Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a machine for applying cards or vouchers to backing sheets.
  • cards or vouchers which are generally laminated and have standardized shapes and dimensions, as a data medium, such as for example credit cards, loyalty cards for commercial organizations, ID cards or others.
  • Such cards contain data in the form of a magnetic band and/or a bar code and/or a chip and/or a laser band and/or readable characters and/or graphic images.
  • the organizations which issue such cards need to send them to users together with a backing sheet which bears the identification data of the card and/or the identification data of the user and any supplemental information, such as for example instructions for using the card, any codes for activating or using the card, terms and conditions of validity, or others.
  • the application of a card or voucher which has already been coded or customized to a respective backing sheet provides for the execution of several steps: - taking a single card at a time from a magazine of cards which have already been coded;

  • Known machines in fact generally process a single type of card, which in any case is already coded, and therefore do not allow to code the card and/or customize it.
  • Another disadvantage of known machines consists in that they are provided with lines for conveying the processed cards which block access to at least one of the two opposite faces of the card.
  • Another drawback of known machines consists in that they are provided with systems for taking the cards from the corresponding magazine or storage unit which also act on the recessed or relief portions of the cards, such as for example the identification number of the card, and may damage them.
