SKU: QTM3-KT002 Evolis QTM3-KT002 Quantum 2 Backup Pack

The new Quantum is a powerful system to personalize plastic cards in volume. It offers a centralized personalization process that matches the flexibility of a desktop printer with the power of an industrial machine. This system prints cards in dual-sided mode, in color or monochrome, and delivers more than 1,000 personalized cards per hour in monochrome, with high-definition text, logos, pictures and barcodes. This optimized throughput leverages two brand new detachable and interchangeable hoppers with a large capacity of 500 cards each (0.76 mm or 30 mil). Quantum comes with a detachable and reversible encoding unit that can combine the versatility of magnetic, smart contact and contactless encoders. With this exclusive feature, a card can be printed and encoded on the same side, without having to be flipped over. This speeds up the personalization. The separate encoding unit can be upgraded on-site with almost any smart chip encoder that simply needs to be connected to a dedicated electronic panel.

• Versatility and modularity Quantum is a modular system and can be customized on-site by its user according to the need of the moment. Its features can be scaled to support specific and evolving requirements.
• High performance With Quantum, performance is the key word! The machine has different modules to speed up the personalization process and manage the printing and encoding processes at the same time. Quantum provides stunning printing performances: more than 1,000 cards per hour in monochrome and more than 150 cards per hour in color.
• Reliability and high quality Quantum is about reliability. All components have been engineered to support high-volume batches, while a new cleaning process and an airtight cover protect the system against dust.
• Convenience and ease of use Quantum is fully user-oriented. All core mechanical and electronic concepts have been designed to ease and speed up daily use and maintenance tasks.
• Affordability Quantum takes the lead over the competition, thanks to multiple advanced concepts: it outperforms desktop printers and stands as an affordable alternative to industrial machines. Quantum brings a wealth of features at a cost-efficient price, while consumables are priced to optimize the Total Cost of Ownership.
