Quantum Software

Roll film. Ribbon scanning. Strip scanning. Complete capture. Quantum is the most advanced microfilm scanning and processing software on the market.

Quantum Scan allows you to: scan an entire roll of film in minutes (full roll ribbon scanning); detect all images and flag those that need review; ensure 100% accurate image detection with a host of manual & automatic features. Quantum Process makes it possible to: edit image detection and make changes to both, grayscale and bitonal image quality without ever having to reload a roll of film; store strips to make as many changes as necessary to obtain the highest quality images; process even poor-quality or degraded film without missing images.

Key benefits of Quantum Scanning & Processing Software include:

  • Increased operator production
  • Scan at full-rated speeds without operator intervention
  • Share quality assurance tasks with multiple operators
  • Drive multiple MACH series scanners with a single operator
  • Significantly reduced scanning costs
  • Never search for lost images
  • Eliminate the need to reload & rescan
  • Guaranteed 100% image capture
  • Superior image quality
