Thermal Laminating...
1. Be sure all laminator parts (i.e. safety shield, feed table, etc.) are in their proper
positions and the laminating film is loaded correctly.
2. Set the temperatures according to the film manufacturer’s recommendations for the film
you have chosen. A low-melt film is recommended for inkjet prints. Keep in mind that the
temperature at which you will laminate will vary with different medias and laminating
speeds. See the chart below for approximate temperature ranges. The laminator will take
approximately 25-30 minutes to reach operating temperature. The temperatures will be
indicated on the LED display.
3 mil low melt 190°-210°F
5 mil low melt 200°-210°F
10 mil low melt 210°-220°F
3. Your new MightyLam 2700HC has dual digital heat controllers. Users can easily adjust
the set temperature to achieve the best quality lamination independently top and bottom.
The controller has been calibrated to accurately display roller temperature in the laminating
range.
The heater switches on the left side frame activates in the controllers. When the switch is
turned on the controller will flash a two letter code and then display the current roller
temperature. When cold, the temperature displayed on the controllers may be different
than the actual ambient temperature to account for correction in the higher temperature
range. When the heater switch is turned on the controller will send power to the heaters,
provided the set temperature is higher than ambient temperature.
When power is being sent to the heaters the controller will illuminate a small red indicator
light in the lower right hand corner of the display. The light goes out when the set
temperature is reached. Power to the heaters cycles on and off when the roller temperature
falls below set temperature during lamination.
4. To determine the set temperature, with the heater switch activated and the current
temperature displayed, press and hold down either the up or down arrow for 3-4 seconds.
The display will change and flash the set temperature and “SU” alternately. After 10
seconds the display will return to the current roller temperature.
