More Information
Summary:A method is provided for continuously and automatically producing contactless or regular smart cards, such as identity cards, passes and the like, bearing personalizing, and optionally non-personalizing, graphic matter, including text and, generally, identifying photographs. A base layer (11) comprising the electronic components (13, 14) is provided, is laminated to two intermediate layers (16, 17) to form a core, and the core is laminated to two cover sheets (18, 19). The card can be made directly in a continuous process, in which case the intermediate layers (16, 17) carry the previously printed, personalizing graphic matter; or a pouch can be made, in which core and cover sheets (18, 19) are connected along a side only, and be transformed into a card by transfer printing personalizing matter on the cover sheets (18, 19) and fully laminating them to the core. An apparatus for continuously and automatically carrying out the method is also provided. Smart cards having a longer life are thus obtained in a more productive and economical way.
