BWT-A – Bending Stiffness and Wrapping Test Tool
This tool is a combo tool which includes the BST-A and the WTT-A (¼ radius: 25 and 20mm) and in addition the card can also be tested on the 45° angle corner.
This tool is a combo tool which includes the BST-A and the WTT-A (¼ radius: 25 and 20mm) and in addition the card can also be tested on the 45° angle corner.
Bending stiffness
The BWT-A allows to control the bending stiffness of a card by applying a 0.7 N force according to ISO 10373-1 & ISO 7810 specifications and MasterCard CQM.
Easy to use and fast to perform the tests, it allows to check:
– Magnetic cards
– Smartcards
– Contactless cards
– Dual cards
The reading of the deformation is easy thanks to the transparent ruler.
Wrapping test
The smartcard is wrapping around a 20 mm or 25 mm ¼ radius as specified in the MasterCard CQM. Easy and fast implementation. It allows to test the wrapping of contact and contactless card. This tester allows to go beyond MasterCard CQM specifications. We can place the card on the 45° angle corner.

ATT-A – Card Abrasion – Durability Test Tool
The ATT-A tester is an equipment to test the resistance of the smart card surface elements to abrasion. The card is placed on a bed; the head can receive either 35x35mm sandpaper (CQM test method TM-B04-1) or 13×19 mm soft eraser rub (CQM test method TM-B04-2). Length and position to abrade can be set, head support different weights and speed is adjustable up to 100 mm/s. For sandpaper test, the head is lifted up when it is repositioned to its start position. In the middle of the tester, there is a cutting tool for sandpaper. Applications The ATT-A tester is the perfect equipment to test the resistance of the smart card surface elements to abrasion.

CWT-E – Overall Card Warpage Test Tool
This tool is a combo tool which includes the CWT-A1 and CWT-A2. It allows, thanks to a reversible gauge (1.5mm height and 2.5mm height), to control the warpage of either a card without embossing characters or a card with embossed characters.
T3R-E – Two axes 3-wheel Test Tool
This 3-wheel tester is the most versatile device. Operations can be performed on the longitudinal axis or the transversal axis of the card. The pressure is applied by a weight system and the pressure value can be set to 8N or 15N and with the optional set of weights to 10N, 12N, 20N and 25N as mentioned in the CQM recommendations. Actual pressure can be detected using a weight detector as an option. The test is run at 0.5Hz or 1Hz. The number of cycles can be preset through the human-machine interface. Contactless card can be checked on the fly for failure in option. T3R interface can be accessed through the communication port (Ethernet) for monitoring, remote control or history log download.
