DESCRIPTION

• Compact desktop design: includes 2 metal roll holders
• Versatile: besides encapsulating and matting, it is also useful for laminating vinyl, cardboard and UV DTF designs. Here's how to do it
• Adaptable: accommodates different types of film rolls:
  
  • Gloss finish laminate film: to protect and add rigidity to posters, documents, and labels
  • Transfer film: for transferring UV DTF designs onto any object for customization
• Adjustable: suitable for DIN sizes A3, A4, A5, and A6
• 3 lamination systems: cold, hot single-sided, or hot double-sided
• Uniform heat and pressure distribution: thanks to the 4 rollers it incorporates
• Adjustable temperature and speed control: via control panel
  
• Optimal performance: the ventilation grid dissipates heat generated during use
• Safe: overheat protection system. It automatically shuts off when the temperature reaches 130 °C

THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND

• Adjust pressure and temperature according to the personalization technique to be used
• In case of a jam, use the forward and reverse switch
• Leave enough space behind the laminator for smooth material output
• To avoid heat build-up after prolonged use, place it on a flat, stable surface with good ventilation

WHAT DOES THE LAMINATOR INCLUDE?

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE WITH UV DTF PRINTS

1. Print the design onto the DTF adhesive film using a rigid printer
2. Adhere the transfer film onto the freshly printed design and use a spatula to remove bubbles
3. Laminating both films together (adhesive + transfer) by applying heat
4. Once laminated, cut the designs to the desired shape
5. Remove the adhesive film, leaving the design adhered to the transfer
6. Apply the design onto the desired surface and remove the transfer

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE WITH REACTIVE FOIL

1. Print the design with a laser printer
2. Place the foil over the design with the shiny side facing up
3. Pass the design and foil together through the laminator, applying heat and pressure
4. Allow to cool and remove the foil to reveal the decorated design

USAGE RECOMMENDATIONS FOR NORMAL LAMINATION

• Turn off and unplug the laminator before handling it
• Place the laminating film roll on the upper shaft, and on the lower if double-sided lamination
  • Single-sided lamination: adhesive side of the film facing down
  • Double-sided lamination:
    • Upper roll: adhesive side facing down
    • Lower roll: adhesive side facing up
• Pass the end of the film between the heating and pressure rollers, following the manual that comes with the machine
• Use the guides and tension bars to keep the film taut and wrinkle-free
• Turn on the laminator and perform a test to ensure uniform lamination
