New alliance will create a comprehensive ECM and Micrographics Conversion Solutions provider

ST Imaging logoNORTHBROOK, Ill.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– ST Imaging (ST), (www.stimaging.com), a division of Digital Check® and technology provider of digital microfilm and book scanning technology, has acquired nextScan Inc., the industry’s top manufacturer of high performance production Microfilm Scanners and Workflow Software Technology. “This is a combination of two leading microfilm system manufacturers that will allow both companies to offer new products and services to their existing customers and micrographic users,” says Tom Anderson, president and CEO of Digital Check.

nextScan, (www.nextscan.com), is a world leader in cutting edge technology for the micrographics conversion field and has traditionally served the very high end market for film conversion. nextScan’s systems are designed to capture and process images at up to 2,000 frames per minute and are known for their exceptional image quality. “This acquisition by Digital Check will be of significant benefit to both nextScan and ST Imaging. By combining resources and technology, nextScan and ST Imaging will soon be able to offer the fastest conversion speeds and feature rich imaging enhancement software to all segments in the micrographics marketplace from small public libraries to the largest governmental or private conversion projects,” says Kurt Breish, president and CEO of nextScan Inc., Boise, ID.

“The mission and corporate direction of both ST Imaging and nextScan have historically been to lower the cost of microfilm and microfiche conversion and provide increased access to film libraries. This new partnership will enable large and complex conversion projects to be financially feasible,” says Bruce Rennecker, vice president and general manager of ST Imaging.

nextScan will continue operating out of its offices in Boise, ID, as a division of Digital Check. Current customers of both companies will see no change in their relationship or interactions with the companies.
