Quality Certificates

Challenge

Security Foiling were tasked with providing a bespoke solution to place a hologram accurately onto a Quality Certificate. The Quality Certificate is for supporting credence for high value Diamond sales and had previously been counterfeited.

Solution

Security Foiling designed and manufactured two bespoke MicroPOISE Mk 2 machines with a vacuum feeding unit. This allowed the certificates to have the holograms applied with the following benefits:

• Extremely accurate hologram position
• High Volumes with up to 4, 500 hologram impressions per hour per machine
• Clear machine control and audit through Sentry
• Continuous production from the vacuum feeding unit
• PC interface allowed high control of machine operation

Result

The machines were delivered ahead of the customer’s expectations and the following quote is from the customer after their first production run: “The MicroPOISE Mk 2 systems with the Vacum feeding unit has provided a perfect solution for us giving secure application of the hologram onto our Diamond Certificates. The exact positioning of the hologram combined with the high volume capability of the machines is a real added value”
