HOW TO CHOOSE A B&G™ Chip

All GPI® SAS chips are custom made for each casino. GPI SAS’s multilingual and experienced sales force travels all over the world to meet customers in order to help gaming and casino managers to choose the arrangementt of their chip bank. This allows the sales force to be a gaming and casino manager’s best partner.

In order for casino managers to choose the arrangement of their chip bank, a choice must first be made for one range of chips between JAV chips or S2 chips. After selecting the range of chips for each denomination, choices must be made for:

  • Colour combination, the base colour and the
    one, two, or three edge spot colours.
  • Size of the edge inserts: plain or reduced.
  • Size of the chip from 39mm to 45mm.
  • Number of edge spots from 3 to 24.
  • Printing process, between silk screen and
    four-colour process.
  • The most important point, the security features.

B&G™ SECURITY FEATURES

Security has always been a top priority for GPl® SAS. Always striving to make each chip as safe as possible, the R&D department has tested and integrated all of the latest technologies into the chips to make them safer.

In order to enhance security on chips and to prevent counterfeiting, B&G™ chips has developed a large choice of security features both on the decal and in the chip.

ON THE DECAL:

UV PIGMENTS
Ultraviolet pigments can be added to the print work on the decal in two ways. Print work can be mixed with a gold or silver print that will glow green under a UV light. Or invisible printing can be added that will only be revealed in red under a UV light.

LASER LOCK MATERIAL
Laser Lock, developed by Laser Lock Technologies, Inc, is a patented product developed to make products safer. Laser Lock components are mixed with the ink and are revealed as green under an invisible laser beam sent by a special pen.

HOLOGRAMS (Click to view)
Sophisticated and customized holograms can be incorporated as a décor on the chip. A holographic background can be a new support for the center decal. The printing of the casino name and logo are still printed on the decal. Holograms can be made with tamper evident materials that break apart. Holograms not only make the chip more secure, but also are more aesthetically appealing and give a unique look to the chip.

IN THE CHIP:

UV PIGMENT (Click to view)
UV pigments can be added during the moulding injection into the second or the third colour of the chip. Under a UV light, the UV pigments are revealed in the inner ring or on the edge spots.

3 Levels of Security are Available

UV LEVEL 1: Standard UV pigment incorporated into secondary colour will glow yellow under a standard long wave UV light.

UV LEVEL 2: Special UV pigment incorporated in edge spot colour will glow green under a special short wave UV light.

UV LEVEL 3: Special UV pigment incorporated in edge spot colour will react to both types of wave lengths. The same insert will glow pink under a standard long wave and yellow under a short wave light.

LASER LOCK MATERIAL (Click to view)
Laser Lock, developed by Laser Lock Technologies, Inc., is a patent product developed to make products safer. Laser Lock components are mixed with the plastic compound and will be revealed by a green spot in the main colour under an invisible laser beam sent out by a special pen.

DETECTION (Click to view)
To prevent against staff stealing, GPI® SAS has made the chips detectable. Thanks to an active material inside the chip, a system of antennas can detect any chip carried away by staff outside the gaming floor.

LUNETTE (Click to view)
Thanks to high tech tools, a see-through lunette can be injected on the outer ring of the chip.

SAFECHIP (Click to view)
