ADF scanner Avision AD360G — A4, CIS, 600 x 1200 DPI, 48-bit colour, 100-sheet ADF, duplex, LCD

The Avision AD360G is a compact sheet-fed scanner combining a 100-sheet automatic document feeder (ADF) with a flatbed-style capability to handle irregular sizes and hard cards. It uses a CIS sensor with optical resolution up to 600 x 1200 DPI, supports 48-bit colour input and duplex scanning, and is designed for high daily volumes up to 10,000 pages. The unit includes a built-in colour LCD and an LED light source, and accepts media from small receipts to A4 business documents as well as plastic or embossed cards.

Advantages

The AD360G offers fast throughput and mixed-batch handling by pairing an efficient ADF with flatbed-like convenience for cards and odd-size pages. Its advanced image processor automatically crops, straightens and optimizes scans to reduce manual correction. Robust paper handling—including a reverse roller and ultrasonic multi-feed detection—improves feeding reliability and reduces jams. The scanner is bundled with TWAIN/ISIS drivers and software (Button Manager, AVScan, PaperPort) for one-touch scanning to email, printer or cloud destinations.

Suitable for

• Offices and departments scanning high daily volumes (up to 10,000 pages)
• Businesses that need double-sided (duplex) scanning of A4 and smaller documents
• Environments that require scanning of plastic or embossed cards (IDs, credit cards) up to 1.25 mm
• Workflows that benefit from one-touch scanning to email, cloud storage or document management software

When it may not be suitable

The AD360G is optimized for A4 and smaller ISO A-series media and for card scanning up to 1.25 mm thickness; it is not intended for oversized large-format documents beyond A4. Organizations that require flatbed scanning of large bound books or very large-format originals may need a different scanner type. Also, as a CIS-based device, it has different depth-of-field characteristics than some contactless CCD or camera-based scanners, which may matter for very thick or irregular originals.

Key specifications

• Maximum media size: 216 x 356 mm (A4/Legal range)
• Optical scanning resolution: 600 x 1200 DPI
• Colour depth: 48-bit input
• Sensor type: CIS (Contact Image Sensor)
• Duplex (double-sided) scanning: Yes
• Automatic document feeder capacity: 100 sheets
• Daily duty cycle: up to 10,000 pages
• Supported media types: ISO A-series documents, business cards, plastic/embossed cards (up to 1.25 mm thick)
• Throughput: up to 80 pages per minute (single-sided) / 160 images per minute (duplex)

• Interface: USB (and Ethernet LAN support)
• Power consumption: AC 43 W
• Scanner weight: approximately 4.7 kg
• Operating noise level: 52 dB
• Internal memory: 512 MB

How to use

Place documents in the 100-sheet ADF or position individual cards and irregular items for single feeding. Use the built-in colour LCD and panel buttons to select the destination or a preset job, or use the bundled Button Manager software to set up one-touch profiles for email, cloud, printer or image-editing applications. Adjust basic image options via the bundled software or TWAIN/ISIS drivers; the scanner’s image processor will automatically crop, deskew and optimize scanned images.

What to consider before purchase

• Required maximum document size (device supports up to A4/216 x 356 mm)
• Need for plastic or embossed card scanning up to 1.25 mm thickness
• Expected daily scan volume (designed for up to 10,000 pages/day)
• Interface requirements: USB and optional Ethernet LAN availability
• Whether CIS sensor characteristics (close contact scanning) meet your depth-of-field needs

Recommendations

For reliable operation, load similarly sized documents when possible, enable ultrasonic multi-feed detection for mixed-weight batches, and create frequently used scan jobs with the Button Manager presets to streamline repetitive tasks.
