Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for producing a data carrier, wherein a substrate is provided with at least one security element.
  • the invention also relates to a data carrier with a substrate, which is provided on at least one side with a security element and labeled, for example, with a laser.
  • a photo can be substantially protected against counterfeiting attempts by extending guilloche lines into such a photograph.
  • Such lines or similar security elements should be printed comparatively tight in terms of security against counterfeiting.
  • the disadvantage here that through structures and in particular Guilloche lines the identification and verification of the person on a photo thus secured can be complicated.
  • such lines or other security elements may interfere with portraits and / or be regarded as a cultural offense.
  • Transparent kinegrams are also known for the protection of personalized elements on ID cards.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a method of the type mentioned and a data carrier, which avoid the disadvantages mentioned.
  • the problem is solved according to claim 1.
  • laser-active ink is used for the printing of the security element and this is at least partially converted with the laser.
  • Such a conversion makes it possible, for example, in the area of a photograph, to convert the security element, for example in the region of the face, in such a way that it is not or hardly visible in the usual way of viewing and at least not disturbing.
  • the ink is converted to a silver pigment. This is barely visible in ordinary view, especially in the lighter areas of a face.
  • the printing ink has a black content which is metered so that the printing ink is converted by the laser substantially without disturbing combustion.
  • a black content which is metered so that the printing ink is converted by the laser substantially without disturbing combustion.
  • the printing ink is converted into a silver-gray pigment.
  • a silver-gray pigment in particular lines can be produced that are problem-free in terms of aesthetics.
  • lines are printed that are converted in the area of a photo. In principle, however, such lines can also be printed or converted in a text or in the range of numbers.
  • the ink is an offset printing ink.
  • This can be a bright color as well as a gray.
  • Preferably bright shades are used, for example, light gray shades. It consists according to a ⁇ development of the invention from about three parts process yellow, about four parts process black and about 200 parts of transparent white.
  • the method is suitable for the production of all viewable documents that can be personalized with a laser.
  • the document may be a map or a page of a booklet, for example a so-called datapage.
  • the inventive data carrier has a substrate that is provided on at least one side with a security element that is printed and that is visible differently depending on the viewing angle.
  • the data carrier is printed with a printing ink having a black content of less than 5% by weight, preferably less than 3% by weight.
  • the black ingredient is 1-3 wt%.
  • the black component is formed in particular by soot particles. It has been found that with a comparatively small proportion of soot particles in the printing ink, no disturbing burns and bubbles form in the laser personalization. In particular, this can be achieved by converting the printing ink into a silver-gray pigment. The conversion is controllable. It has also surprisingly been found that this conversion effect is clearly visible, especially in dark lasered areas. As a result, the angle of incidence on visibility has a significant impact.
  • the data carrier according to the invention can therefore contain, for example, a photograph which does not contain aesthetically disturbing guilloche lines, which are conspicuous only in the case of inclined viewing and are easily recognizable to the person skilled in the art and with appropriate training. A forgery can be readily recognized by the skilled person immediately.
  • Figure 1 is a partial view of a data carrier according to the invention.
  • Figure 2 is a partial view of the inclined data carrier.
  • FIG. 1 shows a section of a data carrier 1 which is here personalized with a photo 2, a text 4 and numbers 5, for example an identification number.
  • the substrate 6 is usually made of plastic, for example polycarbonate or PVC and may be single or multi-layered. The upper side shown may be coated with a varnish or the like.
  • the photo, the text 4 and the numbers 5 are engraved in a conventional manner with a laser.
  • the data carrier 1 is also provided with a security element 7 which is printed and, for example, forms a guilloche pattern of several comparatively fine wavy lines 8.
  • the security element 7 is produced for example with offset inks in the corresponding printing process.
  • the security element 7 extends into the area of the photo and / or the area of the text 4 and / or into the area of the numbers 5.
  • the printing ink for producing the security element 7 is preferably but not exclusively an offset printing ink that is laser-active. In particular, it has a comparatively small proportion of black in the form of soot particles. This black content is preferably less than about 10% by weight, preferably less than 5% by weight and preferably less than 3% by weight, based on the total printing ink. Preferably, the black content is 1 to 3 Gw.%.
  • a suitable printing ink is preferably an offset printing ink. It can be applied to the substrate 6 in the usual way in the offset printing process.
  • This printing ink has a black content, this black content preferably containing less than 30% by weight of carbon black.
  • a suitable mixing ratio for such an ink consists of three parts of Process Yellow, four parts of Process Black, and 200 parts of Transparent White. Of course, other colors are also possible here.
  • the security element 7 is formed in the converted area so that it is visible differently depending on the viewing angle.
  • the security element 7 with respect to the photo 2 or the portrait is not or at least hardly disturbing.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé pour produire un support de données (1), consistant à imprimer un substrat (6) à l'aide d'une encre d'impression, et à le personnaliser au moyen d'un laser. L'encre d'impression est activée par le laser, et est au moins partiellement transformée lors de la personnalisation, de sorte qu'un pigment gris argenté soit formé, ce pigment gris argenté étant parfaitement visible lorsque le substrat (6) est incliné. L'encre d'imprimerie présente une teneur relativement faible en noir de carbone qui est transformé sous l'action du laser, sensiblement sans combustion perturbatrice, ni formation de bulles.
