What is aperture card scanning?
The Aperture Card is a customary Hollerith encoded card transported for a 35mm transparency. We offer a scanning service that gives you the finest quality image taken from microfilm. Aperture cards are usually used to store items such as drawing, maps, engineering and spare parts listings. Images stored in aperture cards are scanned on high-speed automated Photo Matrix equipment by IDSL, reaching a maximum of 600dpi resolution.
APERTURE CARD DATA SCANNED AND STORED DIGITALLY
SCANNED DATA SOLUTIONS THAT WORK FOR YOUR NEEDS
When it comes to scanning your data we provide free consultations with all of our clients, to analyse and assess the archive of an aperture card. This then leads to the creation of a scanning solution tailored to meet the needs of your project. When the aperture card has gone through the scanning process, it can be indexed by:
​
-
Issue Number

Drawing Number / Part Number / Date

Client Name

Drawing Description
