Product Information

Moving from the countertop to the floor, a laminate floor roller is the best way to ensure the flooring is adhered to and without bubbles.

Building an external barn door is a great DIY project. Since your construction doesn’t need to be picture perfect this style of door can be built and used on just about any outdoor structure. In this guide learn basic construction techniques and hardware to use outdoors.

Our laminating roller range

The majority of offices, schools and commercial premises in the UK use laminate technology primarily to protect and embellish key documents for presentation and display purposes, but it is also possible to laminate many other types of documents (as well as non-paper items and surfaces). Strictly speaking, lamination technically refers to the process of applying a plastic cover to the surface face of a document or other item. Two-sided lamination, where the plastic cover forms a complete seal all around the document on both the front and reverse sides, is more properly known as ‘encapsulation’. Another key consideration will be how long you want your laminated items to last, as this will impact on the type of lamination pouches or films you should buy, and thus ultimately on what sort of machine you’ll need to meet your production demands. Hot and Cold

While the initial investment in a top-of-the-line laminator can be much higher than for a budget brand, it may actually work out saving you money in the long run if you’re not constantly having to wait around for slower laminating processes and ramp-up times, or frequently having to re-run the process due to a higher incidence of misalignments and bubbling that you tend to get with very cheap laminators. Rubber molding is a process of transforming uncured rubber or an elastomer into a usable product by transferring, compressing, or injecting raw rubber material into a metal mold cavity... Rubber Gaskets The key decisions you’ll need to make when choosing a suitable laminator for office use are what size to go for, and also how often you’ll likely be using it. Both A3 and A4 varieties can come at a wide range of prices and specs, but for the most part, the more expensive versions will offer one very key feature over more cost-effective models: speed. Many models intended for more intensive day-to-day school or office use come with handy time-saving features such as built-in memory functions, meaning you don’t have to re-programme the machine each time you want to use it. Industrial/Heavy UseOnce manufactured, for lamination there must typically be three sets of rollers: a drive roller, a guide roller and a laminating roller. There must be a 1:1:1 ratio of these three roller types. The guide roller and the laminating roller rotate in direct correlation to the rotation of the drive roller. Conversely, a 3mm pouch will result in a much more lightweight document that’s easier to work with, but also far more bendable and less robustly protected against damage or environmental challenges.

Polyurethane rollers are cylindrical rollers covered by a layer of elastomer material called polyurethane. Depending on the application, the inner roller core is prone to scratches, dents, corrosion, and other types of damage... Polyurethane MoldingWhen using a pouch-style laminator to seal plastic wallets or films together around an item, the document and its pouch are usually assembled first outside the machine. In some cases, these are then placed inside an additional protective cardboard cover, known as a carrier. Pouch Laminators - This is the most commonly used type of desktop-type laminating machine on a day-to-day basis, and it can be found in a wide range of standard office environments. Prior to feeding a document into a clear plastic pouch or wallet lined with adhesive, pouch laminators must be heated to optimal temperatures. The sealed cover is then formed by pressing the two together under hot rollers A laminate counter roller is typically hand-held and has one roller with a handle up to 14″ long. However, if your job requires more extensive counters and bigger jobs, a two or 3-wheeled roller with a more oversized handle is a good option.
