Description

The MATICA S3300e is a specialized financial card instant-issuance and personalization system designed for environments where payment and financial cards need to be personalized, encoded, embossed, and issued efficiently at the point of service.

The system integrates several card-personalization technologies into a single professional platform, including magnetic stripe encoding, mechanical embossing, tipper printing, contact-chip reading, and rear-side CVV/CVC indentation.

With its single manual card feeder and card presenter, the S3300e is particularly suited to branch-based and centralized financial card issuance where individual cards are personalized and delivered directly to customers.

The system also provides security-oriented features such as an electrical control lock and mechanical cover lock, helping restrict physical access to the card-personalization mechanism.

Instant Financial Card Issuance

The S3300e is designed for instant card issuance, allowing organizations to personalize cards at the point where they are issued rather than relying entirely on centralized, off-site card production.

This can help financial institutions streamline customer-facing card services and reduce the operational complexity associated with traditional card issuance workflows.

Typical applications can include:

• Debit card issuance
• Credit card issuance
• Financial membership cards
• Replacement cards
• Instant personalized cards
• Branch-based card issuance

3-Track Magnetic Stripe Encoding

The integrated magnetic stripe encoder supports three tracks and both HiCo and LoCo magnetic stripe technologies.

This allows the system to encode compatible magnetic-stripe cards according to the requirements of the card-issuing application.

Magnetic Stripe Features

• 3-track encoding
• HiCo support
• LoCo support
• Suitable for compatible financial and identification card applications

Magnetic stripe encoding can be integrated into the card-personalization process alongside printing and embossing.

Important: Actual financial-card encoding formats, data structures, and security requirements depend on the issuing institution, card specification, payment system, and software configuration.

---

72-Character Embossing System

One of the key capabilities of the S3300e is its embossing drum with capacity for 72 characters.

Embossing physically raises characters on the card surface, creating a durable and tactile representation of cardholder or card information.

This is particularly relevant to financial card personalization where embossed information may be required by the card design or issuing workflow.

Standard Gothic Alphanumeric Font

The supplied configuration includes a Standard Gothic alphanumeric embossing font supporting 42 characters, including:

ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ

0123456789 & – / . , ‘

This provides support for common uppercase letters, numbers, and specified punctuation characters used in card personalization.

OCR-7B Numeric Font

The system also includes an OCR-7B numeric embossing font supporting 10 numeric characters:

0–9

This can be used for compatible numeric card-personalization requirements.

---

Tipper Station

The S3300e incorporates a dedicated tipper station for card personalization.

The tipper station uses an easily removable ribbon cartridge, helping simplify ribbon replacement and routine maintenance.

The combination of embossing and tipping provides additional flexibility for financial-card personalization workflows.

---

Rear-Side CVV/CVC Indentation

The S3300e configuration includes a rear-side infiller module with indentation capability for security CVV/CVC information.

The system supports indentation of up to 10 numeric characters (0–9) for the rear-side security code.

This feature can be used in compatible card designs where CVV/CVC information needs to be physically incorporated into the rear side of the card.

Rear CVV/CVC Features

• Rear-side security-code indentation
• Supports numeric characters
• Up to 10 characters
• Designed for CVV/CVC personalization workflows

Actual CVV/CVC implementation should follow the issuing institution’s security policies and applicable payment-card requirements.

---

PCSC Contact Chip Reader

The S3300e includes a PCSC contact chip reader for compatible smart-card applications.

This provides support for card workflows requiring communication with a contact-chip interface.

The contact-chip functionality can complement the system’s other personalization technologies, allowing organizations to manage cards that incorporate multiple technologies.

---

Single Manual Card Feeder & Card Presenter

The system uses a single manual card feeder, designed for individual-card issuance rather than large unattended batch production.

This configuration is particularly suitable for:

• Bank branches
• Customer service counters
• Financial service desks
• Instant card issuance stations
• Controlled card-personalization environments

The integrated card presenter facilitates delivery of the personalized card to the operator or customer after processing.

---

Security Features

Security is an important consideration for financial card issuance.

The S3300e includes both:

Electrical Control Lock

An electrical control mechanism helps restrict operation of the system according to the configured access-control workflow.

Mechanical Cover Lock

The mechanical cover lock provides an additional physical security measure by restricting unauthorized access to internal card-processing components.

Together, these features are useful in financial environments where card stock and personalization mechanisms must be physically controlled.

---

USB Connectivity

The S3300e provides a USB interface for connection to the host computer and associated card-issuance software.

USB connectivity makes the system suitable for deployment at individual card-issuance workstations, such as bank branches and customer-service counters.

---

MaticardPro Software

The configuration includes a MaticardPro software license, providing the software environment required for card-personalization operations.

MaticardPro can be used as part of the card issuance workflow for managing the printer and personalization functions supported by the S3300e.

---

MatiDesk DLL Software Development Kit

The system also includes a Software Development Kit (SDK) for integration with the MatiDesk DLL.

This is particularly useful for system integrators and organizations that need to connect the S3300e to proprietary or existing card-issuance applications.

SDK integration can help organizations develop workflows that connect card personalization with systems such as:

• Banking applications
• Customer-management systems
• Card-management platforms
• Branch banking software
• Identity systems
• Custom issuance applications

---

Ideal Applications

Banking & Financial Institutions

The S3300e is particularly suited to banks and financial institutions requiring instant card personalization at branches or service locations.

Branch-Based Card Issuance

The manual feeder and card presenter make the system suitable for controlled one-card-at-a-time issuance.

Debit & Credit Card Personalization

Its combination of magnetic encoding, embossing, tipping, chip reading, and security-code indentation supports complex financial-card workflows.

Replacement Cards

The system can be used for compatible replacement-card workflows where cards need to be personalized and issued directly to customers.

System Integrators

The MatiDesk DLL SDK provides integration capabilities for organizations developing customized card-issuance solutions.
