Docuvan suggested renting the fine art scanner to smaller galleries so they could digitize their collections without having the expense of purchasing the scanner.&nbsp;  A bid was submitted and accepted by Creative Victoria, who, being a government agency, decided to fund scanning at a number of galleries around Victoria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first of these galleries was the <a

profile trolley was built to hold the scanner and a lifting solution was built into the back of the Mercedes van.&nbsp; Once the trolley was fitted, the scanner was lifted from 4 lugs, one on each corner of the trolley.&nbsp; The scanner is lifted up, and rolled forward on the overhead track into the van.&nbsp; It is then lowered and secured in the van.  Now, Docuvan can  arrive at a gallery and within 1 hour have the scanner setup, calibrated and operational.&nbsp; At the end of the event or rental period, it can be disassembled and back in the van, ready for transport in 45 minutes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> The scanner was first delivered to the Benalla Art Gallery in late April 2019 where the presentation took place and afterward, all of the artwork in the 36\u201d x 60\u201d format of the WideTEK 36ART scanner was digitized.   The scanner was on site for 4 weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"378\" height=\"283\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.imageaccess.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Docuvan7-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"3472\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/blog.imageaccess.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Docuvan7-1.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/blog.imageaccess.de\/?attachment_id=3472\" class=\"wp-image-3472\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"378\" height=\"283\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.imageaccess.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Docuvan6.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"3452\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/blog.imageaccess.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Docuvan6.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/blog.imageaccess.de\/?attachment_id=3452\" class=\"wp-image-3452\"\/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-caption\">The Benalla  Art Gallery, May 2019<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From the Benalla ART Gallery, the mobile art scanning configuration was moved it to the Latrobe Gallery in late May 2019.&nbsp; The Latrobe Gallery is located in Morwell to the east of Melbourne.
