of the system.
Extreme Adjustability
The adjustable cradle itself accommodates three book-opening angles: 100° (similar to a book held in a reading room, 180° (which allows capture of full page spreads), and 80° for material that is especially rare and fragile. Its unique design always holds the book at an angle, so that the opposite page isn’t fighting gravity.
No More Glass Ceiling
The removable glass uses a lift-assist mechanism to improve the ergonomics of the user over long periods of use. The glass can be fully removed in less than a minute when even the minimal operator-controlled contact with the glass is not suitable for a given material.
No Detail Ignored
To ensure the safety of the binding, the mechanism of the book platform freely slides forward and backward to guarantee the gutter is always properly aligned to the captured frame. This also ensures the glass, if used, cannot produce undue pressure on the binding.
