Colortrac SmartLF SGi 36 CCD image technology

Powered by advanced CCD scanning technology, the Colortrac SmartLF SGi 36 delivers exceptionally detailed images with excellent colour accuracy and realism. Using six CCD image sensors and offering up to 1200 dpi optical resolution, it captures fine detail with confidence. The higher focal length also allows the scanner to cope easily with originals that feature raised surface detail.

Scan media up to 15 mm thick

With adjustable media thickness control, the SmartLF SGi 36 supports scanning of materials from 2 mm up to 15 mm thick. This versatility makes it easy to digitise everything from standard documents to items printed on card, canvas, or board, making it ideal for professional users in graphic design, printing, and related industries.

Colortrac SmartLF SGi 36 speed and performance

High accuracy and image quality do not come at the expense of productivity. The Colortrac SmartLF SGi 36 is designed for efficient, high-volume workflows, delivering monochrome scanning speeds of up to 13 inches per second. Colour models scan at 4 inches per second, with Colour Enhanced models increasing colour speeds to an impressive 8 inches per second. Fast data transfer is supported via USB 3.0 or Gigabit Ethernet*.

SureDrive feed technology

Colortrac’s SureDrive feed technology ensures originals are transported smoothly and evenly through the scanner. By applying consistent pressure across the full scan width, it improves document handling while positioning media optimally over the scanning head to achieve the best possible image quality.

Colortrac SmartLF SGi 36 easy-to-use software included

The SmartLF SGi 36 includes SmartWorks Touch software for simple, intuitive operation. With built-in presets and automatic size detection, users can select a preset, load a document, and scan with ease. Custom presets and essential editing tools are also available to fine-tune results.

For advanced requirements, the scanner integrates seamlessly with SmartWorks Imaging, a professional software solution offering additional productivity features. Updated for 2025, it now includes FADGI 3-star compliance for even higher image quality standards.
