Kaiser Book Holder 44/51 studio

The Kaiser Book Holder 44/51 studio is a studio-grade copy stand for photographers, archivists and darkroom workers who need to digitise bound material or make contact prints. A rigid base plate with non-slip feet and a 6 mm glass pressure plate keep pages flat and perfectly still during exposure.

Glass pressure plate and foam shims

The foldable glass plate locks between 0 and 145 mm (5.7 in.) so you can work at a comfortable height while maintaining even pressure across the spread. Pre-formed foam elements measuring 28 x 18 cm (11 x 7.1 in.) compensate for the spine bulge of an open book, giving a flat, evenly illuminated surface for every shot.

Maximum book format 17.3 x 16.1 inches

Locking knobs and guide lugs adjust the holder to accept volumes up to 17.3 x 16.1 in. and 5.7 in. thick, which decides whether your largest ledgers or folios will fit. Buyers copying oversize atlases or newspapers larger than this format will need a different solution.

Questions about this item

Will the 6 mm glass pressure plate need replacement after heavy daily use?

The 6 mm thick glass plate is a solid component with no moving parts; under normal copying workloads it does not wear out and requires no scheduled replacement.

What limits the maximum book thickness I can copy in one session?

The glass pressure plate locks between 0 and 145 mm (5.7 in.) and the included foam elements compensate for spine height, so books thicker than 145 mm cannot be held flat.

Does the base plate get hot or draw noticeable power during all-day scanning?

The unit has no motor, heater or electronics; it generates no heat and consumes no power regardless of how long it stays on the copy stand.
