Who would particularly benefit from the Entrust Sigma DS3?

HR and facility managers at large companies who issue hundreds of ID cards every day and must comply with the highest security standards.
Universities and schools with semester or school year batch printing and a need for different card types (student ID, library card, cafeteria card).
Hospitals and care facilities that require robust, disinfectant-resistant employee and patient IDs.
Event agencies and print service providers that provide on-demand badges in seconds – including on-site lamination for multiple events.
Public administrations that issue citizen IDs or visitor badges with high protection against forgery.

With its scalable scope of delivery (from single workstation to network operation), the DS3 grows with your requirements and is therefore a future-proof investment for growing card programmes.

With the optional lamination module, cards can withstand up to five years of daily use – ideal for industries with high card usage (see image on the left).

The Entrust Sigma DS3 is the all-inclusive package for professional card issuance: It combines the speed of a production printer with the user-friendliness of a desktop device, while offering maximum security and modular expandability. Compared to the DS1 and DS2, it scores with higher throughput, standard duplex lamination, larger card capacity and state-of-the-art connectivity – in short: if you are investing in a card printer today that will still meet all your requirements tomorrow, the DS3 is the obvious choice.
