Hot/Cold Lamination Small Format Laminator With 5m/Min Max Laminating Speed And 350mm Max Laminating Width
The small format laminator market has experienced substantial growth over the past decade. Businesses in the signage, printing, packaging, and photo finishing sectors increasingly demand compact yet versatile laminators capable of delivering high-quality finishes with minimal waste.
Global industrial trends show that lamination equipment adoption is expanding, particularly where operators require both hot and cold lamination capabilities. Traditional single-function laminators often create bottlenecks, especially in workflows handling heat-sensitive prints or adhesive films.
Investments in compact machines capable of 5 meters per minute maximum lamination speed and 350mm working width provide both flexibility and efficiency. Such equipment allows smaller workshops to compete on turnaround time and product quality without occupying excessive floor space or requiring specialized training.
The hot/cold laminator is engineered with advanced dual-mode operation. Key features include:
Operating at a maximum speed of 5 m/min and supporting a maximum lamination width of 350 mm, the machine provides fast throughput while accommodating standard small-format materials. This combination is ideal for sign boards, photo prints, and packaging inserts, where precision and speed are equally important.
Equipped with precision-engineered rollers, the laminator ensures uniform pressure distribution across the film. Independent tension adjustment prevents material stretching, wrinkling, or bubbling, even at top speed. The rollers’ high-friction silicone coating improves adhesion, especially for glossy or textured substrates.
The device supports instant switching between thermal and pressure-sensitive lamination. Hot mode reaches up to 140 °C, activating adhesives efficiently for PVC, PET, and paper films. Cold mode relies solely on pressure, ideal for UV prints, sensitive vinyls, and coated materials.
The small format laminator features a rigid metal frame, anti-deformation chassis, and precise roller bearings. These design choices ensure long-term stability and repeatable lamination quality, even under continuous multi-hour operation.
