Advantages

FLEXIBILITY: Print and encode almost any plastic card!

Quantum is designed to be customized on-site by the user according to the need of the moment. Its features can be scaled to support specific requirements and evolving needs.

Flexible printing Quantum prints text, pictures and barcodes, in monochrome or color, on cards with thicknesses from 0.50 to 1 mm (20 to 40 mil), single or dual sided. Flexible encoding Quantum is delivered with a magnetic stripe encoder, a smart contact station and a bracket to host a contactless antenna. You can combine up to three encoding technologies. And for further flexibility, you can directly assemble your own encoder, thanks to the easy-to-access connecting board

PRODUCTIVITY: 1000+ monochrome cards delivered per hour!

Quantum is divided into separate modules to speed up and manage different tasks (printing and encoding) simultaneously. Quantum guarantees a printing speed of at least 1000 cards per hour in monochrome (full card), and 150 cards per hour in color

New processes and a patented encoding module for maximized throughput Cards are preloaded to speed to the personalization process With 2 distinct modules, printing and encoding tasks are performed simultaneously The mag/smart encoding unit is reversible: the card is printed and encoded without having to be flipped over.

		Autonomy, fast operation and reduced downtimes High-capacity hoppers give a full autonomy of 500 cards Hoppers are detachable and interchangeable : you can swap them within seconds Add another hopper (available as an option) to preload cards and reduce downtimes to less than 1 minute! High-capacity ribbons (up to 3000 monochrome and 500 color printouts), and a user-oriented alert system, both prevent lengthy timeouts and disruptions in the printing process.

RELIABILITY: print top-quality cards without disruption.
