Company history and capacity

Avision was founded in April 1991 by a group of engineers in Taiwan. We design, manufacture and market a complete range of top quality, high performance scanners as well as key components for all-in-one products. We have secured our position as a leading supplier in the scanner industry through innovative product development, strategic partnerships and successful business models.
