Invisible, but Indispensable.
RFID Inlays for
ID Documents.
With our modular system solutions, we accompany you through all phases of RFID inlay production – from antenna production and module insertion to testing and personalization. We thus offer a seamless production and quality assurance process from a single source.
RFID inlays form the technological heart of modern ID documents - from electronic passports to contactless ID cards. Our ultrasonic wire embedding technology ensures the precise production of antennas with stable electrical properties and high mechanical resilience. Compared to etched or printed variants, wire-laid antennas offer an economically attractive and qualitatively convincing solution.

WCE2000 - Fully Automated RFID Inlay Production System
The WCE2000 sets new standards in the high-speed production of RFID inlays. With a throughput of up to 4,050 antennas per hour as a wire-laying machine and up to 2,000 complete RFID inlays per hour as an inlay production line, it offers maximum efficiency.
The flexible platform enables sheet-to-sheet (S2S), roll-to-sheet (R2S) or roll-to-roll (R2R) processing. Integrated functions such as module loading, laser marking stations and the embedding of transponders in various form factors enable customized production processes.
The WCE2000 is also compatible with ID1, ID3 and customer-specific layouts. It supports an efficient material flow with automatic web tension control, minimal waste and short changeover times - ideal for high production volumes and frequently changing product variants. Applications for the system include the production of electronic passports, health cards, access control systems and contactless payment methods.

- 1,600 inlay sheets per hour
- Up to 4 patented wire embedding heads
- Easy Create" design software
- RFID inlays for ID1 and ID3
- Rotary table concept
- Any antenna geometry, including meander
WCE700 - Semi-Automatic RFID Inlay Production System
The WCE700 is an economical, semi-automatic system for the production of RFID inlays for ID documents in the standard formats ID1 (e.g. bank cards) and ID3 (e.g. passports). The system is based on a rotary table concept with four stations and manual loading and unloading.
It is suitable for both small orders and series production with a throughput of up to 1,600 inlay sheets per hour. The machine combines precise wire embedding, module implantation and soldering in one compact solution

- Up to 40 inlay sheets per hour
- Up to 2 patented wire embedding heads
- RFID inlays for ID1 and ID3
- Easy Create" design software
- Prototypes and small orders
- Any antenna geometry, including meander
WCE150 - Laboratory System for Prototypes and Small Series
The WCE150 is a practical laboratory solution for the production of prototypes and small orders with up to 40 inlay sheets per hour. With its single, flexible station and manual loading and unloading, it is ideal for the production of RFID inlays in ID1 and ID3 formats.
Alternatively, it can be used exclusively for the production of wire-laid antennas. The integrated functions such as module punching, pick & place systems and thermocompression welding or soldering can be individually combined.


Advantages of Our
RFID Inlay Systems
All systems in the WCE series – WCE2000, WCE700 and WCE150 – are based on a common technological foundation and therefore offer a variety of advantages for a wide range of production requirements:
