The ADC Compact Plus digitizer accommodates multiple users and manual interaction
features a drop-and-go buffer that eliminates waiting times; all the necessary
user has to do is to deposit cassettes. The ADC Compact Plus digitizer
automatically takes the cassettes from the input buffer, reads the

High Productivity
The cassette buffers virtually eliminate waiting times for the staff and
bring the average throughput of the system close to maximum: when
cassettes are in the input buffer, the system operates automatically at
maximum speed, without idle times. No-button/no-switch operation
with automated cassette handling makes the ADC Compact Plus
digitizer a highly productive and user-friendly system, with a
throughput of 90–100 plates an hour depending on size.
