The StarLam 1600R liquid laminator uses a peristaltic pump. A peristaltic pump
is a type of positive displacement pump used for pumping a variety of fluids. The fluid is
contained within a flexible tube fitted inside a circular pump casing (though linear
peristaltic pumps have been made). A rotor with a number of "rollers", "shoes" or
"wipers" attached to the external circumference compresses the flexible tube. As the rotor
turns, the part of tube under compression closes (or "occludes") thus forcing the fluid to
be pumped to move through the tube. Additionally, as the tube opens to its natural state
after the passing of the cam ("restitution" or "resilience") fluid flow is induced to the
pump.
The StarLam incorporates a bi-directional type peristaltic pump with a variable
speed capability allowing extreme versatility with different liquids and also aids in
cleaning out the laminate fluid lines. The pumping circuit allows for the fluid to remain in
the fluid lines and never contact and impeller or "freezable" pump part.
The Laminate pump is in the inside of the machine opposite the main control
housing.
