Extek Silver Film Duplicators Models 3100 & 3150

Extek offers two free standing, high production roll-to-roll silver film duplicators. Model 3100 is for 16mm and 35mm film; the Model 3150 handles 16mm through 105mm film. Both employ Extek’s patented vacuum registration method to insure high quality copies free from optical distortions and film slippage. The duplicators have proven themselves in extensive use in microfilm centers throughout the world. Design simplicity and quality manufacturing account for the excellent reliability and performance by users.

The Model 3100 and 3150 are free standing units. Casters are mounted for mobility and ease of maintenance. Both have two storage drawers, one of which is lighttight for storing unexposed film with a large storage space below.

Optional features and accessories extend the utility of the basic units. These include a variety of loop modules, a counter, a sequential density programmer, and different spindle sizes. A table top mounting unit is available. All models can be configured to operate from foreign power sources.
