LCP9660
Laser engraving and color printing combined for a secure ID issuance system
Ideal for decentralized issuance of secure citizen IDs, including driver’s licenses
The LCP9660 combines high resolution retransfer printing with secure laser engraving inline for exceptional security and forgery protection. It delivers highly secure, full color, personalized government issued cards from distributed locations, quickly and easily in a single pass.
The LCP9660 features two integrated modules:
• The MC660 high resolution, color retransfer printer.
• The MC-LX, Matica’s third generation desktop laser module.
It produces a personalized card that features an outstanding 600dpi color image combined with the enhanced security options enabled by laser engraving information into the body of the card.
For the ultimate security and durability of printed/engraved cards, a third module – the MC-L laminator – can also be added inline after the laser engraving process to add holographic or durability enhanced over-laminates to the card surface.
Advanced laser engraving system
The MC-LX has a sophisticated card transport system, TRIPODE® which can tilt the card in all directions so that the laser beam reaches all areas. This also ensures frictionless transportation during production. The integrated flip-over and vertical adjustment for “out of focus” effects enables the seamless activation of security options, including visual security elements such as CLI and MLI.
MSPI™: Matica Secure Protected Image
The LCP9660 system enables the use of Matica’s proprietary technology, MSPI, in a decentralized issuance environment. MSPI adds an extra security feature when using polycarbonate cards by extracting the black (K) from the color image and adding it as a laser engraved secondary process in perfect register.
