ROWE Scan 850i
Editor’s Note: German scanner manufacturer ROWE recently joined the IRgA, and asked us to share some important facts about their scanners.
1. Reliability in everyday use
“We were looking for a system that simply works—day after day, without failures.”
This is how many customers describe their first experience with ROWE scanners. The devices are designed for continuous operation, work stably even under high loads, and are so intuitive that new employees can find their way around within a few minutes.
2. Made in Germany – 100% in-house
ROWE Scan 850i
Hardware and software are designed, developed, and tested in Germany in the company's in-house development department. This guarantees maximum precision, perfect coordination of all components, and long-term supply of spare parts – even after years of use. Customers thus benefit from systems that are optimally coordinated and deliver maximum operational reliability.
3. A complete portfolio – from 24 to 60 inches
With the ROWE Scan 450i (24“, 36”, 44“) and ROWE Scan 850i (44”, 55“, 60”) product lines, ROWE covers the entire spectrum between 24 and 60 inches. Both models offer an optical resolution of 1200 x 2400 dpi, a virtually unlimited scan length, and patented features.
The highlight: The 850i can be optionally equipped with fully automatic, electric height adjustment – for originals up to 1.18 inches thick, at the touch of a button.
4. Patented features for maximum efficiency
“We were impressed by how much the details improve the workflow.”
- Automatic Width Recognition: No more tedious back-and-forth movement; the scanner recognizes the format during scanning.
- Dynamic Width Recognition: Even damaged corners or irregular edges are no problem. The software reliably determines the correct width.
- Safe Guard & Safe Drive: Protection against paper jams and gentle scanning of sensitive documents.
- Reflector roller technology: Specially shaped reflector rollers reduce the main contact between the original and the scan glass to an area outside the actual scan zone. This can extend the life of the scan glass by up to 500%.
5. Efficiency at the touch of a button and intuitive operation
“We save a noticeable amount of time today because many steps run automatically – and the system is incredibly easy to use.”
All important functions are visible directly on the user interface – without having to search through submenus. Together with freely programmable hot keys, complex workflows can be bundled: For example, a document is scanned, saved in black and white as a PDF, printed in color, and sent by email at the same time – all in a single process, simply at the touch of a button.
With ROWE scanners, digitization is not only easier, but also significantly more efficient – made in Germany.
