card. None of these operations require issuance of
additional commands.
The following describes a typical Max Secure
System operation:
A Clear Card feeds first. This card receives color im
-
aging associated with the YMC ribbon panels, and if
desired, also from a Kr panel. After imaging, the
Clear Card goes to the output of the Print Station.
A White Card feeds next. Any image placed on this
card normally depends on the availability of an un
-
used Kr ribbon panel. A YMCKr ribbon used to
place a black resin image on the Clear Card would
not have a Kr panel left for imaging on the White
Card without first skipping over a whole set of color
panels. For Kr on both cards, a YMCKrKr ribbon
should be used.
After receiving any images, the White Card also
travels to the output of the Print Station and comes
to rest on top of the Clear Card. As with a Max3000,
these cards go on to the Laminator. For three-layer
cards, a second Clear Card enters the card path.
This Clear Card first transitions in and out of a Card
Flip Station before going on to the Laminator
Module. This card flip serves to place the side of the
Clear Card with the bonding agent in contact with
the White Card.
Note that Max3300s have a lever for users to select
between two- and three-layer composites. Users
must also load cards having the related thickness.
The +LAYER command also exists for use in speci
-
fying the number of layers.
Card alignment occurs at the first station in the
Laminator and Die Cutter assembly. From there,
the cards get laminated and then trimmed to the
standard card size. A heat sink between the Lamina
-
tor and the Die Cutter reduces card temperatures
that became elevated during lamination. During
this transition, a speed setting for card cooling takes
effect.
Notably, only up-facing surfaces receive images.
After lamination, an inside surface has the image
placed on the Clear Card. Viewing from the back
