Tips for Pre Coating Boards
1. Load the laminator as illustrated in (Fig. 15). 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
1. Use a leader board to set the main roller pressure prior
to mounting the image.
2. Ensure the chill idler is removed and the rear slitter is
to one side.
3. Do not stop once you have started the mounting
process through the machine. (Fig. 16)
Note: This application can also be performed from the
rear operating position.
Tips for Single Sided lamination
1. Load the laminator as illustrated in Fig. 17.
2. Use Kraft paper for one-sided lamination When ever
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 the
Flatness of the output.
6. A little heat, 125 degree F (52 degree C), may help
eliminate silvering effects associated with PSA films.
