Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the production of a security document in addition to a security document comprising at least one security cambric (15) and at least one transponder unit (21) which is fully encompassed by laminated layers (22,23) forming a laminated layer sheath.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the production of a book cover insert (11) and to a method for the production of a book-type security document (30) and also to a book cover insert and a book-type security document, in which at least one data carrier (22) that can be operated contactlessly is provided in a book cover insert (11). (In this respect FIG.

Abstract: An apparatus for evaluating distinguishing authenticity features comprising diffraction elements on a document which is illuminated by an illumination source. The distinguishing authenticity element which is to be examined, diffracts the beam of the illuminating source and projects it onto an evaluating unit in the device. In order to be independent of the nature and location of the diffraction pattern, the diffraction pattern derived from the document to be examined is projected onto a screen and the image of the pattern recorded and evaluated by a camera (matrix or cells).

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the production of multi-layer security products and to a security product produced in accordance with the process. The process is distinguished by the fact that the various layers of the security product are produced substantially separately from one another as rolled materials and are provided with security features, and the individual rolled webs are led together and joined to one another in a common processing process. The security products produced in this way are laser-active and can therefore be personalized by means of a laser.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process and an apparatus for producing a laminate, comprising at least one polymer film with information and at least one substrate, for further processing for forgery-proof documents, in which, in the first processing station (31), a supporting film (23) is delaminated on a first side of the polymer film (17), after which a substrate (18) is laminated on by an adhesive and subsequently exposed to a crosslinking-active radiation, and in which a laminate (44) led out from the first processing station (31) is fed to a second processing station (51), and the supporting film (23) is delaminated on a second side of the laminate (44), after which a substrate (19) is laminated on by an adhesive and subsequently exposed to a crosslinking-active radiation.
