ABSTRACT:
A system for processing chip and/or magnetic strip cards (K), comprising at least one card supply magazine for accommodating cards to be processed; at least a chip and/or magnetic stripe processing station for applying data/information on the chip and/or the magnetic stripe of the cards (I), with a certain chip and/or magnetic stripe processing time being associated with the station; at least one card body processing station for applying data/information on the card body, with a certain card body processing time being associated with the station; a card transport system which transports the cards from the card supply magazine to the chip and/or magnetic stripe processing station and subsequently to the card body processing stations and from these onwards, wherein the processing time of the at least one chip and/or magnetic stripe processing station differs from the processing time of the at least one card body processing station, and the card transport time from the card supply magazine to one of the processing stations as well as the card transport time from one of the processing stations to another of the processing stations is shorter than a processing time of the processing station with the longest processing time; wherein there are a first number of the processing stations with approximately the longest processing time, which first number is greater than the number of the processing stations with the shortest processing time.
