CARDS
PRINTING
Multiple means of protection, some of them from the security printing world, are used today to fight against counterfeiting , but the performance of these means is only effective if they are correctly implemented.
Consequently, card production processes must integrate Axode control and traceability tools, either directly on existing machines, or by means of the Axode CardTracker, a standalone machine dedicated to cards manufacturing control.
Cards printing includes information that requires a very high level of protection, either because it certifies the identity of a person ( identity cards, driving licenses, bank cards, access control, etc. . ), or because it constitutes a monetary value (prepaid cards, payment cards, gift cards, etc. )
Identification, quality, traceability
and production supervision
Axode's global security solution extends from mastery of the field and the industrial constraints of cards printers, to the traceability of their products . This solution is the only one capable of operating within a multi-function machine park, and concretely results in real-time camera inspection of all stages of production, in particular:
​
• Images: conformity and quality of printed images, colorimetry, color alignment
​
• Variable data: concordance between data, between images, sequence, completeness
​
• Cutting: centering, quality
​
• Affixing: position, presence and quality of the glue
​
• Invisible inks: presence, conformity, intensity, colorimetry, position ...
​
• Hologram: presence, position, quality of deposit, image centering ...
​
• Holographic tape: presence, position, quality and integrity
​
• Magnetic tape: presence, position, quality and integrity
• Scratch-off: presence, position, quality and integrity
​
• Codes : grading
​
• Numbering: readability check, sequence, database concordance
​
• Lamination: quality of the surface finish, position of the engravings, flatness, micro-text
​
• Selective varnish: presence, position, quality
​
• CLI: presence, position, quality of the lens
​
• OVI: presence, position, quality, colorimetry
​
• Transparent security window: presence, position, quality, transparency, alignment
​
• Embossing and braille: quality, position, readability
​
• RFID: i dentification, reading quality
• Contact smart chip: presence, position
​
• Traceability: integrity and completeness of production, production reports
