Market Overview:
The global microfilm scanners market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for on-demand microfilm scanners and production microfilm scanners from libraries, universities and museums, institutions and government agencies, service bureaus and providers, and others. Additionally, the growing adoption of digital technologies has led to an increase in the demand for microfilm scanning solutions across various industries.
Product Definition:
Microfilm scanners are used to create digital images of microfilm. They are often used in libraries to digitize their collections. The importance of microfilm scanners is that they make it possible to access old documents that would otherwise be difficult to find or read.
On-demand Microfilm Scanners:
On-demand microfilm scanners are electronic devices used to read images of microfilms or microfiche. They are portable and can be operated by individuals without any training. On-demand scanners offer features such as high speed, the ability to work with untrained users, low investment cost, and easy maintenance & repair as compared to conventional systems. These factors have increased their popularity in recent years among small businesses that need a scanner but do not want to invest heavily in one.
Production Microfilm Scanners:
Production microfilm scanners are used to capture images of the original document. It is a non-contact method which uses light and image capturing technology. The system works on transparent sheets of film by directing light upon it and detecting the images formed under the sheet.
Application Insights:
The libraries application segment accounted for the largest revenue share in 2016 and is projected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. This can be attributed to growing demand from both public and private libraries across various regions. Microfilm scanners are used for digitizing old documents, books, magazines, etc., thereby making them accessible on online library resources. The availability of online resources has led to an increase in demand among internet users across the globe; this trend is expected to drive growth over the next few years.
Microfilm scanners also find applications in archives where they are used for managing historical documents or photographs as well as safeguarding important information by reducing paper volume without compromising with quality. Other than this, these devices are widely used at institutions and government agencies where they safeguard important papers from damage or theft by reducing paper volume without compromising with quality (scans).
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017. North America has a well-established film industry and is home to several major players such as Agfa Corporation, Fujifilm Holdings Corporation, and Ilford Ltd. Hence, it attracts significant revenue from microfilm scanner manufacturers across the globe for licensing their products. The region’s dominance can also be attributed to increasing outsourcing activities by companies based in North America for providing services to other countries around the world through various shipping lines or logistics providers.
Asia Pacific is expected to grow at a lucrative rate over the forecast period owing to increasing government initiatives towards digitization of historical records coupled with growing awareness about these scanners among researchers and librarians working on microfilm projects worldwide.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for microfilm scanners in the banking and financial sector for document scanning and archiving purposes.
- Proliferation of digital data is resulting in increased demand for microfilm scanners for conversion of physical documents to electronic format.
- Growing popularity of document management systems is also contributing to the growth of the market.
- Rising number of small and medium businesses is fueling the demand for low-cost microfilm scanners.
