HOLOGRAMS

2D Two-dimensional hologram
This hologram is based on a two-dimensional graphic image, in which all elements are on one level.

Hologram 2D / 3D Bi / Tri Dimensional
The graphic elements of this type of hologram are arranged in 2 or 3 different planes, the fund seems to be “below” or “back” of the main image, giving the illusion of depth. These images can be seen in a wide range of light sources. Acuity edges and bright colors are characteristic of this type of holograms.

3D three-dimensional hologram
This hologram displays an identical three-dimensional image to a solid object derived from a model, sculpture or a computer-generated image. You can see different parts of the image depending on the position in which the hologram look, the viewer can look behind the object as it did if it were would find there. Under proper lighting, such holograms are spectacular.

Multi-channel
This type of holograms contains two (usually) or more images, each in its own “channel” so that depending on the position in which you see displayed a different image or superimposition of these.

Colorgram
Color photographs or transparencies give rise to this kind of holograms. They can be obtained various levels of dimensional effects. The graphic image may be degraded in shade and color, making this seem true or “live”.

Holomatrix®
The continuous rainbow effect such hologram is the result of micro-holographic points, which diffract light in a variety of angles. We can find in this type of holograms, two-dimensional designs (Holomatrix ® 2D), three-dimensional (3D Holomatrix ®) and combinations (Holomatrix ® 2D / 3D)*. Holograms using this technique have much movement, brightness, color and work excellently under different sources and lighting conditions.
*Combinations may include Holomatrix ® technology and optical holograms table.

eBeam
The main feature of this type of hologram is not created with a laser beam, but by a powerful electron beam, which differs from the first size or “diameter” of the beam emitted to create the hologram. Because this is in the region of nanometers performing etching it is very accurate, obtaining a higher quality similar technologies. All this opens a new field to create effects and increase the number of elements in the hologram due to the new space obtained in it.

Combinations
These holograms are achieved by combining one or more techniques. Making images and / or spectacular effects. Holomatrix® can be combined with three-dimensional holograms, providing endless opportunities for new and interesting effects.

SECURITY

Micro Text
They are very small text placed within the hologram that are impossible to be detected by the naked eye.

Micro Image
Tiny images placed within the hologram that are impossible to be detected by the naked eye.

Micro Cut
Exploiting the properties of the material in which the label is embosa Suajes different patterns or physical cuts within the same hindering the removal of the hologram label, when destroying remove performed.

Moiré
Encoded within the hologram elements (graphics or text) by means of interference that are revealed only through one counter subtracts the interference effect, these can have a definition that can range from 400 to 1200 dpi set-top mesh.

Hidden Image
Image (s) that are encoded directly into the hologram and can only be seen through devices that generate coherent light (laser), each of these images has its own channel vision.

Serial Number
This non-contact technology provides high quality marking that identifies your label with a number of consecutive or random series without damaging it during the application process adicionándole a security element.

Barcode
This non-contact technology provides high quality marking that identifies your label with a bar code without damaging it during its application process adicionándole a security element.

Steep and Hidden
It is a security lock that is visible only to rotate the hologram 90 degrees, this can be a text or a simple graphic.

Security Ink
It is a special ink applied on the hologram and is not perceived at first glance, only to expose the hologram a source of black light safety lock in a red hue becomes evident.

Validation Ink
It is a validable ink with a special machine or a laser hologram placed on the evidence of hidden security padlock on a green hue.

Images Concealed Dynamic
In the design of this hologram is a sequence of images in a hidden channel and are visible by illuminating the hologram with a reflected laser directly on a vertical surface as a screen; when the laser is moved along the surface of the hologram an animation effect on the very original screen is generated.

Expansion 3D
The succession of several graphical elements results in an expansion effect, the hologram viewing different angles.

Guilloche, High Security Patterns
As security element is incorporated into the design of the hologram geometrically precise, repetitive pattern with lines that crisscross and high complexity, which greatly impedes forgery and manipulation. This is only achieved with special software with unique parameters, so it is considered as a fingerprint. Such designs are widely used in paper currency, official IDs, passports, diplomas and transcripts.
