The patent is intended to facilitate card processing mechanisms that have separate return and primary card travel paths and enables a card to be relaunched in the primary path and moved through a card processing station for a second time.
Entrust Datacard vice president of bureau solutions Dan Good said: “For nearly 50 years, we’ve kept our finger on the pulse of innovation in the security and card personalisation space, continuously investing in new technologies that have allowed us to provide the most cutting edge solutions to our customers.
“We will continue to invest in and create solutions that not only meet our customers’ needs, but exceed their expectations.”
Secure ID and card personalisation solutions provider Datacard Group became Entrust Datacard following the purchase of identity-based security solutions provider Entrust. The business was first launched in 1969, and has obtained over 200 US patents and several patents in Europe and China since its inception.
