Description

Established, versatile retransfer card printer Matica’s XID8300 is a versatile, durable and reliable printer with an established and renowned print engine. Its retransfer printing technology offers consistent, crystal clear printing right over the edge of the card. This indirect printing method also enables the XID8300 to print on variable surfaces found on contactless/contact chip cards and on multiple materials including PC (polycarbonate), PET and ABS cards, in addition to PVC.

Matica’s XID8300 is available as a single or dual-sided printer with a bend remedy option to ensure card flatness. Its durability backed with a 3 year warranty and its high capacity ribbons (1000 images) mean it is well suited to mid to high volume card issuance applications, including access control cards or student ID cards.

DescriptionHigh quality direct to card printing designed to fit any secure card issuance application Matica’s MC310 is unrivaled in its versatility. It can be upgraded from single to dual-sided and is available with multiple secure card encoding options. Suitable for secure ID issuance, the MC310 has an extensive ChromXpert consumable program that includes secure Ultra Violet (UV) and pearlescent (Sc) ribbon options. The MC310 integrates seamlessly with both lamination and laser options making it ideal for secure ID projects and high volume issuance. Its excellent build quality and robust metal chassis are backed by an industry-leading four year warranty. The MC310’s durability, versatility, and extensive feature set make it ideal for the most demanding, high-volume desktop applications such as access control, government ID, and healthcare identity cards.  

DescriptionIncreasing card longevity and security The MC-L2 laminator module is the ideal solution to enhance the durability and the security of cards printed on the MC310 direct to card printer or XID-M retransfer printer series. Easy to install and operate, the MC-L2 works inline to laminate cards at exceptional speeds, laminating both sides of the card in less than 20 seconds thanks to the simultaneous dual-side lamination process. The MC-L2 can be easily connected to the MC310 using a connection plinth, which also serves as a useful lockable storage unit for cards and cleaning kits. The MC-L2 is available in three different configurations to suit any card lamination application: • Single-sided lower cassette only • Single-sided upper cassette only • Dual-sided with both lower and upper cassettes.  

DescriptionIncrease card durability and security with Matica’s Inline Laminating Modules (ILM) Lamination can be used as a premium security measure to upgrade the level of forgery protection whilst also increasing the lifetime of the cards. The ILM has been configured to be significantly faster and more cost-effective, due to its modern industrial design. It works with both clear laminates (for durability) as well as holographic laminates (for security) for maximum issuance flexibility. The ILM-LS model is for high speed single-sided lamination, while the robust ILM-DS takes care of dual-sided lamination requirements. The ILM is the fastest laminating module available on the market, with a speed of 16 seconds per card for single-sided and 30 seconds per card for dual-sided lamination. Enhancing card security Cards are laminated with the ILM by using a heat-sealing film. This film can contain holographic and other Visual Security Elements (VSEs) for enhanced protection. Matica offers a range of standard holographic designs in both patch laminate and continuous film formats. For the ultimate security protection, organisations can opt for a customized holographic laminate with VSEs that are unique to them – this approach is often adopted for government secure documents such as driving licenses and national ID cards.

• Increasing card durability and security
• National ID cards
• Driving licenses

Optional upgrades

• Dual-sided lamination

Optimize issuance costs and card life Another important reason to laminate pre-personalized cards is to increase the durability and extend the life of the card, thanks to the enhanced mechanical and UV resistance of the lamination material. A card laminated with a 1.0 mil (35 micron) patch can have a lifecycle of up to 10 years – a timeframe often mandated for government/citizen ID schemes. The ILM can be seamlessly combined with Matica’s XID 8300 and XID 8600 retransfer printers to create a seamless one card personalization solution.The module’s compact size and the availability of single or dual-sided models offers you additional flexibility to match your budget and requirements.
