How do thermal laminators work for thermal lamination film?

Thermal lamination film is a type of film with a heat-sensitive adhesive layer, typically composed of base film and a layer of adhesive. The thermal laminator is the key equipment that uses heat to bond thermal laminating film to documents or images, creating a protective and durable laminated layer. The thermal laminating machine applies heat and pressure to activate the adhesive on the film, which then bonds the film to the document.

How to use thermal laminator?

Take EKO-360 for an example

Preparation: Begin by turning on the heat laminating machine and allowing it to preheat. Adjust the settings based on the thickness and size of the thermal lamination film being used.

Loading the Document: Place the document to be laminated in the center of the thermal lamination film, ensuring that there is a margin around the edges of the document.

Initiating Lamination: Feed the document and thermal lamination film into the laminator. The document passes through the area between the heated roller and the pressure roller. During this process, the adhesive layer of the thermal lamination film is heated, bonding it to the surface of the document.

Waiting for Completion: After the document has passed through the laminator, allow it to sit for a moment to ensure that the lamination is fully set.

Trimming and Finishing: Trim the edges of the laminated document as needed to create a neat and professional appearance.

Precautions when using thermal laminators

Safety Precautions: Thermal laminator generate high temperatures during operation, so it’s important to avoid touching the heated components to prevent burns.

Selecting Appropriate Thermal Lamination Film: Choose the thickness and type of thermal lamination film based on the size of the document and the level of protection required.

Avoiding Paper Jams: Ensure that the document and thermal lamination film are aligned properly to prevent paper jams or misalignment during the lamination process.

EKO-360 is a small size and portable thermal laminator with anti-scalding protection device, double side heating roller and rewinding roller. It’s manual, suitable for office, home and small workshop. Both sheet and roll film can use this machine for laminating.
