Method for producing a card element

Abstract

A method for producing a card element. In a step, a first material layer having a predefined card body and at least one position marking is provided. In a step, a second material layer having at least one recess extending through the second material layer is provided. In a step, the second material layer is applied onto the first material layer in such a way that the position marking in the first material layer can be optically detected through the recess extending through the second material layer. In a step, a separating device is aligned on the basis of an optically detected location of the position marking. In a step, the predefined card body is separated from the first material layer by means of the separating device so as to produce the card element.
