Evolis Quantum 2 Card Printer | Industrial High-Volume ID Solution

The Evolis Quantum 2 is a high-capacity industrial "powerhouse" designed for centralised, large-scale card production. It bridges the gap between a desktop printer and an industrial press, capable of delivering up to 1,000 monochrome cards per hour. Whether you are issuing national ID cards, transit passes, or large-scale student IDs, the Quantum 2 provides the autonomy and speed required for continuous, heavy-duty operation.

Featuring a unique modular design with an independent, reversible encoding station, it allows cards to be printed and encoded in a single, seamless pass without the need to flip the card manually.

Key Features & Benefits

• Unrivalled Autonomy: Equipped with interchangeable 500-card input and output hoppers, allowing for massive print runs (up to 30,000 cards per year) with minimal operator intervention.

• Independent Encoding Module: Includes a patented reversible unit that encodes magnetic stripes, contact smart cards, and contactless cards (RFID) independently of the printing process.

• Industrial Durability: Built with a rugged aluminium body and a sealed cover to protect internal components from dust and debris, ensuring long-term reliability in demanding environments.

• Record-Breaking Speed: Achieve speeds of over 1,000 cards per hour in monochrome or up to 115 full-colour, dual-sided cards per hour (YMCKO-K).

• Versatile Card Handling: Supports a wide range of card thicknesses (0.76mm to 1mm) and materials including PVC, Composite PVC, PET, and ABS.

• Enhanced Security: An optional central locking system is available to secure access to blank cards, ribbons, and the encoding station—essential for high-security issuance.
