🖨️ Heidi: The Agile and Cost-Effective Solution
Heidi printers are the ideal choice for small to medium-sized organizations that need a perfect balance of high performance, ease of use, and competitive pricing. The Heidi CP55 series, specifically the CP55-S (single-sided) and CP55-D (dual-sided) models, utilizes direct-to-card (DTC) printing technology. This method applies the design directly from a ribbon onto the card’s surface, making it fast and efficient for standard ID applications.
Heidi CP55-S: The Entry-Level Powerhouse
The Heidi CP55-S is a compact and user-friendly single-sided card printer. It is the perfect entry point for businesses, schools, or offices with on-demand ID printing needs. Despite its small footprint, it delivers professional-grade results with a 300 dpi print resolution.
- Print Speed: The CP55-S is built for efficiency, printing up to 170 full-color cards per hour (YMCKO) and up to 720 monochrome cards per hour.
- Key Features: It includes a 100-card input hopper and a 40-card output hopper, ensuring smooth batch printing. Security features include support for UV printing ribbons and an optional Kensington lock to prevent theft.
- Applications: It’s a go-to for student IDs, employee badges, visitor passes, and membership cards where information is primarily on one side.
The Heidi CP55-S can also be easily upgraded with an optional flipper module to become a dual-sided printer, offering a flexible and scalable solution as your needs grow.
Heidi CP55-D: Dual-Sided Efficiency
The Heidi CP55-D is the dual-sided version, built to double the productivity and information capacity of a single-sided printer. It automatically prints on both sides of a card in a single pass, making it perfect for IDs that require more detail.
- Print Speed: It maintains a high-speed output, printing up to 100 dual-sided color cards per hour (YMCKO) and up to 130 dual-sided cards with a black reverse side (YMCKOK).
- Key Features: Like its single-sided counterpart, it has a robust build and supports a variety of encoding options, including magnetic stripes and contact/contactless smart cards (MIFARE, iCLASS, DESFire). Its dual-sided capability is ideal for including a photo on the front and detailed information, barcodes, or QR codes on the reverse.
- Applications: It’s heavily used in organizations that need to print employee details, emergency contacts, or a barcode for access control on the back of the card, such as corporate offices, hospitals, and universities.
🏭 DASCOM: Industrial-Grade Security and Performance
DASCOM printers are a step up, engineered for high-volume, high-security environments. Leveraging a legacy of German design and precision manufacturing, DASCOM printers are workhorses known for their durability and advanced features. NDAS Phils Inc. distributes several models, including the direct-to-card DC-240 and the flagship retransfer printer, the DC-7600.
DASCOM DC-240: The High-Speed Workhorse
The DASCOM DC-240 is a direct-to-card printer built for industrial performance. It is compact yet powerful, delivering professional-grade results with high-speed printing capabilities.
- Print Speed & Resolution: It offers a resolution of up to 300 x 600 dpi, ensuring crisp, detailed prints. It can print up to 155 full-color cards per hour and up to 775 monochrome cards per hour, making it perfect for high-volume batch printing.
- Security Features: The DC-240 includes robust security features like customizable watermarks and RFID ribbon protection, which obscures sensitive information from used ribbons.
- Applications: The DC-240 is the ideal choice for schools, large corporations, and government offices that require a high-speed, reliable printer for issuing employee IDs, student IDs, and loyalty cards on a daily basis.
DASCOM DC-7600: The Retransfer Security Titan
The DASCOM DC-7600 is the flagship model, designed for organizations where security, durability, and print quality are non-negotiable. It utilizes retransfer printing technology, which is a two-step process. First, the image is printed on a clear film, and then the film is thermally bonded to the card. This “over-the-edge” printing technique ensures the design covers the entire card with no white border, and the film acts as an extra protective layer.
- Print Quality & Security: With a high-definition 600 dpi resolution, the DC-7600 produces vibrant, photorealistic images. The retransfer film and advanced security options, such as holographic overlays and DASCOM’s Secure Multi-Layer (DSML) technology, make the cards virtually impossible to counterfeit. The DSML technology applies a unique watermark under the retransfer film, which can even be customized for each project.
- Durability: Cards produced by the DC-7600 are highly durable, resistant to fading, and less prone to scratching, making them perfect for high-wear applications.
- Applications: This printer is the go-to solution for high-security applications like government IDs, driver’s licenses, airport access cards, and instant issuance payment cards for financial institutions.
💳 Card Readers: The Gatekeepers of Security
Beyond printing, NDAS Phils Inc. provides a crucial element of the security ecosystem: card readers. These devices are essential for authenticating the information encoded on the ID cards and controlling access to secure areas. NDAS carries a range of readers from partners like Argox, ensuring seamless integration with their ID card solutions.
Argox Barcode Scanners: For Retail & Logistics
NDAS Phils Inc. distributes a variety of Argox barcode scanners that cater to different business needs. These scanners are versatile tools for data capture and are widely used in retail, warehousing, and healthcare.
- Models & Features:
- Argox AS-8060-1D: A cost-effective, high-speed corded scanner for reading standard 1D barcodes. Ideal for POS systems in retail or inventory management.
- Argox AS-9400-2D: A more versatile corded imager that reads both 1D and 2D barcodes, including QR codes, from both paper and digital screens. This is essential for modern applications like mobile ticketing and digital loyalty programs.
- Argox AS-9400BT: The wireless version of the AS-9400, offering the freedom of Bluetooth connectivity for mobile operations in warehouses, clinics, or on the retail floor.
- Applications: These readers are crucial for inventory management, point-of-sale (POS) transactions, ticket validation, and asset tracking.
Other Card Readers: Contact & Contactless
NDAS also supplies readers for other card technologies, enabling a wide range of access control and authentication applications.
- Magnetic Stripe Readers: These readers are used to read data from the magnetic stripe on the back of ID cards. They are commonly used for loyalty cards, hotel keys, and simple access control where a high level of security isn’t the primary concern.
- Contact Smart Card Readers: These readers require the card’s chip to be physically inserted into the device. They provide a high level of security and are used for applications like secure logins to computer networks, digital signatures, and banking cards.
- Contactless Smart Card Readers (RFID/MIFARE): These readers use radio-frequency identification to read data from a distance, requiring only a tap or wave of the card. They are the backbone of modern access control systems, public transport payment, and secure campus IDs.
