A unit for processing chip and/or magnetic stripe cards. The unit comprises a minimum of one card storage magazine to store cards to be processed, a minimum of one chip and/or magnetic stripe processing station to record data on the chip (semiconductor element) and/or the magnetic stripe of the card, and a minimum of one card body processing station to record visible, unmodifiable data on the card body. The unit further includes an optical identification station with an evaluation unit to verify accuracy and/or quality of the data recorded on the card body, with cards exhibiting incorrectly or defectively applied visible data being rejected as defective.

Unit for processing chip and/or magnetic stripe cards

A system for processing chip and/or magnetic stripe cards (K), comprising the following components: at least one card supply magazine for accommodating cards to be processed; two or more chip and/or magnetic stripe processing stations for applying data/information on the chip and/or the magnetic stripe of the cards (K); at least one card body processing station for applying unchangeable data/information on the card body; a card transport system which transports the cards from the card supply magazine(s) to the chip and/or magnetic stripe processing stations and subsequently to the card body processing stations; wherein the system includes a card transport plane (x, y) with a processing sequence axis (y) and an orthogonally extending processing parallelization axis (x) with processing stations of different processing types being arranged in a spaced relationship one behind the other along the processing sequence axis (y), wherein multiple of the processing stations of one processing type are arranged side by side along the processing parallelization axis (x) as a processing module.

System for processing chip and/or magnetic stripe cards

A system for processing chip and/or magnetic strip cards (K), comprising at least one card supply magazine for accommodating cards to be processed; at least a chip and/or magnetic stripe processing station for applying data/information on the chip and/or the magnetic stripe of the cards (I), with a certain chip and/or magnetic stripe processing time being associated with the station; at least one card body processing station for applying data/information on the card body, with a certain card body processing time being associated with the station; a card transport system which transports the cards from the card supply magazine to the chip and/or magnetic stripe processing station and subsequently to the card body processing stations and from these onwards, wherein the processing time of the at least one chip and/or magnetic stripe processing station differs from the processing time of the at least one card body processing station, and the card transport time from the card supply magazine to one of the processing stations as well as the card transport time from one of the processing stations to another of the processing stations is shorter than a processing time of the processing station with the longest processing time; wherein there are a first number of the processing stations with approximately the longest processing time, which first number is greater than the number of the processing stations with the shortest processing time.
