CREATOR
Card readers and dispensers for professional kiosk integration
CREATOR delivers OEM motorized, dip and contactless card readers plus high‑capacity dispensers for self‑service, access control and ID applications. Within this category you’ll find RS232/USB, panel‑mount modules with LED/buzzer feedback, anti‑skimming, optional SAM and 24/7‑grade mechanics. Examples from the range: CRT‑310 motorized hybrid reader (IC/MAG/RFID), CRT‑603‑P260‑S contactless reader, CRT‑288 dip card reader, and CRT‑541 card dispenser with bezel. Local service and project support are available from our Budapest center.
Motorized & dip readers, contactless modules and card dispensers
The CREATOR portfolio covers motorized, dip (manual) and contactless (RFID/NFC) readers plus large‑capacity dispensers engineered for self‑service kiosks, access lanes, parking, banking and customer onboarding. Interfaces are typically RS232 and USB; advanced models add LED indicators, buzzer, abnormal‑card handling (after power loss), anti‑skimming and—depending on model—Visa/Mastercard hardware conformity.
Motorized hybrid readers such as the CRT‑310 family automatically capture and eject cards while supporting magnetic (MAG), chip/EMV (IC) and contactless (RFID/NFC) operations. Dip readers (CRT‑288 series) rely on manual insertion, available with metal or plastic bezels and support for MAG/IC/RFID read/write. The CRT‑603 family operates at 13.56 MHz, handles ISO14443 A/B and MIFARE cards, and comes in board‑level or separate‑antenna OEM variants. Card dispensers like the CRT‑541 offer RS232/USB control and up to ~500‑card capacity without read/write functions.
Typical use cases include finance kiosks, transport & parking, office access control, visitor registration, customer service terminals, gaming/casino machines and ID document scanning (ID‑scanner). Reliable operation requires correct integration and environment: proper ventilation, dust control, adherence to the stated temperature/humidity range and periodic maintenance (cleaning, roller check, firmware updates).

FAQ
What’s the difference between motorized and dip readers?
Motorized (e.g., CRT‑310) auto‑handle cards and add protections; dip (CRT‑288) is manually inserted and simpler to integrate.
Which card types are supported?
Depending on model: MAG/IC (EMV) and RFID/NFC (ISO14443 A/B, MIFARE). The CRT‑603 family targets contactless tasks.
How much maintenance is required?
Regular cleaning, roller inspection, and firmware updates, plus observing the specified temperature/humidity range.
Do you offer local service and fast spares?
Yes—Budapest‑based service provides vendor‑level support and spare parts.
