card personalization system. The MX6100 system is a reliable and efficient
system that delivers lower cost-per-card and fast throughput. The system has a
rated speed of up to 1,800 cards per hour (depending on agreed configuration).
Up to 28 modules can be configured in a single system.
The MX6100 system is a modular system built on the MX Series platform. The
MX6100 enhances security, reduces handling, and provides additional production
automation. The system can be configured with the MXD611 card delivery
system and MXi610 envelope insertion system for a complete inline fulfillment
solution.
