The WideTEK 25 Backlight Unit is an optional accessory designed specifically for the WideTEK 25-650 flatbed scanner. It expands the scanner’s functionality by enabling high-quality digitisation of transparent materials such as X-rays, film, glass negatives, microfilm aperture cards and other translucent originals.
This backlight unit replaces the standard lid of the WideTEK 25-650 and is quick and easy to install. Users can scan with or without the backlight by simply switching the light on or off, allowing seamless handling of both reflective and transparent source materials on the same scanner. The accessory can be purchased separately, making it an ideal upgrade for existing WideTEK 25-650 owners and service providers seeking additional revenue opportunities.
With a compact width of just 76 cm, the WideTEK 25-650 remains suitable for space-restricted environments such as medical practices, laboratories and hospital departments. When fitted with the backlight unit, it supports professional scanning of radiography, cardio plates, negatives and large format documents with exceptional speed and image quality.
Large format film scanners are often expensive and difficult to source. The WideTEK 25-650 Backlight Unit Accessory provides a cost-effective alternative that extends the scanner well beyond standard document digitisation.
