Dependable "Workhorse" Laminator - 25"
|
|
 |
Customers use these kinds of
terms to describe these heavy duty machines:
- Most dependable
- Most productive
- Trouble-free
- Easy to use
- Versatile
- Easy to maintain
There are Ledco machines 15 years and older that are still
going strong. There are owners with several machines that have produced for years with no
maintenance other than oiling, adjusting and replacing "normal wear" parts. In
fact, we hear from appreciative owners every week!
They say a Ledco absorbs tremendous usage with amazing
durability, produces high-quality lamination, and does jobs it isn't supposed to do, such
as single-sided laminating.
Years ago a Ledco distributor coined the name
"Workhorse" for the smaller HD laminators. Although never adopted by Ledco, many
owners still use the name "Workhorse". That's because the word so aptly
describes these extraordinarily reliable heavy-duty laminators. As more than one owners has
said, "They just keep going."
Who can use a Workhorse? Any graphics or finishing shop
that needs a true commercial machine ... trade laminators, photo finishers, printers,
government or school support centers, binders & finishers, military installations,
hospitals, reprographers, map makers, publishers and manufacturers.
The HD-25 machines are unique because of their toughness
and because no other manufacturer offers an auto feeder designed specifically for each of
their smaller commercial machines. There is also a feeder for the HD-38. With the addition
of a third-party auto cutter, a rugged and fully automatic laminating system can be
assembled for many thousands of dollars less than any other commercial auto-system on the
market. |

Here are the features that
contribute to making a machine people naturally call a "Workhorse".
- Intelligent heat controllers
These heat controllers display both the set temperature and the actual temperature. The
microprocessor in the control quickly learns to anticipate the heat demand of each job and
keeps the actual temperature within a few degrees of the set temperature.
- Laminating and pull rollers
These rollers are covered with quality silicone rubber for superior release quality,
higher lamination quality, and easier cleaning. The laminating rollers and pull rollers
are interchangeable.
- Removable heat shoes
These shoes are teflon coated to reduce film abrasion. They are easily unplugged and
removed to clean or replace the laminating rollers.
- Built-in retractable slitters
These slitters save an enormous amount of cutting time by trimming away side scrap during
the lamination process. The two heads can be adjusted independently with great precision.
- Dual tension knobs
The dual tension knobs (clutches) for each supply roll mandrel are easy to use and provide
as little or as much tension as needed to keep work wrinkle-free.
- Forced air cooling
Cooling is essential when running thicker films, because the lamination needs to be cooled
to get good results.
- Easy access controls
The controls are conveniently located and grouped for effective operation.
- Safety guard
A safety guard is built into the feed tray to help insure it will always be in place when
laminating.
- Upper and lower rollers are driven
Both the upper and lower rollers are driven to minimize the wrinkling or curling that can
occur when only one roller is driven.
- Standard precision feed tray
The standard precision feed tray has both left and right side guides and can be replaced
with the power feed tray in seconds.
- Made in the U.S.A.
The HD-25 is made in the U.S.A., making parts a lot closer to you should they be needed.

- Stands. Built of heavy duty tubular steel.
Designed to place unit at optimum feeding height, and to provide a secure base.
- Upper fan assembly. When running thicker
films, additional cooling capacity permits work to be run at a higher speed.
- High-speed motor takes the top speed to 50
FPM for use only with thinner films.
- Scrap rewind. Removes liner material from
pressure sensitive and dry resist films.
- Footage counter. For accurate measurement
of film usage.
- Additional slitter heads. For multiple-up
work.

Low-Melt laminating films
click
here for information
Low melt laminating films is the primary choice for most laminating
jobs. With a 40 to 50 degree lower activation temperature they can be used with most ink
jet, lithographed, silk screened, photo-graphic, electrostatic or other reproduction
methods.
