Method for producing a film composite (11) from several material webs (14, 15, 16, 17, 18) for a valuable or security document, wherein each material web (14, 15, 16, 17, 18) is transported along at least one transport roller (21, 22, 23, 24, 25) and fed to at least one lamination device (34), wherein each surface of the material web (14, 15, 16, 17, 18) that is laminated with an adjacent material web (14, 15, 16, 17, 18) is preheated with at least one
heating element (29, 30, 31, 32) after leaving the last transport roller (21, 22, 23, 24, 25) and before entering the lamination device (34), and between two In each of the adjacent material webs (14,15; 15,16; 16,17; 17,18) at least one
heating element (29, 30, 31, 32) is positioned, through which the surfaces of the adjacent material webs (14,15; 15,16; 16,17; 18) to be laminated are heated.17, 18) are preheated,- wherein the preheated material webs (14, 15, 16, 17, 18) are brought together with a pair of rollers (26) and then fed to the lamination device (34) and laminated together to form the film composite (11), characterized in that two or more material webs (14, 15, 16, 17, 18) are made of a
thermoplastic elastomer, and that the respective
heating element (29, 30, 31, 32) is controlled with a
heating power such that the surface of these material webs (14, 15, 16, 17, 18) is preheated to a temperature that corresponds to or is higher than the
glass transition temperature of the respective material web (14, 15, 16, 17, 18).
