Product Summary
The Datacard® 450 card personalization system lets you produce high-quality, personalized cards—such as credit, debit, ATM and retail cards—in a fast, single-pass operation. It gives you the flexibility to start with embossing characters and then add other features such as color topping, encoded magnetic stripes, indent printing and personalized smart card chips—as you need them.
High-volume issuance in a desktop system
This rugged, reliably designed system personalizes up to 420 standard financial format (40 character embossed) cards per hour, so it offers the speed and productivity of Datacard's large, fully integrated card issuance systems; yet, it fits neatly on almost any desktop.
Easy to operate
Even first-time users will find the Datacard 450 extremely simple to operate. An easy-to-understand LCD panel provides operators with helpful prompts throughout the issuance process. Plus, the areas that operators access most — such as the card loading tray, output tray and topping foil cassette — are easily accessible. That means operators spend less time replenishing supplies and handling cards.
Add capabilities as your needs expand
As payment processing and data collection systems become more sophisticated, you will need additional technologies to stay competitive. The Datacard 450 offers a flexible, modular design that lets you start with basic embossing and then add new capabilities as you need them.
Magnetic stripe encoding
This module lets you encode high- or low-coercivity magnetic stripes on either side of a card.
Indent printing
For additional security you can add an indent printing module, which affords the flexibility to indent on the front or back of cards.
Smart card personalization
Smart cards are quickly becoming a popular payment and data collection alternative. The Datacard 450 allows you to make the transition easily by adding a smart card personalization module.
