Encoding systems for cards and tickets
Our encoding systems personalize magnets, RFID tags, and chips reliably and efficiently.
What are encoding systems?
Encoding systems are complete systems for personalizing cards and tickets. They combine transport, encoding, optional printing, verification, and output in a modular design. The goal is reproducible quality at high cycle rates with quick integration into existing lines.
Typical areas of application
- Card production and personalization
- Ticketing and access to public transport, ski resorts, and events
- Retail with loyalty and gift cards
- OEM integration into existing production systems
Which media are supported?
- ID-1 cards in standard format
- Continuous and pre-punched tickets
- Magnet, RFID, and chip depending on configuration
How do you encode maps?
The process includes data transfer, coding, verification, and documentation.
Select data source (CSV or database) and start job
Separation and transport of the card or ticket web
Encoding depending on technology
Magnet according to ISO 7811 with HICO or LOCO
Contactless RFID according to common standards
Chip contact or contactless
Inline verification through read checks and image control
Optional printing or laser marking
Output control, destacking, logging
Components of a coding system
Transport route with separator and destacker
Encoding modules for magnets, RFID, and chips
Print modules for variable data
Laser marking for permanent marking
Flipper for double-sided machining
Scanner for reading and verification
