Intuitive touch screen interface
Magicard Helix DUO SMART is the
first ever desktop card printer to feature an interactive touch-screen
interface. Visual indicators show connectivity, temperature and how many
prints are remaining on all consumables. A preview screen during
printing shows the exact card being personalised and its progress
through the print cycle. The intuitive interface makes it easy to change
settings, with additional help provided through animated video
sequences.
The World’s first retransfer printer with built-in visual security
Helix
is the World’s first retransfer printer with built-in visual security.
Using an evolution of Magicard’s famous HoloKote® security feature,
Helix can apply a secure watermark to each card during the retransfer
process. This feature also exploits the wavelengths and lens effect of
the retransfer film to fluoresce under UV lighting conditions.

- 125 Full Colour Cards Per Hour
- 200 Card Input / 200 Card Output

High-volume best quality printing
The
Magicard Helix uses a retransfer printing process, where images are
first printed onto a thin film then heat transferred onto the card
surface. This produces our highest resolution photo quality image,
printed right over the edge of the card. By printing on to this
controlled substrate, print imperfections due to irregular card surfaces
or around embedded card chips are eliminated. Equipped with a high
grade processing unit, Helix is powered by Magicard’s most advanced and
durable print engine and features our highest capacity consumables (1000
prints) and hoppers (200 cards), making it ideal for high volume
localised or even centralised issuance.
Our most versatile card issuance printer
The
Magicard Helix prints litho-quality cards from a compact desktop
package. This versatility enables you to issue secure IDs in high volume
or in small volumes for replacement or additional credentials. Its
Custom HoloKote watermark feature provides an extra layer of visual
security without the need for an inline lamination unit and expensive
custom overlays with high MOQs. Single-sided Helix printers can be
upgraded to double-sided capability with a simple electronic upgrade
key.
Trusted electronic security
The Magicard Helix can be
equipped with a range of card encoding devices to write secure
electronic data to cards at the point of issuance. Smart card encoding
options include contact chip, MIFARE, DESFire and iClass. Specialist
high-security encoders, such as EMV accredited devices, can also be
fitted for the in-line personalisation of payment cards. The Helix can
also be supplied with a magnetic stripe encoder built-in.
Customisable stealth security
A
special dye sublimation Ultra Violet (UV) ribbon can be used with the
Helix for the printing of invisible photographs, logos, text or symbols
when issuing high security cards. The UV ink is not detectable to the
naked eye, but is only visible with the use of a UV light source. This
special YMCK-UV ribbon offers an affordable yet still highly secure
feature to decrease susceptibility to counterfeiting.
