What are the three most critical parts of the laminating machine? The laminating machine is divided into three parts: gluing, drying tunnel and hot pressing.
1. The glue part. The gluing part is equipped with an adjusting device to adjust the amount of gluing to meet the requirements of different printed parts. The gluing roller uses rubber roller or steel roller.
2. Part of the drying tunnel. The drying tunnel is generally 2 ~ 3m long. The drying tunnel of the laminating machine is equipped with infrared lamps and electric fans. There is also a high-power electric heating tube and exhaust fan on the upper part of the drying path of the automatic laminating machine. The temperature can be adjusted to dry the adhesive and eliminate the exhaust gas.
3. Hot pressing part. This part is the key to laminating, which is directly related to the adhesion fastness of the laminating product. The principle of hot pressing is that the adhesive can quickly infiltrate and penetrate into the surface layer of the printed matter in the molten state, so as to obtain a strong bonding interface layer. The hot pressing part is composed of a group of rollers. One of the hollow metal rollers is equipped with an electric heating tube, and the temperature can be controlled automatically. The pressure of this group of rollers can be adjusted.
The laminating of the laminating machine, also known as laminating, also known as "over-plastic", "laminating", "sticking film", etc., refers to the transparent plastic film is pasted on the surface of the printed matter by hot pressing to protect The effect of increasing gloss. Laminating film has been widely used in book covers, picture albums, commemorative albums, postcards, product manuals, calendars and maps for surface binding and protection. At present, the common lamination packaging products are carton, carton, tote bag, fertilizer bag, seed bag, sticker, etc.
The main function of laminating processing with laminating machine: after the printed product is coated, the thin and transparent plastic film makes the printed product smoother and brighter, the graphics and text are more vivid, and the embossed printed film More three-dimensional. At the same time, the mechanical strength, water resistance, moisture resistance, stain resistance, wear resistance, folding resistance, chemical corrosion resistance and other properties of the printed product after coating are greatly improved, thereby extending the service life of the printed product.
The vibration of the laminator mechanism is one of the important factors that affect the accuracy of the laminating machine. With the rapid development of the printing and packaging industry at home and abroad, all kinds of printing equipment and post-press processing equipment have developed by leaps and bounds. In the post-press processing technology, the laminating technology is widely used. With the continuous improvement of customers' requirements for laminating technology, a high-precision laminating machine is urgently needed.
In the existing domestic laminating equipment, it is difficult to improve the accuracy as the main reason restricting its development. In the post-press processing process, the laminating technology is widely used, and the market urgently needs high-speed, high-precision laminating machines. On the basis of analysis and testing technology principles, based on the signal test analysis system software, a more complete laminator vibration test program was selected, and the vibration of the main mechanism components of the laminator was tested. The results show that the vibration at the wallboard is the largest, followed by the front gauge shaft, the side gauge shaft moves more smoothly, and the vibration is the smallest.

The automatic laminating machine is aimed at the surface lamination of printed products, such as books, posters, color box packaging, handbags, etc. In response to the continuous improvement of global environmental awareness, oily lamination will be gradually replaced by water-based lamination. Next, let's talk about the use skills of the automatic laminating machine.
(1) Hot pressing roller
The hot pressing roller is a hollow roller with an electric heating device inside. The temperature of the roller is controlled by sensors and instruments on the console. The surface state and thermal power density of the hot pressing roller have a great influence on the quality of the coated product. The general lamination process requires a hot pressing temperature of 60-80 ° C and an area heat flow of 2.5-4.5W / cm2.
(2) Rubber pressure roller
Press the coated product against the heat press roller with a certain pressure to make it solidify and stick firmly. The contact pressure during compounding is closely related to the adhesive strength and appearance quality, and is generally 15.0 to 25.0 mPa. Rubber pressure rollers work under high temperature for a long time, but also keep the roller surface smooth, smooth, small lateral deformation, good tear resistance and peeling, so silicone rubber with better tear resistance is mostly used.
(3) Pressure adjustment mechanism
It is used to adjust the pressure between the heat pressure roller and the rubber pressure roller. The pressure adjustment mechanism can use simple eccentric mechanism, eccentric cam mechanism, screw rod, nut mechanism, etc .; Adopt liquid (gas) pressure type pressure adjustment mechanism.
After the laminator is adjusted, the pre-processed printed matter is sent to the paper feeding mechanism for lamination, and samples are taken for inspection. Use a small amount of printed matter to inspect before laminating, so as not to cause a lot of waste. After passing the inspection, mass production can be carried out. The method of laminating inspection of laminating machine is as follows:
1. Tear off the corner of the proof sheet completed by the lamination in the width direction, press and hold the paper, and tear it all in the width direction. After tearing off all the tears, if the graphic imprint on the surface of the printed matter follows the glue layer and the fiber of the paper Transferred to the film, it means that the printed matter and the film adhere well, and it is a qualified product.
2. Put the film-coated sample into the drying tunnel and bake at 60-65 degrees Celsius for about 30 minutes. If there is no blistering, no delamination and no wrinkles will occur, and it is a qualified product. After baking, the tear film should not be separated from the paper intact.
3. Immerse the sample in cold water for 1 hour and take it out. If the plastic film is not separated from the printed product, it is a qualified product.
4. Put the sample on the creasing machine and apply pressure. If the pressed uneven part does not delaminate, it is a qualified product.
