Method for producing portable data carriers

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for producing portable data carriers (10, 11), wherein first there are provided a module carrier band (20), on which are arranged chip modules (26) with contact surfaces (21) arranged on one side of the module carrier band (20), and at least one substrate foil (31, 32, 33), respectively as rolled goods. The module carrier band (20) and the at least one substrate foil (31, 32, 33) are unrolled from the respective roll (51, 52, 53) and continuously brought together. Then, the module carrier band (20) is permanently connected with the at least one substrate foil (31, 32, 33) in such a way that the contact surfaces (21) of the chip modules (26) point outward. From the composite (40) there can be detached in particular portable data carriers in the format ID-000 (10) or mini-UICC (11).
