Definitions
- the present invention relates to a valuable or security product, in particular an identity card, and a method for producing it.
- valuable or security documents can be, for example, a personal document, a check card, a non-personalized authorization card, such as a ticket or a means of payment, or a value or security element intended for product security.
- Valuable or security products serve to verify the identity of a person or thing or a claim, for example to pay a sum of money or to issue a product or provide a service. To this end, it must be ensured that the product cannot be imitated, counterfeited or falsified or only with considerable effort.
- the product therefore contains security features that are extremely difficult or even practically impossible to imitate.
- the product such as banknotes, is made of a material that is not readily available.
- security features can be formed by special colors, for example luminescent or optically variable colors, optical elements such as holograms, tilt images, kinegrams, lens or prism arrays, as well as guilloches, mottled fibers, security threads and others.
- the WO 2017/031414 A1 and the WO 2010/040972 A1 reveal security documents with tactile security features.
- the EP 2 918 424 A1 discloses a security document with a portrait image whose tactile security feature covers the portrait image.
- the EP 2 325 022 A1 reveals a security document in which the portrait image is covered by slanted lines.
- the valuable or security product preferably an identity card
- the valuable or security product comprises a carrier material and a portrait image attached thereto or formed from one or more printed layers.
- a tactile security feature formed by a laser and comprising at least one straight line is applied or introduced onto or into at least one of the print layers of the portrait image or into at least one protective layer covering the print layers.
- This configuration makes it possible to introduce or attach a so-called "Level 1" security feature to the portrait or facial image of the valuable or security product, which can be easily checked by a person without technical aids.
- the valuable or security product can be a valuable or security document or a security element, ie an element that is connected, for example, to an object to be protected against imitation, counterfeiting or falsification, for example a sticker, label or the like.
- a passport for example, can be used as a valuable or security product Identity card, a driving license or other ID card or an access control card, a vehicle registration document, a vehicle registration document, a visa, a check, other means of payment, in particular a banknote, a check, a bank card, a credit or cash payment card, a customer card , a health card, a chip card, a company ID card, a proof of authorization, a membership card or another ID document, but it should be ensured that it has a portrait photo or one is attached to it.
- the valuable or security product is in ID 1, ID 2, ID 3 or in some other format, for example in booklet form, such as a passport-like item.
- the valuable or security product is generally a laminate made up of several document layers that are precisely connected to one another under the influence of heat and increased pressure. These products should meet standardized requirements, for example ISO 10373, ISO/IEC 7810, ISO 14443.
- the product layers preferably consist of a carrier material that is suitable for lamination.
- the valuable or security product can preferably be formed from a polymer which is selected from a group comprising polycarbonate (PC), in particular bisphenol A polycarbonate or a polycarbonate formed with a geminal disubstituted bis (hydroxyphenyl) cycloalkane, polyethylene terephthalate (PET), their derivatives, such as glycol-modified PET (PETG), polyethylene naphthalate (PEN), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyvinyl butyral (PVB), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polyimide (PI), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), polystyrene (PS) , polyvinylphenol (PVP), polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), thermoplastic elastomers (TPE), in particular thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer (ABS) and their
- the product can also be made from several of these materials. It preferably consists of PC, PVC and PET.
- the polymers can be either filled or unfilled. In the latter case, they are preferably transparent or translucent. If the polymers are filled, they are opaque.
- the above Information refers to both films to be bonded together and liquid formulations that are applied to a preliminary product, such as a protective or top coat.
- the product is preferably made from three to twelve, preferably four to ten, films.
- the films can also carry printed layers. A laminate formed in this way can then be covered on one or both sides with the protective or top coat or with a film.
- the film can in particular be a volume hologram, a film with a surface hologram (for example a kinegraphic element) or a scratch protection film.
- Overlay layers formed in this way protect a security feature arranged underneath and/or give the document the required abrasion resistance.
- pattern As far as the term pattern is mentioned in the description and in the claims of the present application, it is to be understood as a somehow designed distribution of visible and/or elements conveying a tactile impression on one or more surfaces. These elements preferably result in a self-contained representation, for example a line, a set of lines, a line pattern, an image element, or an alphanumeric character, a symbol, a coat of arms, a line, a formula or the like.
- the straight lines can extend from portrait edge to portrait edge, but also beyond.
- the mutual distance or the predefined positions of the intersection points of the straight lines can represent a further security feature that increases the security against counterfeiting of the valuable or security product.
- counterfeiting can be prevented by a predetermined position of the lines on the portrait or by a predetermined position of the lines with respect to the edge of the portrait.
- the lines form a line grid.
- This line grid is formed from a plurality of straight lines that cross each other.
- the position of the intersection points or crossing points in relation to at least one of the portrait edges can also be predetermined.
- the line grid can be formed with lines aligned at an angle with respect to a portrait image edge.
- the line grid can also be aligned from 15 degrees to 75 degrees with respect to the edge of the portrait. Preferably it is tilted at 45 degrees relative to the portrait edges.
- energy input from the laser into the at least one printing layer is dimensioned such that color pigments of the at least one printing layer evaporate or are removed locally, in particular without smoke.
- the valuable or security product is formed with at least one, preferably several, cavities in the printing layer with higher energy input by the laser.
- a possible laser for example, is a CO 2 laser, although excimer lasers and fiber lasers can also be used. These lasers are characterized by their positive property of being operated in a very wide range of possible powers, so that a desired energy input into the irradiated material can be specified or freely selected. Using a pulsed laser mode, high but short-term bursts of energy can be introduced into the material so that it is removed without burning and leaving behind traces of smoke.
- an energy input of the laser into the at least one protective layer covering the printing layer to be dimensioned such that the protective layer is evaporated or removed locally, in particular without smoke.
- the valuable or security product is formed with at least one, preferably with several cavities in the protective layer.
- an energy input from the laser is dimensioned such that during step C) color pigments of the at least one printing layer evaporate or are removed locally, in particular without smoke.
- an energy input from the laser is dimensioned such that during step D) the protective layer is evaporated or removed locally, in particular without smoke.
- a method not covered by the invention provides that an energy input from the laser is dimensioned such that the at least one print layer is locally foamed during step C).
- a method not covered by the invention provides that an energy input from the laser is dimensioned such that during step D) the at least one protective layer covering the printing layer is locally foamed.
- the lasered structures become more clearly visible as lines or areas that appear white due to the large number of reflections and refractions in the individual bubbles.
- the valuable or security document 100 can be a personal document, such as a passport, an identity card, an access card or the like, a check card or a banknote or another document. All of the following examples are described using such a map as representative of other types of documents.
- the valuable or security product 100 is shown in the form of an identity card, which has been assembled, for example, as a laminate from several internal polymer layers 140.
- the polymer layers can consist of PC and/or PET.
- the individual layers can be unfilled or filled with fillers. In the latter case they are opaque, otherwise transparent.
- the layers can preferably be connected to one another in such a way that they form a monolithic block which is virtually impossible to split.
- the outer layers 150 of the card may be formed as a final plastic protective film or may consist of a protective varnish applied to the card after lamination.
- the plastic protective film or protective varnish is transparent so that the information underneath is visible from the outside.
- one or more print layers 140a, for example of a portrait image 110, remain visible is preferably arranged immediately next to or behind the outer layer 150.
- the valuable or security product 100 has a top 101 and a bottom 102.
- On the top 101 there is the facial or portrait image 110 of the card holder as well as data fields, namely, for example, a first data field 120 and a second data field 130 with card and holder data in plain text.
- the data in the first and second data fields 120, 130 are produced by printing layers that lie on an outer layer of the document but immediately below the outer protective layer 150.
- a security feature 500 is assigned to the portrait image 110 to secure it, which in the present case forms a pattern in the form of a line grid comprising a set of straight lines.
- the lines of the line grid run inclined at an angle of 45 degrees with respect to the portrait image edges of the portrait image 110. Other angles of inclination for the straight lines of the grid are possible.
- the straight lines also extend beyond the portrait image edges of the portrait image 110 and form projections with a preferably predetermined length. The length of these projections can be determined depending on other parameters, for example parameters or data from the data fields 120, 130.
- this security feature 500 is applied or introduced into at least one of the print layers 140a of the portrait image 110 by means of a laser. It can be done before laminating the in Figure 2 The composite shown can be attached or, if the laser is focused appropriately, only subsequently. Alternatively or additionally, in a further variant, there is the possibility that the security feature 500 is incorporated into the protective layer 150 covering the printing layers 140a.
- the security feature 500 produced by means of the laser is only formed in the print layer 140a.
- the power of the laser was dimensioned such that the material of the printing layer 140a was removed in a targeted manner and a suitable cavity 502, for example in the form of a line mentioned at the beginning or several such cavities in the form of a pattern, in particular in the form of a grid, is created.
- the security feature 500 produced by means of the laser is only formed on the printing layer 140a, in particular foamed, which creates a raised area 504.
- the material of the printing layer 140a is preferably formed from a thermoplastic.
- the security feature 500 produced by means of the laser is only formed in the protective layer 150.
- the power of the laser was dimensioned such that a targeted removal of the material of the protective layer 150 took place and a suitable cavity 502, for example in the form of a line mentioned at the beginning, or several such cavities in the form of a pattern, in particular in the form of a grid, is created.
- the security feature 500 produced by means of the laser is only formed on the protective layer 150, in particular foamed, which creates a raised area 504.
- the material of the protective layer 150 is preferably also made of a thermoplastic. When foaming occurs, small bubbles form on the surface of the plastics in which the light is reflected multiple times, making them appear white. This can be used to create patterns that appear white on a transparent plastic, in particular lines or grids.
- Level 1 With a fine, but clearly visible, parallel grid of lines in or above the portrait, even the inexperienced viewer will notice even small irregularities, be it in the form of changes in the line coverage, the straight and unbroken course and the same lengths. This is a so-called “Level 1” feature.
- FIG 3e The security feature 500 produced by means of the laser is shown, which is formed from cavities 502 and raised areas 504 present in the printing layer 140a and in the protective layer 150.
- FIG 3f Another security feature 500 is shown, which is formed from cavities 502 and raised areas 504 present in the printing layer 140a and in the protective layer 150.

Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Wert- oder Sicherheitsprodukt, insbesondere eine Identitätskarte, sowie ein Verfahren zu dessen Herstellung. Derartige Wert- oder Sicherheitsdokumente können beispielsweise ein Personaldokument, eine Scheckkarte, ein nicht personalisierter Berechtigungsausweis, wie eine Fahrkarte oder ein Zahlungsmittel, oder ein für die Produktsicherung bestimmtes Wert- oder Sicherheitselement, sein.The present invention relates to a valuable or security product, in particular an identity card, and a method for producing it. Such valuable or security documents can be, for example, a personal document, a check card, a non-personalized authorization card, such as a ticket or a means of payment, or a value or security element intended for product security.
Wert- oder Sicherheitsprodukte, insbesondere Wert- oder Sicherheitsdokumente, dienen dazu, die Identität einer Person oder Sache oder einen Anspruch, beispielsweise auf Zahlung eines Geldbetrages oder auf Herausgabe eines Produktes oder Erbringung einer Dienstleistung, zu verifizieren. Hierzu ist sicherzustellen, dass das Produkt nicht oder nur mit erheblichem Aufwand imitiert, gefälscht oder verfälscht werden kann. Das Produkt enthält daher Sicherheitsmerkmale, deren Nachahmung äußerst schwierig oder sogar praktisch unmöglich ist. Beispielsweise besteht das Produkt, wie Banknoten, aus einem nicht ohne weiteres verfügbaren Material. Zusätzlich oder alternativ können Sicherheitsmerkmale durch spezielle Farben, beispielsweise lumineszierende oder optisch variable Farben, optische Elemente, wie Hologramme, Kippbilder, Kinegramme, Linsen- oder Prismenarrays, ferner Guillochen, Melierfasern, Sicherheitsfäden und andere gebildet sein.Valuable or security products, in particular valuable or security documents, serve to verify the identity of a person or thing or a claim, for example to pay a sum of money or to issue a product or provide a service. To this end, it must be ensured that the product cannot be imitated, counterfeited or falsified or only with considerable effort. The product therefore contains security features that are extremely difficult or even practically impossible to imitate. For example, the product, such as banknotes, is made of a material that is not readily available. Additionally or alternatively, security features can be formed by special colors, for example luminescent or optically variable colors, optical elements such as holograms, tilt images, kinegrams, lens or prism arrays, as well as guilloches, mottled fibers, security threads and others.
Obwohl viele zur Anwendung kommende Sicherheitsmerkmale existieren, sind noch immer viele Fälschungen von Wert- oder Sicherheitsprodukten erfolgreich; insbesondere solche, bei denen ein auf dem Wert- oder Sicherheitsprodukt angebrachtes Portrait nachträglich gefälscht oder verfälscht worden ist. Dies geschieht durch ein feines, teilweises oder vollständiges Übermalen des vorhandenen Portraits, wobei nachträglich eine dünne Folie aufgezogen wird, um die Fälschung für das menschliche Auge - zumindest weitgehend - unsichtbar zu machen.Although there are many security features used, many counterfeits of valuable or security products are still successful; especially those in which a portrait affixed to the valuable or security product has subsequently been forged or falsified. This is done by finely, partially or completely painting over the existing portrait, with a thin film subsequently being applied to make the fake - at least largely - invisible to the human eye.
Die
Es ist daher die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, ein fälschungssicheres Wert- oder Sicherheitsprodukt sowie ein Verfahren zu dessen Herstellung anzugeben.It is therefore the object of the present invention to provide a forgery-proof valuable or security product and a method for producing it.
Die vorstehenden Aufgaben werden mit einem Wert- oder Sicherheitsprodukt mit dem Merkmalsbestand des Anspruchs 1 sowie einem Verfahren mit dem Merkmalsbestand des Anspruchs 6 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen mit zweckmäßigen Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen angegeben.The above tasks are achieved with a valuable or security product with the features of claim 1 and a method with the features of claim 6. Advantageous embodiments with useful developments of the invention are specified in the dependent claims.
Insbesondere umfasst das Wert- oder Sicherheitsprodukt, vorzugsweise eine Identitätskarte, ein Trägermaterial und ein darauf angebrachtes, bzw. aus einer oder aus mehreren Druckschichten gebildetes, Portraitbild.

Vorzugsweise liegt das Wert- oder Sicherheitsprodukt in ID 1-, ID 2-, ID 3- oder in irgendeinem anderen Format vor, beispielsweise in Heftform, wie bei einem passähnlichen Gegenstand. Das Wert- oder Sicherheitsprodukt ist im Allgemeinen ein Laminat aus mehreren Dokumentenlagen, die passgenau unter Wärmeeinwirkung und unter erhöhtem Druck flächig miteinander verbunden sind. Diese Produkte sollen den normierten Anforderungen genügen, beispielsweise ISO 10373, ISO/IEC 7810, ISO 14443.Preferably, the valuable or security product is in ID 1, ID 2, ID 3 or in some other format, for example in booklet form, such as a passport-like item. The valuable or security product is generally a laminate made up of several document layers that are precisely connected to one another under the influence of heat and increased pressure. These products should meet standardized requirements, for example ISO 10373, ISO/IEC 7810, ISO 14443.
Vorzugsweise bestehen die Produktlagen aus einem Trägermaterial, das sich für eine Lamination eignet. Das Wert- oder Sicherheitsprodukt kann aber vorzugsweise aus einem Polymer gebildet sein, das ausgewählt ist aus einer Gruppe, umfassend Polycarbonat (PC), insbesondere Bisphenol A-Polycarbonat oder ein Polycarbonat, gebildet mit einem geminal disubstituierten Bis-(hydroxyphenyl)-cycloalkan, Polyethylenterephthalat (PET), deren Derivate, wie Glykol-modifiziertes PET (PETG), Polyethylennaphthalat (PEN), Polyvinylchlorid (PVC), Polyvinylbutyral (PVB), Polymethylmethacrylat (PMMA), Polyimid (PI), Polyvinylalkohol (PVA), Polystyrol (PS), Polyvinylphenol (PVP), Polypropylen (PP), Polyethylen (PE), thermoplastische Elastomere (TPE), insbesondere thermoplastisches Polyurethan (TPU), Acrylnitril-Butadien-Styrol-Copolymer (ABS) sowie deren Derivate, und/oder Papier und/oder Pappe und/oder Glas und/oder Metall und/oder Keramik. Außerdem kann das Produkt auch aus mehreren dieser Materialien hergestellt sein. Bevorzugt besteht es aus PC, PVC und PET. Die Polymere können entweder gefüllt oder ungefüllt vorliegen. Im letzteren Falle sind sie vorzugsweise transparent oder transluzent. Falls die Polymere gefüllt sind, sind sie opak. Die vorstehenden Angaben beziehen sich sowohl auf miteinander zu verbindende Folien als auch auf Flüssigformulierungen, die auf ein Vorprodukt aufgebracht werden, wie einen Schutz- oder Decklack. Bevorzugt wird das Produkt aus drei bis zwölf, vorzugsweise vier bis zehn Folien, hergestellt. Die Folien können ferner Druckschichten tragen. Ein solcherart gebildetes Laminat kann abschließend ein- oder beidseitig mit dem Schutz- oder Decklack oder mit einer Folie überzogen werden. Die Folie kann insbesondere ein Volumenhologramm, eine Folie mit einem Oberflächenhologramm (beispielsweise einem kinegraphischen Element) oder eine Kratzschutzfolie sein. Derart gebildete Overlaylagen schützen ein darunter angeordnetes Sicherheitsmerkmal und/oder verleihen dem Dokument die erforderliche Abriebfestigkeit.The product layers preferably consist of a carrier material that is suitable for lamination. However, the valuable or security product can preferably be formed from a polymer which is selected from a group comprising polycarbonate (PC), in particular bisphenol A polycarbonate or a polycarbonate formed with a geminal disubstituted bis (hydroxyphenyl) cycloalkane, polyethylene terephthalate (PET), their derivatives, such as glycol-modified PET (PETG), polyethylene naphthalate (PEN), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyvinyl butyral (PVB), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polyimide (PI), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), polystyrene (PS) , polyvinylphenol (PVP), polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), thermoplastic elastomers (TPE), in particular thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer (ABS) and their derivatives, and/or paper and/or Cardboard and/or glass and/or metal and/or ceramic. In addition, the product can also be made from several of these materials. It preferably consists of PC, PVC and PET. The polymers can be either filled or unfilled. In the latter case, they are preferably transparent or translucent. If the polymers are filled, they are opaque. The above Information refers to both films to be bonded together and liquid formulations that are applied to a preliminary product, such as a protective or top coat. The product is preferably made from three to twelve, preferably four to ten, films. The films can also carry printed layers. A laminate formed in this way can then be covered on one or both sides with the protective or top coat or with a film. The film can in particular be a volume hologram, a film with a surface hologram (for example a kinegraphic element) or a scratch protection film. Overlay layers formed in this way protect a security feature arranged underneath and/or give the document the required abrasion resistance.
Soweit in der Beschreibung und in den Ansprüchen der vorliegenden Anmeldung der Begriff Muster' genannt wird, ist darunter eine irgendwie gestaltete Verteilung von sichtbaren und/oder einen taktilen Eindruck vermittelnden Elementen auf einer oder mehreren Oberflächen, zu verstehen. Vorzugsweise ergeben diese Elemente eine in sich geschlossene Darstellung, beispielsweise eine Linie, eine Linienschar, ein Linienmuster, ein Bildelement, oder ein alphanumerisches Zeichen, ein Symbol, ein Wappen, eine Linie, eine Formel oder dergleichen.As far as the term pattern is mentioned in the description and in the claims of the present application, it is to be understood as a somehow designed distribution of visible and/or elements conveying a tactile impression on one or more surfaces. These elements preferably result in a self-contained representation, for example a line, a set of lines, a line pattern, an image element, or an alphanumeric character, a symbol, a coat of arms, a line, a formula or the like.
Bei der Ausgestaltung des Wert- oder Sicherheitsprodukt mit einer Schaar an das taktile Sicherheitsmerkmal bildenden geraden Linien zur Absicherung des Portraitbilds ist die Möglichkeit gegeben, dass sich die geraden Linien von Portraitkante zu Portraitkante, aber auch darüber hinaus erstrecken können. Der gegenseitige Abstand oder auch die vordefinierten Positionen der Schnittpunkte der geraden Linien können dabei ein weiteres Sicherheitsmerkmal darstellen, welches die Fälschungssicherheit des Wert- oder Sicherheitsprodukts erhöht.When designing the value or security product with a set of straight lines forming the tactile security feature to secure the portrait image, it is possible that the straight lines can extend from portrait edge to portrait edge, but also beyond. The mutual distance or the predefined positions of the intersection points of the straight lines can represent a further security feature that increases the security against counterfeiting of the valuable or security product.
Ferner kann über eine vorgegebene Lage der Linien am Portrait oder über eine vorgegebene Lage der Linien bezüglich der Portraitkante Fälschungen vorgebeugt werden. In diesem Zusammenhang ist es daher möglich, dass wenigstens zwei der Linien parallel zueinander verlaufen unter einem Winkel von 15 Grad bis 75 Grad bezüglich einer Portraitbildkante. Eine Neigung von 45 Grad bezüglich der Portraitkante ist bevorzugt.Furthermore, counterfeiting can be prevented by a predetermined position of the lines on the portrait or by a predetermined position of the lines with respect to the edge of the portrait. In this context, it is therefore possible for at least two of the lines to run parallel to one another at an angle of 15 degrees to 75 degrees with respect to a portrait image edge. A tilt of 45 degrees with respect to the edge of the portrait is preferred.
Es ist von Vorteil, wenn die Linien ein Liniengitter ausbilden. Dieses Liniengitter ist dabei aus einer Mehrzahl an geraden Linien gebildet, die sich gegenseitig kreuzen. Die Lage der Schnittpunkte bzw. der Kreuzungspunkte in Relation zu mindestens einer der Portraitkanten kann ebenfalls vorgegebenen sein. Auch für das Liniengitter ist die Möglichkeit gegeben, dass es mit geneigt bezüglich einer Portraitbildkante ausgerichteten Linien gebildet ist. Hierbei kann das Liniengitter ebenfalls von 15 Grad bis 75 Grad bezüglich der Portraitkante ausgerichtet sein. Vorzugsweise ist es um 45 Grad bezüglich der Portraitkanten verkippt ausgerichtet.It is advantageous if the lines form a line grid. This line grid is formed from a plurality of straight lines that cross each other. The position of the intersection points or crossing points in relation to at least one of the portrait edges can also be predetermined. It is also possible for the line grid to be formed with lines aligned at an angle with respect to a portrait image edge. The line grid can also be aligned from 15 degrees to 75 degrees with respect to the edge of the portrait. Preferably it is tilted at 45 degrees relative to the portrait edges.
Ein Energieeintrag des Lasers in die mindestens eine Druckschicht ist erfindungsgemäß derart bemessen, dass Farbpigmente der mindestens einen Druckschicht lokal, insbesondere schmauchfrei, verdampfen oder abgetragen werden. Das Wert- oder Sicherheitsprodukt ist, bei höherem Energieeintrag durch den Laser, mit mindestens einer, vorzugsweise mit mehreren Kavitäten in der Druckschicht gebildet.According to the invention, energy input from the laser into the at least one printing layer is dimensioned such that color pigments of the at least one printing layer evaporate or are removed locally, in particular without smoke. The valuable or security product is formed with at least one, preferably several, cavities in the printing layer with higher energy input by the laser.
Als Laser kommt beispielsweise ein CO2-Laser in Betracht, wobei auch Excimerlaser und Faserlaser Einsatz finden können. Diese Laser zeichnen sich durch ihre positive Eigenschaft aus, in einem sehr breiten Bereich von möglichen Leistungen betrieben zu werden, so dass deshalb ein gewünschter Energieeintrag in das bestrahlte Material vorgebbar oder frei wählbar ist. Durch einen gepulsten Modus der Laser können hohe aber kurzzeitige Energieschübe in das Material eingebracht werden, so dass dieses abgetragen wird ohne zu verbrennen und damit Schmauchspuren zu hinterlassen.A possible laser, for example, is a CO 2 laser, although excimer lasers and fiber lasers can also be used. These lasers are characterized by their positive property of being operated in a very wide range of possible powers, so that a desired energy input into the irradiated material can be specified or freely selected. Using a pulsed laser mode, high but short-term bursts of energy can be introduced into the material so that it is removed without burning and leaving behind traces of smoke.
In diesem Zusammenhang ist es erfindungsgemäß alternativ oder ergänzend daher möglich, dass ein Energieeintrag des Lasers in die mindestens eine die Druckschicht bedeckende Schutzschicht derart bemessen ist, dass die Schutzschicht lokal, insbesondere schmauchfrei, verdampft oder abgetragen wird. Das Wert- oder Sicherheitsprodukt ist in einem solchen Fall mit mindestens einer, vorzugsweise mit mehreren Kavitäten in der Schutzschicht gebildet.In this context, it is alternatively or additionally possible according to the invention for an energy input of the laser into the at least one protective layer covering the printing layer to be dimensioned such that the protective layer is evaporated or removed locally, in particular without smoke. In such a case, the valuable or security product is formed with at least one, preferably with several cavities in the protective layer.
Durch das Verdampfen oder das Abtragen entstehen Kavitäten. Die Kavitäten können durch Löcher, Vertiefungen, Aushöhlungen, Kanäle, Poren, Aussparungen, Hohlräume und dergleichen gebildet sein. Die Kavitäten weisen erfindungsgemäß eine Größe im Mikrometerbereich auf, d.h. die lichte Weite / die Dicke der Kavitäten liegt im Bereich von 10 µm bis 500 µm, vorzugsweise im Bereich von 100 µm bis 300.. Die Tiefe der Kavitäten liegen dabei in einem Bereich von 1 µm bis 500 µm. Das Verfahren zur Herstellung eines Wert- oder Sicherheitsprodukts ist gekennzeichnet durch die Schritte:
- A) Bereitstellen eines Trägermaterials,
- B) Anbringen einer oder mehrere Druckschichten (140a) und Ausbildung eines Portraitbilds (110),
- C) Herausbilden eines Sicherheitsmerkmals (500) in zumindest eine der Druckschichten (140a) des Portraitbilds (110) mittels eines Lasers, und/oder
- D) Herausbilden eines Sicherheitsmerkmals (500) in zumindest eine die Druckschichten (140a) des Portraitbilds (110) bedeckende Schutzschicht (150) mittels des Lasers.
- A) providing a carrier material,
- B) applying one or more printing layers (140a) and forming a portrait image (110),
- C) forming a security feature (500) in at least one of the print layers (140a) of the portrait image (110) using a laser, and/or
- D) forming a security feature (500) in at least one protective layer (150) covering the print layers (140a) of the portrait image (110) using the laser.
Die in Zusammenhang mit dem Wert- oder Sicherheitsprodukt erwähnten Vorteile gelten auch für das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren.The advantages mentioned in connection with the valuable or security product also apply to the method according to the invention.
Ein Energieeintrag des Lasers wird erfindungsgemäß derart bemessen, dass während Schritt C) Farbpigmente der mindestens einen Druckschicht lokal, insbesondere schmauchfrei, verdampfen oder abgetragen werden.According to the invention, an energy input from the laser is dimensioned such that during step C) color pigments of the at least one printing layer evaporate or are removed locally, in particular without smoke.
Alternativ oder ergänzend ist es erfindungsgemäß sinnvoll, wenn ein Energieeintrag des Lasers derart bemessen wird, dass während Schritt D) die Schutzschicht lokal, insbesondere schmauchfrei, verdampft oder abgetragen wird.Alternatively or additionally, it makes sense according to the invention if an energy input from the laser is dimensioned such that during step D) the protective layer is evaporated or removed locally, in particular without smoke.
Ein nicht von der Erfindung erfasstes Verfahren sieht vor, dass ein Energieeintrag des Lasers derart bemessen wird, dass während Schritt C) die zumindest eine Druckschicht lokal geschäumt wird.A method not covered by the invention provides that an energy input from the laser is dimensioned such that the at least one print layer is locally foamed during step C).
Ein nicht von der Erfindung erfasstes Verfahren zeichnet sieht vor, dass ein Energieeintrag des Lasers derart bemessen wird, dass während Schritt D) die zumindest eine die Druckschicht bedeckende Schutzschicht lokal geschäumt wird. Dabei werden die gelaserten Strukturen durch die Vielzahl an Reflektionen Lichtbrechungen in den einzelnen Bläschen als weiß erscheinende Linien oder Flächen deutlicher sichtbar.A method not covered by the invention provides that an energy input from the laser is dimensioned such that during step D) the at least one protective layer covering the printing layer is locally foamed. The lasered structures become more clearly visible as lines or areas that appear white due to the large number of reflections and refractions in the individual bubbles.
