Gold

Gietz AG, Switzerland, founded in 1892, is a byword for reliability in the security industry.

A pioneer in OVD transfer technology, 1986 Gietz supplied the world’s first FSA NOTA machine with hologram positioning capability overseas. As from 1990 more than 40 FSA NOTA machines were exported exclusively in the field of banknote printing. Gietz’ latest innovation within the security range is the FSA 1060 Foil Commander NOTA, closing the gap to the super-size format by applying OVD patches and stripes on banknotes of any substrate as well as official governmental documents.

Security features of currency notes have been a main challenge in order to make counterfeiting more difficult. At the same time, the improvements in security have increased the quality control techniques and the manufacturing cost.

To improve cost-effectiveness during the production process of paper making and printing, IN-CORE Systèmes designs and manufactures automatic surface inspection systems based on line scan cameras, high performance illumination and computer technology with proprietary process software. The system allows manufacturers to manage more efficiently quality standards, waste reduction and optimal yield. 100% production monitoring is guaranteed through continuous control and global traceability at each process step. Moreover, the system delivers a total control of final product combined with customized data management
