Rinas Ensures the Secure Production of Cards, Tickets, and RFID Media
Long-standing Think-WIOT partner for encoding, personalization, and quality control
When cards, tickets, and RFID media are processed in large volumes, data, material flow, and quality must work together seamlessly. Since 1984, Rinas Gerätetechnik GmbH has been developing systems for the encoding, personalization, analysis, and processing of magnetic, RFID, and chip cards, as well as tickets.
As a long-standing partner of Think WIOT, Rinas brings its expertise to the fields of wireless IoT, RFID, digital identification, and industrial automation. The company combines card and ticket processing with modular technology for scalable production processes.
From Encoding to the Finished Card
Rinas develops systems for key steps in card and ticket processing: encoding, reading, and analyzing magnetic, RFID, and chip cards, as well as separating, flipping, stacking, scanning, testing, printing, and laser marking.
These functions can be used individually or combined into complete systems. This results in solutions for compact standalone stations, customer-specific personalization systems, and industrial production lines.
Relevance for System Integrators and OEM Partners
For system integrators, machine builders, and OEM partners, the modular approach offers clear advantages. Proven Rinas components for card handling, encoding, and quality inspection can be integrated into their own machine designs, eliminating the need to develop each function from scratch.
This shortens development times, reduces technical risks, and provides flexibility in terms of transport routes, software integration, process logic, and cycle times. This creates a robust foundation for reliable processes, particularly in custom production systems.
RFID, Magnetic Cards, and Tickets in Industrial Applications
One of Rinas’s key areas of focus is RFID and magnetic card technology. Systems for parallel RFID encoding can process multiple cards simultaneously, thereby reducing encoding times and increasing throughput.
Rinas also develops high-speed encoders for HICO and LOCO magnetic cards designed for continuous production use. In ticketing, continuous-feed and roll tickets can be combined with RFID technologies such as MIFARE or LEGIC, magnetic encoding, variable print data, and 1D and 2D codes.
Smart Card Personalization in the Automotive Sector
A modular, camera-monitored CS-DOD personalization system enables versatile, secure, and scalable card production tailored to the automotive sector and other institutional needs.
Quality Is Built Into the Process
For cards, tickets, and RFID media, simply writing data is not enough. It is crucial that encoding, printing, data assignment, and material handling operate within defined quality limits.
Rinas integrates analysis and monitoring technology directly into the production process. For example, amplitude and jitter in magnetic cards can be checked during manufacturing, allowing defective media to be sorted out early on.
For solution providers and end users, this means greater process reliability, less scrap, and more controllable quality. This is particularly relevant for ticketing, access control, smart cards, loyalty cards, digital ID applications, and RFID-based services.
Durable Technology for Predictable Production
At Rinas, sustainability is closely linked to durability. Systems are designed to be operated, maintained, and expanded over many years.
Instead of replacing entire systems due to wear and tear or minor defects, specific components can be replaced as needed. This conserves resources, reduces long-term costs, and increases availability in day-to-day production.
Your project deserves more than standard technology
Whether it’s RFID encoding, card personalization, ticket production, quality inspection, or the integration of individual modules into existing systems: Rinas develops solutions tailored to your process.
