Abstract

A laser inscribing station controls the inscribing position (BP) of a laser beam in terms of two coordinates, one pair of feed and pressure rollers is disposed on both the infeed side and the outfeed side of the station. The credit card is positioned aligned in parallel lateral guide tracks, which are disposed in a turning mechanism together with a transfer conveyor, which displaces the credit card to such an extent that it is inserted in a first transfer position from the pair of infeed rollers into the guide tracks. In a second transfer position, the credit card is is held between the rollers pairs in such a manner that its entire surface is freely accessible for laser inscription. In a third transfer position, the card can be seized by the pair of outfeed rollers.
