Flexible Card Dispensing, Printing and Encoding Systems

SNROTEK provides custom card issuing solutions for self-service kiosks, automated card issuance and card personalization applications.

From a simple single-hopper card dispenser to a multi-hopper card issuing system, the configuration can be adapted according to your application workflow.

Depending on your project requirements, the system can combine card storage, dispensing, printing, encoding, reading/writing and card recycling in one integrated solution.

You define the card issuing workflow. We help configure the hardware solution.

Configure Your Card Issuing System

Different card issuing applications require different hardware configurations.

Your system can be configured with:

• Single, dual or multi-hopper card storage
• Automatic card dispensing
• Card reading and writing
• Magnetic stripe encoding
• Contact IC card processing
• Contactless RFID card processing
• Thermal transfer card printing
• Single-sided or optional dual-sided printing
• Card recycling
• Card status monitoring
• RS232 or USB communication

The final configuration depends on your card type, issuing process and system integration requirements.

Choose Your Hopper Configuration

Single Hopper

For applications that need to store and issue one type of card.

Suitable for membership cards, visitor cards, access control cards and other single-card applications.

Dual Hopper

For applications requiring two different card types or separate card sources.

The host system can select the required card according to the transaction or application logic.

→ Explore Dual Hopper Card Issuing Systems

Multi-Hopper

For projects requiring multiple card types or higher card storage capacity.

Multi-hopper systems can combine automatic card selection, dispensing, printing, encoding and recycling in one integrated solution.

Add the Functions Your Application Requires

Card Printing

Integrate thermal transfer card printing for personalized card issuance.

Depending on the configuration:

• Single-sided printing
• Optional dual-sided printing
• Images and graphics
• Text and characters
• Personalized card information

Card Encoding and Processing

Configure the required card technology:

• Magnetic stripe read/write
• Contact IC card processing
• Contactless RFID card read/write
• SAM card processing

Card Recycling

Add card recycling for:

• Rejected cards
• Uncollected cards
• Returned cards
• Automatic card recovery

Typical Card Issuing Workflow

Depending on your configuration, the system can perform a complete automated card issuance process:

Select Card → Dispense → Print → Encode → Verify → Issue

Not every project requires all functions. The hardware configuration can be selected around the actual workflow of your application.
