Applications

Tips For Pre Coating Boards 

(Figure 34)

1. Load the laminator as illustrated in Figure 34.
Remove chill idler.
2. The width of the roll should not exceed the width
of the board by more than 1/2 in. (1.3 cm).
3. Use a leader board to set the main roller and pull
roller pressure prior to webbing.
4. Use a leader board to start the run and a trailer
board to finish the run.
5. Using the pull rollers will allow you to leave gaps
between boards.
6. If not using the pull rollers, have the boards
nearby to butt end to end during feeding.

Tips For Mounting  Pre Coated Boards

(Figure 35)

1. This application can also be performed from the
rear operating position. Reference Figure 38 for
illustration.
2. Use a leader board to set the main roller pressure
prior to mounting the image.
3. Ensure the chill idler is removed and the rear
slitter is to one side.
4. Heat, 125 OF (52 OC), may assist the process
and increase output quality.
5. Do not stop once you have started the mounting
process through the machine.

Tips For Single Sided lamination

(Figure 36)

1. Load the laminator as illustrated in Figure 36.
2. Use kraft paper for one-sided lamination
whenever the items to be laminated are narrower
than the film you are using.
3. If not using kraft paper, use a scrap piece to finish
the run or you will have adhesive on your rollers.
4. For high volume runs, use Kraft paper and the
lower rear rewind for roll to roll operation.
5. Running the web over the chill idler may improve
