Will Bluetooth® technology and its ability to aid in identification, such as the use of smartphone authentication diminish the importance of the traditional RFID badge? We don’t think so, in fact the Applications Are Endless.

Real-life applications include:

• Sensors that can tell you when a motor needs maintenance in manufacturing.
• A temperature sensor can report that the temperature needs to be adjusted for comfort in healthcare.
• A humidity sensor can report high humidity in a paper mill to avoid the rolls of paper getting stuck together on the production line.
• The accelerometer sensors in your cellphone can determine if you are walking or running and in which direction you are heading.

All of these applications require Bluetooth technology to continue to run smoothly. And when you pair the Bluetooth technology with RFID, you add to the security of the experience. Enter the concept of multi-factor authentication.

Multi-factor Authentication

In today’s day and age, there’s no such thing as being too secure. Passwords are hacked, badges are stolen, systems are overturned. The future of authentication will focus on multi-factor authentication where RFID technology works in tandem with Bluetooth wireless technology to ensure a more secure experience.

For example, an employee badge fit with an RFID chip ensures authentication occurs at a desktop, human machine interface (HMI), multifunction printer – the list goes on and on. While this is a great step toward security, imagine how much further you could get if your company pairs that RFID technology with a Bluetooth sensor that tracks, say a cellphone, to that authentication event. Now, the RFID badge must be presented, and the individuals’ cellphone must also be within a set perimeter of the authentication.

IMPROVED YOUR BRAND IMAGE

All-In-One Solution for multiple business models

Developed by Evolis, the CLM (Card Lamination Module) is associated with the Evolis Primacy printer and is an all-in-one system for printing, encoding, and laminating cards that need to be secure and/or protected.

Easy to use

The CLM module is easy to use and can be used in a standalone mode or associated with a Primacy card printer.

Protect your cards

The CLM is the ideal module to laminate ID cards. The cards made can be used for up to 10 years.

Plug & play consumables

The installation of the ribbons is really intuitive and all laminates are automatically recognized by the CLM and Primacy :

• ribbons are made with colors mandrels
• a sound is clearly audible when you plug the ribbon
• laminates are automatically recognized thanks to RFID chip

Wide choice of laminates

Evolis has a wide range of patches and laminates, with or without holograms. All of our patches and varnishes are high capacity and offer great system autonomy:

• Single-sided lamination
• Dual-sided lamination
• Lamination with generic or specific holograms
• Lamination with cut out for:
  • smart contact card
  • magnetic stripe card

Standalone mode optional

• In a standalone mode, the CLM operates with card-to-card insertion and can secure and/or protect cards previously printed with any printing system.
• The standalone mode can be easily implemented through a firmware upgrade

The CLM is a versatile offer to target applications that require longer lasting ID badges including:

• Corporate employee badges,
• Government ID and Driver’s licenses,
• State Issued Resident cards,
• Military or Police ID badges,
• Airport access control badges,
• Hospital Employee ID cards,
• Contractor ID badges.

We are pleased to announce the launch of the Rio Pro 360, Magicard’s latest innovation for ID issuance, now available in July 2018.

The Rio Pro 360 is an evolution of Magicard’s well-established Rio Pro platform. The new ID card printer features faster print speed, increased capacity and improved print quality. The 360 also has the all new ‘LYNK’ on-board intelligence – an embedded Linux-based CPU – that enables seamless communication and the secure processing of ID data.

The Rio Pro 360 is Magicard’s fastest ID printer to date. The entirely new electronics and software platform has enabled significant performance improvements. From the moment you hit print, the 360 instantaneously gets to work. Full color cards with HoloKote® can now print in 18 seconds click-to-card.

The LYNK on-board CPU has a wider color spectrum to choose from. This means the Rio Pro 360 can create even more vibrant and color rich prints – which on an ID card means a truer representation of the subject. LYNK recognizes USB & Ethernet and can easily be integrated with most third-party applications locally or in the cloud. WiFi connectivity will be available.

Like its predecessor, the Rio Pro 360 can print an anti-fraud customized secure watermark on every card. LYNK now enables the secure online delivery of bespoke HoloKote® watermarks to the printer.  Where previously only one custom HoloKote design was available per printer, now users can store up to ten.

The LYNK onboard CPU is an industry first and we’re excited to see how this helps create more customized secure ID solutions, as it effectively means the printer has a brain on-board. The 360, with its encryption capabilities and secure watermark feature, will help achieve the mission of enhancing trust in identity worldwide.
