EQUIPMENT & READERS FOR MICROSTRUCTURES IN HOLOGRAMS & SECURITY LABELS

In the design of our hologram security labels, we work with microstructures in the nanometer range and integrate a wide variety of security features or hidden elements.

Special equipment & readers for microstructures in holograms & security labels with holograms are necessary to detect and read these structures. We have selected the following devices according to the best practicability and handiness and put them together for you.

THREAD COUNTER / LUPE 30X with LED & UV

This handy thread counter is ideal for quick inspection of holographic optical security features, the details in the arrangement of the exposure cells, as well as for viewing microlettering up to a size of approx. 50µ and for checking UV features.

MULTI CLR READING DEVICE

The reader makes the control of holograms an objective procedure and eliminates possible misjudgments. This hidden feature verification reader is also very easy and convenient to use.

With this device, multi-level CLR images (CLR Multi) can be read out and visualized. The asymmetric microrelief of such elements must be produced with an accuracy of 20 nanometers. Such security features cannot be counterfeited with conventional optical technologies.

TALKING PEN / AUDIO AUTHENTICATION

The Audio Authentication Pen - also called Talking Pen - can be used to read hidden audio messages from the hologram. VIDEO - HIDDEN AUDIO CODE

The code embedded in the microstructures in the hologram is recognized by the optical sensor in the pen and the corresponding voice message is played back.
The security feature only works in combination with an individual hologram label and the reader specially programmed for this purpose. No other devices can be used. This makes the feature very effective in its use as a tamper-evident device.
