Heavy-duty, affordable laminators

Whether you’re a small publisher, printer, bindery, copy center, or corporation, the quality of your final product is important. Laminating your soft and hard cover books ensures their protection and extends their durability. Many companies manufacture laminators, but most of them are tabletop machines made with plastic components that aren’t suitable for long-term professional use or produce the best possible results.

There are many factors that can affect the quality of your lamination, the type and thickness of the laminate, paper grain direction, constant heat and speed control and much more. To make your life simpler, we offer a family of laminators that are specifically designed so that you can laminate consistently, with no wrinkles, no bubbles, and no troubles! You can do single or double sided laminating as well as mounting.
The laminators can be ordered with either 1” or 3” mandrels. If laminate regularly, use 3” core sizes. Save money, larger rolls of laminate cost less per foot than smaller rolls! Not having to change rolls as often means that you can be more productive.

Has paper curl been a problem for you in the past? In many instances, the solution to minimizing paper curl may not be a reverse curling mechanism! Too much tension on the laminate causes material stretching and memory. Our laminator allows the roll/cylinder to spin freely as needed. The 3” mandrels/cores help to reduce paper curl because it isn’t wrapped as tightly as smaller cores. Finally, new nylon laminates are thinner and chemically formulated to curl less.

Our laminators are manufactured for fast warm up time and maintain constant temperature throughout the run at plus or minus 3 degrees (hysterisis). Temperature is measured in the middle of the roll, not just at the edge of the roll.
