iLam™ is a novel method of internal lamination for the manufacture
of contactless chip products for electronic passports and
smart cards.
The contactless chip and antenna are embedded
in an elastomer core between two outside sheets such as passport
cover material, security paper, polycarbonate or PET.
The lamination takes place under high
temperature and pressure without the use of adhesive.
The central elastomer core is introduced
in a molten state, encapsulating both the chip and the aerial,
providing excellent protection against impact, flexing and
other external forces. |
