Abstract:
The present invention is directed towards a method of manufacturing a security sheet ( 11 ) for displaying personal data and a security sheet ( 11 ) formed by such a method. The method comprises heating a plastic substrate ( 14 ) to an at least softened state. The method further comprises applying a resin ( 8 ) to a first and/or second outer surface ( 15, 16 ) of the plastic substrate ( 14 ) such that the resin ( 8 ) fuses with the plastic substrate ( 14 ) during the heating step to form at least one raised structure ( 25 ). The present disclosure is also directed towards a security document ( 10 ) comprising such a security sheet ( 11 ) and an apparatus ( 30 ) for manufacturing the security sheet ( 11 ).

Claim (Index 33):
An apparatus for manufacturing at least one security sheet, said apparatus comprising:\n at least one support surface comprising at least one recessed profile and arranged to receive a plurality of plastic sheets adjacent thereto; at least one reservoir arranged to deposit a resin into the at least one recessed profile; at least one heating device configured to apply heat and pressure to the plurality of plastic sheets adjacent to the at least one support surface, such that the plurality of plastic sheets are fused to one another to form a plastic substrate and the resin is fused with a first and/or second outer surface of the plastic substrate to form at least one raised structure.
