Kept under wraps until the opening day of Fespa 2007, SEAL Graphics unveiled two high-performance liquid laminators.
The new AquaSEAL 60 and 80UV Pro machines are designed to be the workhorses of the print finishing industry, typically high volume sign and display houses using inkjet and UV flatbed printers.These heavy-duty UV coaters deliver automated protective lamination on sheet, board or roll-fed substrates up to 76.2mm thick and widths of 1524mm and 2032mm respectively.
Among the unique features of these machines are: an air knife to eliminate roller wraps; large diameter coating rollers to avoid roll deflection; adjustable coat weight between 7 and 20 microns and a manually adjustable nip with calibrated display for repeatable accuracy.
Both the AquaSEAL 60 and 80UV Pro operate at variable speeds of up to 32 metres per second and, of course, the liquid laminate is instantly cured when passing under the inbuilt UV dryer.
Being UV cured also means there is no necessity to clean down on a daily basis the three switchable 19 litre lacquer reservoirs.
