The Book2net Lizard scanner is a V-shaped system designed for institutions that need fast, accurate and gentle digitization of bound materials.
It provides a clear and efficient way to scan books and documents without forcing them flat, which helps protect fragile collections. In addition, the V-shaped design offers excellent support for books with tight bindings or delicate spines.

The system uses two X71 megapixel cameras to capture high-quality images across a 110° opening angle. As a result, users can digitize books and oversized documents quickly while maintaining consistent clarity and color accuracy. The adjustable LED lighting system ensures uniform, cold-light illumination that protects sensitive materials and reduces glare.

Because the Lizard includes advanced optics, a flexible book cradle and optional butterfly page holders, it can handle a wide range of materials with ease. Moreover, its fast scanning speed and reliable processing make it ideal for libraries, archives, museums and offices that need a dependable V-shaped scanning solution for daily use.
