Abstract: A method for producing a carrier card with a removable integrated chip-module card(s), where the carrier card is in an ID-1 format and is made of a single-layer or multilayer paper, and where the individual layers have predetermined material properties, and are joined by a waterproof adhesive. The method includes producing a single-staged or multistaged cavity, shaping the removable integrated chip-module card(s) in a mini-SIM, micro-SIM, nano-SIM and/or embedded-SIM format with notched or through-notched features and/or webs between each removable integrated chip-module card(s) and the carrier card, and adhesive bonding of an integrated chip module into the cavity.

Abstract: Modular processing system (1) for processing personalization elements, in particular chip cards, smart cards and/or magnetic strip cards, comprising a large number of processing modules, wherein the processing modules each comprise at least one first and at least one second sub-module (3-7; 12-20) and are arranged in a linear manner one behind the other in such a way that in each case the first sub-module (3-7) as the process module is arranged in a processing area (10) above a common table top plane (21) of a system base frame (2) and the second sub-module (12-20) as the electronics and process component module is arranged in a control and evaluation area (11) below the table top plane (21).

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for the separation of plastic cards, especially chip cards, from a sheet or strip material, with an upper and lower cutting tool giving the cutting outline which are designed to cut into a corresponding upper and lower side of the sheet or strip material with the retention of a residual cross-piece, whereby at least two upper and at least two lower cutting tools arranged in each case next to each other are provided for the forcibly coupled separation of several plastic cards.
