A lamination machine protects paper from tears, spills, wrinkles, and any other substance that could alter the text or graphic were it to make contact with the original paper. It also intensifies colors and improves the overall appearance of printed documents and signs. Different projects require a different weight of lamination film, depending on use and location of the item to be laminated, and finishes are available in matte, gloss, or satin.
Laminating machines are either hot or cold. A hot laminating machine is the most common, but because some documents are heat sensitive, a cold machine is the most appropriate choice for some uses.
For these types of laminating machines, the lamination material comes in “pouches” which are actually two sheets of plastic film bound on one edge. Items are placed in an appropriately sized pouch, trimmed, and then placed in a cardboard carrier. The carrier is a simple piece of heavy card stock, similar to a file folder, and it protects the lamination pouch from direct contact with the hot rollers. Once a machine is warmed up and your item is snugly protected in the carrier, you place the closed edge of the carrier in the mouth of the laminating machine, and the rollers pull it slowly through, heating the carrier and lamination pouch. The heat reacts with the pouch, activating an adhesive which then binds to the paper, and the carrier exits the back of the machine with the newly durable, aesthetically enhanced item, ready to be placed on a wall, in a wallet, or wherever the laminated product will find its new home.
