Identity data and a portrait marked directly on a plastic card with the IK-SERIES high-energy hybrid laser.
NWS Laser / APPLICATION08
This application covers marking identity data and a portrait on a plastic card. The visual combines the card’s required information and the cardholder’s image, with readability optimized for the medium and card format.
Marking is performed with the IK-SERIES high-energy hybrid laser. Portrait definition, data sharpness and surface appearance must be evaluated on the actual cards used. A test on the real plastic is required to qualify settings, achieved contrast and readability under the intended conditions.

DATA AND PORTRAIT TO QUALIFY
A readable card,
marking to validate.
Test on the actual plastic
The card surface can affect contrast and marking appearance. IK-SERIES laser parameters must be qualified on the actual medium, considering its surface condition and finish.
Check readability
Readability of the data and portrait must be verified on marked cards under the intended observation conditions. This check confirms the result before further deployment.
APPLICATION STUDY
Start from your card,
not a theoretical setting.
Provide the actual plastic card, the identity data to mark, the expected portrait and the reading conditions. The NWS Laser team will prepare a test tailored to your application.
