IAI supplies passport-personalisation-systems to AB Svenska Pass in Tumba, Sweden.

July 9, 2008

Industrial Automation Integrators (IAI) B.V. in Veldhoven, the Netherlands, a subsidiary of DOCDATA N.V. in Waalwijk, the Netherlands, will supply two BookMaster One systems to AB Svenska Pass in Tumba Sweden. The BookMaster One systems will be used for the personalisation of the Swedish passport.

BookMaster One systems perform the entire personalisation of a passport in one pass through the machine, including a quality verification of all processing done. Thus, the system is able to turn blank passports offered to the machine, into fully personalized passports ready for issuing. Due to its high degree of integration, each BookMaster One system can replace several existing personalisation systems.

BookMaster One systems are already employed in the personalisation of Swiss and Ukrainian passports and, later this year, the Algerian passport will follow. Other IAI systems are employed in the processing of passports for countries such as: Belgium, The Netherlands, Portugal, United Kingdom, Costa Rica, Ireland, Sweden, Estonia, and Canada.

The fact that Svenska Pass (once again) decides in favour of IAI systems confirms and strengthens IAI’s position as a prominent supplier to the Security Printers market which produces products such as passports, banknotes, identity cards, drivers’ licenses and other securities.

Both systems offer laser-perforation and inkjet-printing in numerous variations. The SheetMaster Flex system processes documents printed in sheet, whereas the WebMaster Flex system processes documents printed in web.

The new systems add to the range of IAI-products for the Security Printing market. This allows IAI to profit from its excellent reputation by offering systems for a market segment which is hardly served by any company yet.

IAI will supply BookMaster One systems for the personalization of passports to Hotel des Monnaies, a department of the Banque d´Algerie. This department will use the systems for the personalization of Algerian passports.

BookMaster One systems are one of IAI’s latest developments. They perform the entire personalisation of passports in one pass through the system, including quality verification of all processing done. This means that blanc passports are inserted in the system, all personal information is applied, and fully personalized books appear at the output ready for issuing.

At present BookMaster One systems are already employed in the personalisation of Swiss and Ukranian passports. Other IAI systems are employed in the processing of passports for countries such as: Belgium, The Netherlands, Portugal, United Kingdom, Costa Rica, Ireland, Sweden, Estonia and Canada.

The BookMaster One systems for Algeria will be commissioned in 2008.

Waalwijk, The Netherlands, 28 January 2008 – DOCdata N.V. (Euronext Amsterdam: DOCD)

Industrial Automation Integrators (IAI) B.V. enters the market for solar cell production systems.

December 17, 2007

For IAI, the focus of the year 2007 has been on the strategic search for new markets. Part of this was research on the application of the core competences of IAI into these new markets.

The current core competences of IAI are the design, building, installation and maintenance of automated production systems, especially utilising optical and laser technology. The outcome of this research is that these core competences align well with the demand for specialised production systems in the production process of solar cells.

Each type of solar cell requires its own automated production systems to enable production at some scale for an acceptable price. The continuous effort to decrease production costs and increase efficiency of solar cells leads to improvements of existing types, as well as to the introduction of new types.

It is therefore expected that for many years to come there will be a considerable demand for specific, automated production systems in which product handling, laser, optical, vision and software will be important technologies. These items align perfectly with the knowledge and experience of IAI in the existing application areas.

The market for solar cells has at least the following characteristics: market research studies unanimously predict double digit growth rates for many years to come; at the moment, many different types of solar cells are being produced and many different types are being developed; laser operations and product handling are important items for the production of solar cells.

In the meantime, IAI has booked the first order for the delivery of a solar cell production system. With the application of IAI’s knowledge of and experience in laser technology this system realises innovative connection technology for solar cells.

DOCdata intends to shape the market strategy for IAI further in the coming months by entering into partnerships that are necessary to enter into this market for solar cell production systems. Next to this, IAI will continue its attention for existing markets. IAI will introduce new products in the security printing market in order to serve a larger share of this market.

November 15, 2004

Two different types of systems will be supplied: the BookMaster 220 system already in use in several countries in Western Europe and the BookMaster One system which was introduced at the Intergraf exhibition (“International Security Printers’ & Suppliers’ Exhibition”) in Granada (Spain), last month.

The BookMaster One system takes care of the total personalisation of a passport booklet in one go: a blank booklet is inserted, all personal information is applied and the application is verified by the system. The result is a passport ready for issuing. The BookMaster One includes amongst others the following functionality: laser engraving of photo and data, laser perforation of NumberPerf® and ImagePerf/TLI®, loading biometric data in the chip and quality control of all applied features.

May 13, 2003

IAI will supply Laser Perforation systems for the application on the patented security feature ImagePerf/TLI® in the Swiss and Irish passports. IAI will also supply systems for the application of NumberPerf® in passports to leading security printers François Charles Oberthur Fiduciaire in France and De La Rue Global Services in the United Kingdom.

In Switzerland, the existing production capacity needs to be extended due to the fact that the number of passport applications by the public exceeds the anticipated number. As before, the equipment will be supplied via main contractor and security printer Orell Füssli in Zürich to the Bundesambt für Bauten und Logistik in Bern.

In Ireland, the Irish Passport Office has decided to implement the security feature ImagePerf/TLI® in the future version of the Irish passport.

After the implementation of IAI's ImagePerf® technology in Belgian, Dutch, Estonian and Swiss passports, this decision of the Irish authorities once again affirms the outstanding value attributed to IAI's ImagePerf® as a security feature.

Security printers François Charles Oberthur Fiduciaire in Paris, France, and De La Rue Global Services in Basingstoke, UK, both supply passports to a large number of countries. In spite of fierce competition, both of them decided in favour of IAI systems for the application of NumberPerf®. For these printers of a variety of passports, the flexibility and versatility of IAI's equipment proved to be decisive.

All of the above systems will be delivered in the course of 2003. The orders represent a turnover of over €4.7 million in total.

These orders clearly demonstrate IAI's steady growth in security printing wehere IAI offers systems for the application of security features to passports, identity cards, banknotes etcetera. IAI is honoured to be awarded these contracts of well-established parties in the security printing market.
