Businesses have an economical way of laminating a single letter sized document
July 15th, 2008
Most laminators use a Laminating Film on the top and the bottom and the two layers stick to each other in places where material does not need to be laminated. A laminator is ideal for a small or home office for light to moderate. Most are perfect for personal or professional medium-duty projects. If you ask almost any school secretary, they can tell you horror stories about a teacher or parent volunteer loading their laminator backwards and wrapping the film around the rollers. Suddenly schools, prints shops and businesses have an economical way of laminating a single letter sized document without wasting a lot of laminating film. Additionally, the smaller footprint of this machine makes it easier to fit when counter space is at a premium. The first problem that you run into when trying to do single sided lamination on a Traditional Roll Laminator is that if you aren't careful you will end up leaving adhesive and wrapping the film around the rollers of your laminator. Some individuals choose to run two rolls of single sided laminating film at one time. They then place their book covers, prints and materials back to back and laminate two pieces at one time. Some users choose to run a laminating roll that is a little bit more narrow than the documents that they are running through it. These individuals then overlap their documents slightly as they feed them into the laminator. final major problem faced by individuals who try to do single sided lamination with their existing roll laminator involves the availability of supplies. Currently GBC Digital Lay Flat laminating film is only available on either a 2.25" or 3" core. Some people choose to run a roll of Kraft Paper on the bottom roller of their laminator. The single sided laminating film will adhere to the Kraft Paper anywhere that there isn't a document.
