Muehlbauer Exhibits the Scope 5400 Card Personalization System in EMV Configuration
Muehlbauer, a leading manufacturer of turnkey automation solutions for smart card and smart label production, exhibits its advanced, high speed card personalization system at Cartes & IT Security 2004. The Scope 5400, a fully automatic smart card personalization system, is ideally suited for users preferring decentralized production of ID, EMV and GSM cards.
The Scope 5400 is a compact manufacturing system, freely configurable according to customer requirements and highly flexible due to its modular structure. The system features a central user terminal with graphical user interface and reduced card transport distance to the handling stations. The system, which personalizes ID-1 format cards, can process virtually any type of material: PVC, PC, ABS, as well as other materials upon request.
The automatic card transport system of Muehlbauer's Scope 5400 is designed to simplify the card handling operation, which is fast and effective, thus allowing to cut down manufacturing time. Moreover, gentle card handling by proven Muehlbauer devices guarantees the highest card quality and the least defects.
The Scope 5400 can be fitted with 4 to 20 chip encoding stations, an arbitrary amount of laser modules with CO2 or diode grayscale lasers of different power ratings, several types of inkjet printing modules, magstripe encoding stations, embossing and thermal printing modules. Designed with performance and process demands in mind, the Scope 5400 is highly customizable, and new modules can even be added at the customer's site. The new pneumatic input and output stacker systems handle up to 500 cards each in Muehlbauer standard magazines. A throughput of up to 1500 uph can be achieved by handling chip encoding times of up to 45 sec. The excellent reliability of the Scope 5400 guarantees yields in the order of 99.7%.
