Device for replicating a plurality of holograms according to a type-case principle

An apparatus for replicating a plurality of holograms, the apparatus comprising:

• a first carrier configured to arrange a sequence of masters from a multiplicity of masters on the basis of a plurality of holograms to be replicated, in such a way that upper faces of the masters are aligned in a horizontal plane;
• a lamination module configured to detachably laminate laminating a light-sensitive composite web on the aligned upper faces of the masters
• an exposure module configured to expose masters in order to replicate the master holograms in the light-sensitive composite web;
• and
• a detachment module configured to detach the exposed composite web from the masters,
• wherein the masters are detachably incorporated in the first carrier such that a sequence and/or composition of the masters for the replication of the plurality of holograms is variable, and wherein the masters are further incorporated in the first carrier such that two or more faces of the masters are optically accessible for exposure purposes.
