Abstract: A method for separating blanks includes continuous conveying of a sheet metal strip in a transport direction to a laser cutting station, concurrent cutting of the sheet metal strip by at least one cutting laser, wherein a cut sheet metal strip is formed from successive sections of the same cutting geometry, transporting the cut sheet metal strip on a first conveyor belt in the transport direction, taking over the cut sheet metal strip from the first conveyor belt, transporting the cut sheet metal strip in the transport direction, separately ejecting the at least one residual blank of each section, transporting the at least one blank of each section into overlap with a second conveyor belt and ejecting the at least one blank from the suction conveyor, and transporting the blanks ejected one after the other from the suction conveyor horizontally in the transport direction to a collecting station.

Abstract: In a method for updating or installing a data storage medium application which can be executed on a secure data storage medium, the data storage medium is used in a telecommunications terminal. Updating data for the data storage medium application are first integrated into a terminal application certificate of a terminal application to be installed on the telecommunications terminal. Next the terminal application is installed in the telecommunications terminal and the data storage medium application in the data storage medium is configured according to the updating data. The terminal application certificate functions as a data container for the transparent updating data to be forwarded to the data storage medium. The updating data may relate to access rights of the terminal application to a data storage medium application already installed in the data storage medium or to a data storage medium application to be newly installed in the data storage medium.

Abstract: The invention provides a method for updating a data carrier inserted in a telecommunication end device with regard to a data-carrier application executable in the data carrier, comprising the steps of: making updating data available to a security application installed in the data carrier; updating the data carrier according to the updating data, the updating of the data carrier comprising the steps of: transferring at least a part of the updating data from the security application to a programming interface installed in the telecommunication end device and adapted for communication between the telecommunication end device and the data carrier; onward transferring the transferred updating data from the programming interface to a data-carrier management of the data carrier installed in the data carrier; updating the data carrier according to the onward transferred updating data.
