Protect your cards up to 10 years

The CLM is the ideal module to laminate ID cards. The cards made can be used for up to 10 years1 and are extremely difficult to forge.

 

Two issuance modes to choose to laminate your cards

Associated with the Primacy card printer

Developed by Evolis, the CLM (Card Lamination Module) is associated with the Evolis Primacy printer and is an all-in-one system for printing, encoding, and laminating cards that need to be secure and/or protected.

In standalone mode

The CLM can also operate in standalone mode and with card-to-card insertion. You can secure and/or protect cards préviously printed in D2T2 with any printing system.

 

The CLM is a versatile offer to target applications like:

  • Secure employee badges,
  • Driver’s licenses,
  • Resident cards,
  • Military or police ID badges,
  • Airport access control badges,
  • Social security cards.

Easy to use

The CLM module is easy to use and can be used in a standalone mode or associated with a Primacy card printer.

 

The CLM also connects directly to a PC (in standalone mode) via an USB cable. The films are installed intuitively and all the laminates are automatically recognized by CLM and Primacy.

In a standalone mode

The CLM connects directly to a PC via an USB cable. It is automatically recognized and operated by the computer.

With a Primacy card printer

The CLM is connected to the Primacy printer through infrared, forming a single system. There is no need to replace your printer. It can easily be equipped with a lamination station2.

Plug & play consumables

The installation of the ribbons is really intuitive and all laminates are automatically recognized by the CLM and Primacy :

  • ribbons are made with colors mandrels
  • a sound is clearly audible when you plug the ribbon
  • laminates are automatically recognized thanks to RFID chip

Wide choice of laminates

Evolis has a wide range of patches and laminates, with or without holograms. All of our patches and varnishes are high capacity and offer great system autonomy:

  • Single-sided lamination
  • Dual-sided lamination
  • Lamination with generic or specific holograms
  • Lamination with cut out for:
    • smart contact card
    • magnetic stripe card

Our team can develop personalized laminates on demand and as part of a specific project.

 

Productivity assured

CLM and Primacy encode the cards (magnetic stripe, contact or contactless smart cards), print them in D2T2, and laminate them in single or double side in a single session.

The printing and lamination modules work in parallel and produce up to 215 printed and laminated single-sided cards or 110 double-sided cards per hour.


2 All Primacy printers with a serial number greater than 10000295187 can accomodate the CLM
