For print shops transitioning to large format or specializing in
materials like vehicle wrap vinyl, the choice of a laminator often
comes down to budget versus features. The MF1700-B6, a Manual Cold
Laminator with an unexpected twist—a Pneumatic Lifting System—is
bridging this gap.
While the manual cold lamination capacity offers significant cost
savings and unparalleled control over your media speed, the
pneumatic lift is where the true professional advantage lies.
The Downside of Traditional Manual Systems (Hand Wheels):
Traditional manual laminators use hand wheels to adjust the roller
height and pressure. This system is prone to human error; if the
left and right wheels are not turned the same amount, the rollers
become unparallel. This pressure imbalance results in:
- Wrinkles and Bubbles: Uneven pressure distribution leads to
adhesive failure.
- Wasted Material: Print media is costly. One bad laminate run is
often a total loss.
- Slow Setup Times: Operators must constantly check and recalibrate
the roller gap.
The MF1700-B6 Pneumatic Solution:
| Feature Highlight | Professional Advantage |
| High-Performance 130mm Silicone Rollers | Maximum Material Contact: Our oversized, anti-adhesive silicone
rollers are thicker and heavier than standard models, applying
consistent, uniform pressure across the entire width. This ensures
a superior, long-lasting adhesive bond and eliminates the dreaded
'orange peel' effect and tiny air pockets (silvering). |
| Pneumatic Roller Lifting System | Instant, Consistent Control: Forget uneven hand-wheel adjustments.
The pneumatic lift provides a lightning-fast, perfectly parallel
roller gap setting with the push of a button. This is crucial for
mounting thick substrates (like foam board) and guarantees
identical pressure application for high-volume, repeatable
projects. |
| Manual Operation, Industrial Output | Total Process Mastery: The MF1700-B6 gives the operator complete
speed and tension control, ensuring meticulous alignment on
high-value prints. With no motor or complex electrical systems for
the rolling function, you benefit from lower power consumption,
minimal maintenance, and unmatched long-term reliability. |
| Durable ABS Body Design | Sleek Protection & Longevity: The all-new, robust ABS exterior not
only gives the MF1700-B6 a modern, professional appearance but also
protects the precision internal mechanics from dust and workshop
debris, ensuring extended machine life and easy cleaning. |
The MF1700-B6 leverages the reliability of a high-end system's
compressed air cylinder (pneumatic) to control the roller gap. This
ensures the 130mm silicon rollers lift and descend with perfect,
synchronized precision. The result is instant, even pressure every
single time, drastically cutting setup time, eliminating material
waste, and guaranteeing a flawless finish, regardless of the print
substrate's thickness.
