PRE-COATING A SUBSTRATE / CREATING A SLED
This process is used to cover substrates with a self-
adhesive coating. Images can then be mounted on the
substrate. The same process is used to create a sled or
carrier board.
Preparation:
Set the temperature of the top main roll. Recommended
temperature is 120°F (49°C). The bottom main roll is off.
Mount your pressure sensitive adhesive on the top
unwind with the adhesive away from the roller.
Prepare a leader board with the same thickness as the
boards to be coated.
n
Step one – Measure the thickness of the board to be
coated and select the corresponding nip setting.
n
Step two - Pull the adhesive from the top unwind and
lay it evenly over the top roller.
n
Step three - Press the footswitch and push the
adhesive into the nip using the leader board. Release
the footswitch when the rear edge of the leader board
is in the roller nip.
n
Step four - Position the board to be coated behind the
leader. When coating more than one board, ensure
that the boards follow each other without any gaps in
between them. You may use the footswitch or the
motor button.
n
Step five - Follow the last board being coated with a
leader board. This allows the final board to clear the
laminating rollers. Stop the motor and raise the top
roller.
