Abstract: The present invention relates to a linear personalization machine comprising a transfer system (3) for portable objects (4), incorporating an integrated circuit, characterized in that it comprises a personalization elevator (20) translated vertically and sequentially on a guide support (70) by driving end positioning means (29, 73, 28, 75, 72), said elevator (20) being made up of a parallelepiped plate (23) fitted wits a plurality of connection devices whether or not mixed type (22i, 22n) connecting to the integrated circuit of portable objects (4) that are brought in sequential manner in front of an incoming/outgoing station or the transfer line.

Abstract: This invention relates to a plastic substrate production process, the production device for such a substrate, and the use of the process for the production of integrated circuit boards. The plastic substrate production process is characterized in that it comprises the following steps: unwinding and straightening of a continuous strip of plastic which is slightly larger in dimension than one of the dimensions of the board; printing, at at least one printing station, of a series of printing patterns and of printed markings; driving of the strip at a regulated printing speed; detection of the difference in speed; cutting by a press of the strip at positions defined by the printed markings; and regulation of the printing speed as a function of the difference between the printing speed and the driving speed.
