JM54 Single Height Adjustment (SHA)
JM44SHA/ JM54SHA Roller Pressure Adjustment
The nip gap is the space between the upper and lower main rollers. Both the nip gap and the
processing pressure are controlled by the Height Adjust Hand Wheel, which raises or lowers
the upper roller. The Hand Wheel is located on the end of the right cabinet. The upper roller
height should be adjusted according to the images or substrates being processed.
Overlaminating and Encapsulation: To process thin images the nip gap should be closed
with the pressure set to 40%.
Mounting: When mounting on substrates the nip gap should be set to the thickness of the
substrate by turning the Hand Wheel. The leading edge of the substrate should be inserted
and the pressure set according to the density of the substrate. Hard substrates such as
Masonite®
or
Sintra®
should be set to 40% to 60%. In order to avoid compressing soft
substrates such as foamboard pressure should be set from 10% to 30%.
