SET UP GUIDE
3) Card fan : Card Fan
During laminating, the reverse side of the card (the side that is not laminated) is cooled. Usually, the setting is OFF
but when the convexity is very prominent on the laminated side, the fan is set to LOW or more to prevent the card
from warping.
4) Card cooling time : Cooling Time
When the card is received from the re-transfer printer, the card is very hot. Even when the card is laminated after
Bend Remedy is performed at the printer, the results of the correction is not as expected. To ensure the results of
Bend Remedy, cooling time can be set before transfer. In the case of overlay film where the laminate energy is low,
effective results can be expected when the printer Bend Remedy is performed and card cooling is set before
laminating.
(3) Maintenance Mode settings
1) Temperature correction gain :
Temp + Gain , Temp – Gain
The heat roller temperature is adjusted and influence to the environment temperature is reduced through the
temperature sensor inside the device. When influence to surrounding temperature is different depending on the
card, change the gain settings. The bigger the setting value, the bigger the adjustment volume of the heat roller
temperature is for the temperature changes.
+Gain : When the environment temperature is lower than 25°C, it functions to increase the heater temperature.
Standard setting : 2
When the Gain value is too big, warping increases during low temperature/
When the Gain value is insufficient, adhesiveness is insufficient during low temperature.
-Gain : When the environment temperature is higher than 25°C, it functions to decrease the heater temperature.
Standard setting : 1.5
When the Gain value is too big, warping increases during high temperature.
When the Gain value is insufficient, adhesiveness is insufficient during high temperature.
(4) Printer [CX-320 (CX210 and CX-3** series) settings
1) Settings for duplex printing
When laminating after duplex printing is performed on re-transfer printer, both sides of the cards are balanced
and warping is less likely to occur. Set Bend Remedy in the printer to OFF. When 1mil is set, as the card
temperature is high during laminating, the card is more prone to convexity when compared to single-printing (no
Bend Remedy). Set the card fan wind increase.
2) Using with Bend Remedy function
When laminating 0.6mil patch or overlay film after single-side printing is performed on re-transfer printer, concave
warping on the laminated side cannot be avoided.
As such, when using 0.6mil patch and overlay, use the Bend Remedy function (User Mode Bend Remedy) on
the printer together to reduce concave warping. Refer to the User Mode settings in CX-320 (CX210 and CX-3**
series) User Guide for the printer settings.
When the card becomes convex due to Bend Remedy, you can lower the printer correction energy (lower temp,
increase speed) to control overheating of the card or set the laminator card fan wind increase to reduce the
amount of warping.
