Vivid expands laminator range

Vivid has launched a range of wide-format laminating and mounting units, which will be sold under the Easymount brand.

The machines are aimed at the commercial sign, print and graphics markets, and are suitable for mounting prints to boards and applying cold laminates along with application tapes and double-sided adhesives and vinyls.

The top-of-the-range model is the 2m-per-minute DH-1180, a 1,180mm-wide unit that uses double heat rollers that enable it to encapsulate as well as laminate and mount products up to 1,180mm wide. It also features a two-pass process for simultaneous mounting and laminating.

The entry-level machines in the Easymount series are the 995 desk-top EM-720 and EM-880, which can handle products up to 10mm thick and 720mm and 880mm wide respectively.

The mid-range production models are the 2m-per-minute freestanding 1,180mm wide EM-1180 and 1,580mm wide EM-1580, and the 1.8m-per-minute EM-1880, which can handle products up to 1,880mm wide and 25mm thick.

The EM-1180 and the EM-1580 (pictured) are also available as SH models with single heat rollers.
