Lamination Plates

Our lamination plates are expertly crafted to deliver precision and durability during passport and identity card production. With exceptional heat and pressure distribution, they ensure flawless lamination results, making them ideal for creating secure and reliable ID cards and passport data pages.

With broad range of integrated secure elements such as MLI/CLI, raised or inlaying textures or various optically variable elements, as well as functional additions such as e.g. technical coatings or thickness compensation systems for the production of datapages, Our lamination plates are an efficient means to increase document security.

Description

MLI/ CLI – highly precise lenticular lenses as fine as 60µm are manufactured to extreme accuracy to create a personalized flip image that contains variable information.  

Raised / Inlaying textures – intricate design elements that create an image integrated into the overall card design. Clever details and high resolution plate making further contribute not only to aesthetics but also the document security.

Microtext – fine lettering with font sizes as small as 100µm, barely readable to the eye. Precise manufacturing is crucial to ensure every single letter is properly formed and free of even the smallest defect.  

Latent Image – When looked at directly, latent images are almost invisible. Tilting the document in different directions or waving it around will reveal up to three monochrome visual features alternately. The image views are generated by the special layout and overlay of very fine, parallel line grids and special shapes directly on the card’s surface. It’s only when the light hits it at an angle that these generate glossy and shadowy areas that produce the image.  

VTT Iconic – In plain sight it is fully invisible, yet when inspected against a single source as simple as the LED on your phone it creates an image easy to recognize but impossible to copy. The image creation is done fully in house and can create a variety of images and effects such as dynamic movement.  

VTT holoPHOTIC – When the card’s viewed from different angles, different colour iridescent areas appear on the surface of the card, which interact to show the visual feature in its entirety  .

Modifying the card surface with nanotechnology produces hologram-like reflections with no extra substrates or steps required. 

VTT MDI – Tilting the document in different directions or waving it around will reveal different effects and types of motion. To achieve this feature, diverse shapes of lens fields can be created to suit preferences that have different angles. Several visual features can be revealed for each field. With appropriately matched underprinting, highly complex impressions can be generated. 

Functional coatings- We can provide lamination plates with adjusted surface characteristics such as e.g. ultra high gloss, anti-adhesive properties or prolonged lifetime. Our team of experts will discuss your individual challenges and build a specific solution to suit your requirements.  

Raised dams for passport datapage – One of the key issues of producing a plastic datapage for passports is the solution for the hinge so the sewing area of that datapage: flexible, but durable with no additional process.  

> Lamination plates with raised dams form a thin and flat hinge area to allow easy lamination of plastic sheets with hinges made of fabric, polyurethane or others. 

> Anti adhesive coatings allow a flexible selection of materials for the hinge. 

> Top protection from forgery is provided cost efficiently by using our lamination plates with extra security features such as MLI/CLI lenses, micro lettering, latent images, braille, matt and glossy finishes.
