SMA 16

Launched in 2009 the SMA 16 is the latest member of the SMA Film Writer family along with the SMA 51 16/35mm Microfilm Writer. 

The SMA 16 has been designed to be a price competitive 16mm microfilm only unit. Based completely on the SMA 51, the SMA 16 has been engineered for those 16mm-only clients that want a lower priced unit than the SMA 51

• • One of the lowest priced Film Writers in the market

• • Only 16mm-only Film Writer with Greyscale capability

• • Has an optional 300m cartridge for quickly converting images to bulk rolls of microfilm

• • Can print 1, 2 or 3 level blip onto the film and image numbering

• • Writes to conventional 16mm camera microfilm, the same film that is used in conventional microfilm cameras. This avoids the need for expensive bespoke film and allows the user to choose between different manufacturers of conventional silver microfilm. Both thin (2.5mil) and thick (5mil) film can be used depending on the application and to maximise storage density by using long length thin film.

• • Can be upgraded to 35mm capability

• • The SMA 16 can accept TIFF, JPEG, PDF, DOC and XLS etc digital documents in bitonal, greyscale or colour.

• • Original document size can range from postcard (A6) all the way through to A3.

• • Speed of the SMA 16 is up to 7200 images per hour.

• • Price and system includes operating software which manages the downloaded files. Standard interfaces are used which allow the unit to write the images unattended once transfer has been completed.
