FILM LOADING & THREADING
Refer to Figure 8 or the film threading diagram on the feed table of the laminator for illustration of properly loaded film.
SPEED ADJUSTMENT
Good, consistent lamination is a result of combining proper heat, tension and dwell time. Dwell time is the amount of time the material to be laminated is compressed between the rollers and is control by the speed control.
As a general rule thicker items and film as well as dark or full ink coverage items need to run at slower speeds. These items tend to extract more heat from the heat shoe at a quicker rate. Thinner items such as copy paper or tissue paper extract less heat from the heat shoe and can be run at faster speeds
Do not combine thick and thin items at the same time as this will
result in a poor edge seal around the thicker material. If you are unsure that the laminator is set at the proper speed for your item, run a test piece (scrap) of the same or similar material through the laminator. Make speed adjustments as necessary.
The following chart provides general guidelines for proper speed settings to use on certain materials and laminating film combinations. This chart is only a general guide.You may
have to adjust the speed depending on the actual media being laminated.
