ABSTRACT:
A plastic badge holder and method of making same is provided having two opposing sides, laminated together at three edges, thereby forming a pocket between the sides in which to insert a badge or card, or having other folds to provide for enclosure of an identification card therein. The badge holder has a pin affixed with adhesive to the back side for pinning the badge on the wearer. The badge is formed by forming a pair of overlying laminates, securing the laminates together by welding, while simultaneously cutting the configured badge, collecting the badges, stacking them in a chute, delivering the laminates by means of a rotatable index machine to a conveyor, such as a magnetic conveyor, indexing the emplaced laminates by means of the conveyor to a position where a pin is delivered by robot arm to the badge, further indexing the laminates, applying precisely a spot of glue onto the pin laminate juncture, further indexing the laminates to a curing structure, where the adhesive is cured or hardened to rigidly affix the pin to the laminates, to form an identification badge holder, after which time the conveyor delivers the completed badges to a collection station.
