Laminators

[Marie]

Mounting a 4x8 print still continues to be an issue. We have a Daige cold laminator. Even with using center hinge method, the large prints get creases. Is anyone really happy with their laminator? Any recommendations?

I have an AGL Maxim laminator which is a wonderful machine.

Thanks for your input!

I have used many laminators, but by far one of the worst I've worked with is the Royal Soverign. Just stay away from that. But I remember one I worked on when I first started was a Eagle it was a hot/cold lam, great machine. Good luck.

Seal, Royal Sovereign or Drytac. 3 brands I have used with success.

Another Seal fan - Mount 4x8's all day long without a hitch.

Do you think that heat-assist is a big plus in a laminator?

Marie, I also have a Daige Solo 54" laminator, and it is the biggest piece of crap on two rollers - do a search and you will see a thread about it

Best way to accelerate a Daige laminator:

Good luck to you.

You can have my AGL Maxim...

...if you can pry it from my cold dead hands!

I love this machine.
