Hologram & Authentication
Advanced Inspection Systems for Secure, Authentic & Tamper-Proof Hologram Production
Holograms and authentication features are critical tools in the fight against counterfeiting. Any defect, inconsistency, or misalignment can compromise security, brand protection, and trust.
Lucid Imaging delivers automated inspection systems designed to ensure absolute accuracy, consistency, and authenticity in hologram and authentication feature production.
Industries Overview
Real-Time Quality Control for OVDs and Security Labels
Holograms and authentication elements such as OVDs, kinegrams, foils, and security labels are widely used across banknotes, passports, IDs, pharmaceuticals, FMCG products, and brand protection applications. These features rely on complex microstructures, optical effects, and precise registration to function correctly.
Due to their intricate nature and high production speeds, manual inspection is unreliable and subjective. Automated machine vision inspection plays a vital role in verifying optical consistency, pattern accuracy, and placement, ensuring that every hologram performs as intended and remains resistant to counterfeiting.
Quality Challenges
Key Quality Challenges in the Hologram & Authentication Industry
Hot Stamping Mis-Registration
