High-speed scanner sorter ImageValue 20P series

OCRMICRbarcode

Overview

The ImageValue 20P Series is a high-speed, high-resolution printing, marking and document scanning-sorting system designed for heavy-volume mixed-form processing and digital transformation projects. As a core component of industrial document processing infrastructure, its open-track air vacuum transport combined with in-house LED illumination and high-speed cameras ensures high image quality, improved OCR rates and gentle handling across varied paper types and sizes.

Key highlights

• Ultra-high throughput: up to 600 sheets per minute (A4 short-edge feed equivalent) depending on model and settings.
• Open-track air vacuum transport: minimizes contact to reduce damage and soiling while enabling mixed-size/media processing.
• High-precision in-house image system: bright LED illumination and high-speed R,G,B CCD cameras for superior OCR results (optical resolution up to 300 DPI; selectable output up to 600 DPI).
• Flexible sorter configurations: single-pocket scanner or multi-pocket sorter options from 1 to 48 classification pockets to match operational needs.
• Operational efficiency: large hopper capacity, automatic/hand feeding with ultrasonic double-feed detection, automatic de-skew and gap control feeder option.

Typical Applications and Use Cases

The ImageValue 20P Series is trusted across a wide range of industries where high-volume, high-accuracy document processing is critical:

• Banking and financial services: High-throughput scanning and sorting of tax payment slips, bank transfer forms, deposit/withdrawal vouchers, and mixed back-office documents. Supports centralised administrative processing centres handling multi-branch consolidated workflows, including inter-bank BPO arrangements in non-competitive operational areas.
• Insurance: High-volume scanning of policy applications, claim forms, and customer correspondence as part of image workflow (IWF) and BPO operations — enabling efficient routing, AI-assisted classification, and disaster-resilient processing.
• Public services and local government: Rapid scanning and classification of tax payment notices and municipal revenue documents. Supports high-speed capture for local tax bureaus and government administrative centres processing large seasonal document volumes.
• Education and examination bodies: Accurate, high-speed processing of standardised test answer sheets and evaluation forms. Deployed in national-level scholastic ability assessment systems requiring objective, rapid and reliable scanning at scale.
• Retail and logistics: Sorting and digitalisation of shipping labels, delivery slips, and mixed commercial documents in distribution and logistics back-office operations.

Available options & special functions

• Inkjet numbering/printing: pre-image, post-image front and back printing with multiple ink types and capacity modules.
• MICR reader (E-13B/CMC7) for magnetic character recognition.
• Barcode/QR recognition: software real-time decoding and specialized hardware for stealth detection.
• Stealth printing (invisible ink) with recognition capabilities.
• Coderec: real-time alphanumeric character recognition.
• ScanPlus: real-time image quality checking and unusable-image detection (soiled, torn corners, etc.).
• Classification pocket configurations: 1–48 pockets (model-dependent) for sorting and load distribution.
• Custom support: sealed-letter/envelope handling and address-window film QR-code recognition.
