HID® ELEMENT™ LE Industrial ID and Financial Card Personalization

Desktop-based, yet heavy-duty, the HID ELEMENT Laser Engraver System is purpose-built for the industrial speed and output requirements of large government ID card programs, financial institutions, enterprise organizations and service bureaus. HID ELEMENT offers highly configurable functionality, scalable throughput and an array of encoding options to meet a broad range of high-volume ID and financial card personalization needs. 

Leveraging proven DPSS (diode-pumped solid-state) laser technology, unique identifying data, images and security features are permanently engraved into the card body — resulting in highly secure, durably personalized and tamper-resistant cards and IDs.

Beyond precision black marking for standard text, MRZ (Machine Readable Zone) text, barcodes and QR codes — HID ELEMENT LE boasts the ability to produce high-quality images in true grayscale. Because the system’s DPSS laser employs variable power to achieve multiple shades of gray, HID ELEMENT laser images are highly defined and of superior visual quality.

The HID ELEMENT Laser Engraver System also accommodates high-security feature applications such as CLI/MLI (Changeable/ Multiple Laser Image), sub-surface image, tactile surface relief and custom microtext.

HID ELEMENT LE also offers:

• Laser source options — The highly versatile HID ELEMENT Laser Engraving System provides two laser source options to meet your specific credential program requirements. Choose from the standard 3W DPSS laser to maximize cost benefit or the optional 8W DPSS laser to enable faster throughput.
• Multiple encoding options — Supports both HID-embedded encoders and third-party Smartware™ simultaneous contact and contactless encoding for financial cards, physical/logical access, cashless vending and more
• Scalable, high-capacity throughput — Easily scales production with up to four, 400-card capacity inputs/outputs for a total capacity of up to 1600 cards per unit — facilitating high-volume card throughput for continuous runs and maximum yields per shift
• Redundancy and risk management benefits — As a desktop-based system, multiple HID ELEMENT laser engraver units can be implemented to meet industrial volume needs while providing redundancy and risk management benefits

With its highly configurable functionality and scalable throughput — the HID ELEMENT Laser Engraver System is an ideal solution for superior-quality, high-volume, laser ID and financial card personalization.
