ABSTRACT:
A method and an apparatus for precisely positioning and attaching a protective film to one or both faces of a plastic card. The film may include a layer of an oriented polyester and a layer of an amorphous polyester. The method includes the steps of removably adhering an elongated film to an elongated strip of paper to form a carrier. A panel is die cut from the film but remains attached to the strip of paper. A ridge is embossed in the carrier around at least a portion of the periphery of the panel. The embossed ridge of the carrier is positioned over the identification card to locate the die cut panel of film against a face of the card. The die cut panel is laminated to the card. The film outside of the panel and the strip of paper are removed from the identification card. The apparatus includes a carrier strip consisting of a paper strip, a layer of adhesive and a protective film. The film is die cut to form a panel and a positioning embossment is form around at least a portion of the periphery of the panel. A modified apparatus includes a pair of adjacent panels separated by a fold line so that a panel may be affixed to each face of a card.
