Tips for Pre Coating Boards 

 

1.

 

Load the laminator as illustrated in (Fig. 30). 
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. 31) 

 

Note:

 This application can also be performed from 

the rear operating position. Reference Fig. 34 for 
Illustration. 

 

 

Tips for Single Sided lamination 

 

1.

 

Load the laminator as illustrated in Fig. 32. 

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

o

F (52

o

C) may help eliminate 

silvering effects associated with PSA films.
