4. CARD ADHESIVENESS
The laminate adhesiveness to the card is evaluated as below. Always evaluate the adhesiveness when changing
conditional settings for transfer temperature.
(1) Patch film
Card folding test :
1) Fold the card equally into two and press hard at the folded line.
2) Unfold and fold along the folded line in the opposite side, and press hard at the folded line.
3) Flatten the card and check that the patch film does not lift at the folded line.
When folding is respected, a lift may occur at the center. When this happens, check that the patch is not easily
detachable (the patch breaks) at the starting point of the lifted section.
Peeling test :
For cards that do not bend easily such as IC cards, make a slit on the patch using the tip of a cutter, use that section
as a base point and perform the same check as the above folding test.
(2) Overlay film
Similar to the adhesiveness of the re-transfer film, check that peeling does not occur for adhesive tape.
When transfer energy is insufficient during overlay film transfer, the surface of the card becomes cloudy. Pay attention
to the finishing on the surface.
Important :
When performing duplex printing on the re-transfer printer or when using 1mil patch, set Bend Remedy to
OFF and the correction roller before using. When performing printer correction with a 1mil patch setting, a
stable result cannot be expected as the card is too hot. When Bend Remedy is changed to OFF but the
correction roller is not sufficiently cooled even in READY state, an unstable convex warping occurs when
1mil patch laminating is performed in this state. In that case, leave the printer for 1 hour after changing the
settings to cool the correction roller fully.
