Hot or cold lamination – advice needed please?
Hi everyone,
I’ve been using a cold laminator for the last couple of years which sometimes gives me a bit of grief applying Oraguard 290 cast laminate. I’m hopefully going to be purchasing a 54 inch printer/cutter in the next couple of weeks and was wondering if the Chinese laminators which are basically just two powered rollers are suitable for applying Oraguard 215 and 290 laminates without heat?
While speaking to a few people regarding laminating I have been given contradicting advice. Are cold laminators suitable for most vinyl/laminate combos?
The one that I have been using is again basically just two powered 800mm rollers manufactured by Hot Press. This laminator is great for applying Oraguard 200 laminate but I want to use polymeric and cast vinyls and I’m not sure if it’s my technique that’s not up to scratch or the machinery.
Any help on this issue would be great.
Cheers
Ewan
