IMT-A – Card Impact Test Tool
The IMT-A test tool has been designed according to industry specification for card body impact testing.
The IMT-A test tool has been designed according to industry specification for card body impact testing.
Application
The IMT-A is a manual control tool that is used to test the resistance of any ID-1 card body against cracks with a specified impact mass. It complies with the ANSI INCITS 322 , ISO/IEC 7811-1 Embossability method and the CQM MasterCard v2.15 specifications (TM-416 test methods).
It is used for:
– Quality control and production control
– Audit and certification
– Card material qualification for embossing
Key Benefits
– Easy-to-setup with two drop heights to generate an impact force of 2,000 mmN and 10,000 mmN – Finishing made of aircraft grade 6061 aluminum / steel alloy barstock and electrostatic coated for a durable long-lasting finish.
Impact cylinder weight
– Calibrated weight with minimum 18N
– Two-level height adjustment to create impact force of 2000 mmN and 10000 mmN

This tool equipped with digital gauge (connected or not to a PC) is a quick and accurate method to measure card body width and height according to CQM test requirements.


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 8, 10 and 12N and with the optional set of weights 2 x 10N 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.
