New developments in passport manufacture
Passports are documents which make high demands in terms of forgery protection. So the machinery deployed in the manufacture of these products must always be state-of-the-art. For the Australian company Note Printing Australia (NPA), Kugler-Womako GmbH has developed a new variant of its passport machine PassPort 2, the PassPort2 PUR, which uses a polyurethane hot-melt adhesive instead of the traditional glues, and a completely new PassPort chip insertion machine.
