The LA-160W laminator is heat-assisted with a maximum temperature of 140˚F (60˚C). This heat assistance improves overlaminate film adhesion, particularly to surfaces printed with UV ink, and reduces the potential for silvering effect created by pressure sensitive overlaminates.
Fast throughput speeds, with laminating speeds of up to 295 linear inches per minute – or nearly five inches per second – means that the finishing can keep up with production and reduce bottlenecks.
The laminator includes all functions on one operation panel, with easy access to the pressure handle and foot pedal.With the addition of a take-up reel, it is easy for one person to control the entire process.
Designed specifically for use with UV inks and their LA Series laminators, Mimaki Vision Laminate 310 (Gloss) film offers fine finishing with a glossy feel while maintaining color brightness of the print. This high quality, heat assisted, overlaminate is also a cost-effective alternative to cold laminating films.
There will be two models available (initailly in the USA), being: the 62.2-inch (158cm) LA-160W model and the 66.9-inch (170cm) model. Mimaki Vision Laminate 310 will also be available in two sizes: 310-137 (54-inch) and 310-152 (60-inch).
