Abstract
In order to fix the electronic module (14) in the cavity (12, 14, 16) of a card body (10), a fixing ring (20) is placed on a shoulder (18) in the cavity. The ring (20) comprises a fibrous matrix structure impregnated with a thermally-activatable adhesive material. Pressure is exerted on the electronic module (14), thereby crushing the ring (20) and positioning the module. Heat is applied to the fixing element in order to activate and polymerize the adhesive material contained therein.
