Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for producing a data carrier, in particular a value document, such as a banknote, ID card and the like, with a substrate which has at least one paper layer and which is covered on both sides in each case over the entire surface by a polymeric cover layer.
  • Data carriers such as security, value and identity documents, but also other valuables, are provided with security features for security purposes, which permit verification of the authenticity of the data carrier and at the same time serve as protection against unauthorized reproduction.
  • value documents in particular banknotes
  • a substrate material of paper or polymer irrespective of the substrate used, is that, in particular, value documents with high circulation are exposed to considerable wear and contamination, so that the circulation times of these value documents are low.
  • paper substrates become relatively quickly soiled and lobed by moisture absorption, i. the typical sound and the typical grip of this substrate are largely lost.
  • substrates made of a polymer material show a very low resistance to tearing, which is why tears must be used to replace damaged substrates.
  • the circulation resistance of documents of value made of pure paper or polymer substrates can therefore sometimes be relatively low.
  • data carriers having a substrate which has at least one paper layer and which is covered on both sides by a polymeric cover layer under certain climatic conditions can have a higher resistance to circulation than data carriers made of paper or polymer.
  • DE 10 2005 011 612 A1 discloses a data carrier with an optically variable structure, which has an embossing structure and a coating contrasting with the surface of the data carrier, wherein the embossing structure and the coating are combined so that at least parts of the coating are completely visible when viewed vertically, but hidden by oblique viewing.
  • Object of the present invention is to provide an improved manufacturing method of the type mentioned, and thereby to further improve the data carriers in terms of their security against imitation and their circulation resistance and at the same time to obtain as important as possible for the evaluation of the authenticity of banknotes properties as completely as possible.
  • a method for producing a data carrier comprises the method steps according to claim 1.
  • substantially congruent embossed structures means that an embossed structure is disposed in the substrate from above it, i. congruent embossed structure is covered in the polymeric cover layer.
  • Coincident embossed structures in the substrate and the polymeric cover layer result from the inventive simultaneous action of an embossing tool on the polymeric cover layer and the substrate arranged thereunder.
  • the action of the embossing tool on the polymeric cover layer and the substrate takes place at the same time, i. in a process step.
  • the embossed structures according to the invention are thus present as tactile detectable embossed structures in the substrate and the polymeric cover layer arranged above it.
  • a data carrier having such embossing structures according to the invention may also have embossed structures which are present only in the substrate or in the polymeric cover layer.
  • the relief height of 60 ⁇ m to 300 ⁇ m provided for the tactile embossable embossed structures according to the invention is to be understood as the height of the embossing structures present in the polymeric cover layer and substrate relative to the surface of the unembossed polymeric cover layer and the unembossed substrate, as described below with reference to the figures will be explained in more detail.
  • the embossed structures according to the invention with a relief height of up to 300 ⁇ m can be perceived very well by the user of the data carrier in a haptic manner, so that the data carrier can be clearly checked for authenticity. By the invention, therefore, the imitation security of a data carrier is further increased. Furthermore, the inventors have found that the embossed structures introduced into the data carriers produced according to the invention with the substrate and the two-sided polymeric cover layer have a higher circulation resistance than embossed structures which are incorporated in a pure paper or polymer substrate. This surprising finding will be explained in more detail below in the text and is economically of great advantage, since data carriers with greater circulation resistance must be replaced less frequently and thus costs for the circulation of these data carriers can be reduced.
  • the increased circulation resistance of the embossing structures of the invention to embossed structures in paper or polymer data carriers is currently explained by the fact that the special combination of polymeric cover layer and paper-containing substrate causes too little or no damage to the data carrier when the embossing tool acts leads.
  • the polymeric cover layer on the surface of the paper-containing substrate therefore appears to protect the substrate from injury, in particular substrate tearing, when the embossing tool acts.
  • the embedding structures according to the invention can be introduced by means of an embossing tool with production processes known for such data carriers, at least in the technical field of value documents, whereby the invention is also economically very interesting in this respect.
  • the data carrier with a substrate which has at least one paper layer
  • it may in the simplest case be a substrate which is formed from exactly one paper layer.
  • the paper layer, taken in isolation, can have a certain amount of polymeric fibers without the need to assess the authenticity of banknotes typical characteristics such as the typical sound and feel of such a paper substrate are lost.
  • the relief height of the embossed structures in the substrate and the polymeric cover layer is 80 ⁇ m to 280 ⁇ m in total.
  • the fact that the preferred area of the relief height of the embossed structures is narrower than the claimed area is due to the fact that the preferred area ensures on the one hand a particularly good haptic perception by the user, and on the other hand the engraving depths corresponding to this relief height can be generated relatively well in the embossing tool.
  • embossing tools can be used to produce the preferred relief heights in the substrate and polymeric cover layer for a large number of produced data carriers and also have a long life.
  • the preferred relief heights have a good security against counterfeiting and can furthermore be manufactured reliably and cost-effectively from a technical and economic point of view.
  • the total relief height of the embossed structures in the substrate and the polymeric cover layer is 65% to 85% of the engraving depth of the engravings present in the embossing tool for producing the embossing patterns. It is understood that the ratio of the relief height of the embossed structure in the substrate and the polymeric cover layer to the engraving depth in the embossing tool depends on the material composition and the thickness of the inserted data carrier to be embossed and the maximum technical depth of the engraving in the embossing tool.
  • the embossing structures are embossed structures produced in the gravure printing process, in particular intaglio printing processes.
  • the gravure printing process in particular intaglio printing process, in which the substrate is subjected to even higher pressures during the embossing process than in the gravure printing process, makes it possible to reliably introduce the embossed structures according to the invention with defined embossing height into the data carrier.
  • the gravure printing method or the intaglio printing method offers the advantage that, at the same time as the embossing structures, an imprint arranged congruently with the embossing structures can be applied to the data carrier.
  • those engravings which are later provided for producing the embossed patterns with imprint filled with an ink, which later forms the imprint.
  • the embossing tool acts on the polymeric cover layer and the substrate, on the one hand the embossed structure according to the invention is introduced into the polymeric cover layer and substrate, and on the other hand the embossed structure is provided with a congruent imprint.
  • intaglio printing it is then spoken of a color-guiding intaglio printing.
  • the polymeric cover layer which is in each case arranged over the full area on the two surfaces of the substrate, preferably consists of PET, PP, PE, LDPE, LLDPE, PA, PC, BOPP, PVC or natural biopolymers.
  • Such polymeric materials have a particularly long life, but are not as well embossable as e.g. Paper or materials that have a high paper content.
  • the data carrier combines the long service life of the polymeric cover layers and the substrate protected by these cover layers and the good embossability of the substrate with at least one paper layer.
  • the polymeric cover layer advantageously has a thickness of from 0.8 ⁇ m to 20 ⁇ m, preferably from 2 ⁇ m to 12 ⁇ m, and very particularly preferably from 2 ⁇ m to 8 ⁇ m.
  • Cover layers with such small thicknesses already noticeably improve the circulation stability of the data carrier, but at the same time also permit embossing structures with a very large embossing height due to the substrate used according to the invention having at least one paper layer.
  • the characteristic properties of the substrate which are particularly important for the evaluation of the authenticity of banknotes, remain essentially completely preserved. That is, the typical sound of the paper-containing substrate or the grip of such substrates is only slightly affected by the thin polymer cover layers.
  • the embossed structures according to the invention can be arranged in a transparent or translucent area of the data carrier, so that the tactile embossable embossed structures are arranged in a viewing area of the data carrier and the counterfeit security of the data carrier is further increased ,
  • the polymeric cover layer has a transparent, translucent or opaque coating, in particular a paint receiving layer.
  • the polymeric cover layer disposed on the substrate is provided with a coating, in particular a paint receiving layer, in order to facilitate the application of further layers or security elements, such as imprints, foils, holograms, etc.
  • the color of the substrate can be adjusted as desired, since the ink-accepting layer is in front of the polymeric cover layer and the substrate from the view of the viewer.
  • the polymeric cover layer is usually provided with such a transparent, translucent or opaque coating before the embossing structures according to the invention are produced.
  • a transparent coating ideally has a transmittance of 100%, although this value is generally not exactly reached in practice.
  • a transparent coating accordingly has a transmittance of 90% to 100%.
  • a transmittance is the transmittance of light, in particular for light in the visible wavelength range between 400 nm and 800 nm, ie for light, as is usually perceived by the viewer.
  • the transmittance is the quotient, the radiant power transmitted through the material and the radiant power radiated onto the layer.
  • the transmittance may also relate only to a single wavelength or to other wavelength ranges, for example to the near UV or IR wavelength range following the visible spectral range.
  • a translucent or semitransparent layer has a transmittance of from 10% to 90% and particularly preferably from 20% to 80%.
  • an opaque coating has a transmittance of 0%, although this value is generally not exactly achieved in practice.
  • the embossing structures are at least partially arranged so that they on the disk arranged elements, in particular security elements, such as. Imprints, foils, holograms, to some extent protect against wear, especially abrasion.
  • security elements such as. Imprints, foils, holograms
  • embossing structures with a sufficiently high relief height can protect other elements, which in particular have a lower relief height, from wear, in particular abrasion.
  • the circulation resistance of a data carrier can be further increased with such abrasion resistant embossing patterns.
  • embossed structures can advantageously prevent z.
  • a freshly applied to the polymeric cover layer of a data carrier prepared according to the invention is transferred to the printing medium lying directly above this imprint in the production.
  • embossed structures can serve as a kind of spacer between adjacent banknotes, and prevent the transfer of the not yet dried ink from one to the other data carrier during the production. The resulting reduced scrap leads to lower production costs than is the case for data carriers without such spacers.
  • embossing structures described above can also improve the flatness of a stack formed from a multiplicity of identical data carriers, in particular banknotes, and otherwise prevent slippage of the data carriers in the stack (anti-slip protection). It is understood that the improvement of the flatness or slip resistance is also given in stacked sheets, each with a variety still be separated to disk.
  • the embossed structures in the data carrier are produced in a preferred process variant by a gravure printing process, in particular intaglio printing process.
  • an imprint arranged congruently with the embossed structures is produced simultaneously with the embossed structures.
  • the printing arranged congruently with the embossing structures is produced by means of a gravure printing plate, the engravings corresponding to the embossing structures being filled with ink to form the imprint and then the intaglio printing plate being filled with filled engravings at high pressure onto the data carrier.
  • the polymeric cover layer in particular before production of the embossed structure, be provided with a transparent, translucent or opaque coating, in particular ink-accepting layer.
  • embossed structures are at least partially produced in such a way that they comprise elements arranged on the data carrier, in particular security elements, such as e.g. Imprints, foils, holograms, to some extent protect against wear, especially abrasion.
  • security elements such as e.g. Imprints, foils, holograms
  • An embossing tool for producing a data carrier with the method according to the invention comprises an embossing tool surface which has an engraving in which the ratio of the width to the depth of the engraving (aspect ratio) is between 1: 1 and 1: 3.
  • the inventors have found that embossing tools having embossed structures with an aspect ratio of 1: 1 to 1: 3, are well suited for the production of tactile structures on the disk, and at the same time the embossing tools by the engraving in the embossing tool surface is not yet in the strength are impaired. The risk of cracks in the embossing tool is thus reliably prevented or reduced to a minimum.
  • Fig. 1 shows in plan a schematic representation of the banknote 1, with a plurality of tactile detectable embossed structures 2,3 and 4, which are arranged substantially congruent in the substrate and the polymeric cover layer. Furthermore, the banknote 1 still has authenticity features, which are, for example, the imprint marked with reference numeral 5, which does not necessarily have to be tactile detectable.

  • a data carrier produced according to the invention can also be significantly thinner or thicker compared with the abovementioned thickness of approximately 125 .mu.m to 135 .mu.m and accordingly have a thickness of approximately 80 .mu.m to 170 .mu.m.
  • the thickness of the data carrier may even be less than 80 ⁇ m and more than 170 ⁇ m.
  • the data carrier 1 further comprises the embossed structures 2, 3 and 4 according to the invention, which are arranged substantially congruently in the substrate 7 and the polymeric cover layer 9a.
  • the embossed structures 2, 3 and 4 are produced with an embossing tool 10, which has engravings 11, 12 corresponding to the embossed structures (see Fig. 3 ).
  • the embossing tool 10, which is a gravure printing plate, is subjected to very high pressure on the polymeric cover layer 9a and the underlying substrate 7 pressed so that by deformation of the substrate 7 and the polymeric cover layer 9a after removal of the embossing tool the haptically detectable relief structures 2, 3 and 4 remain in the disk.
