MECA Solutions produces heated and chilled laminator rolls

The type of laminating application determines whether heated or chilled laminator rolls are appropriate. There are four basic types of lamination:

Dry lamination – A bonding agent is dissolved into water or a solvent and applied to one of the webs before being evaporated in a drying oven. Heated laminator rolls are used to apply pressure and improve the bond strength of the laminate.

Wet lamination – The bonding agent is in a liquid state when the webs are joined together. This type of lamination is common with flexible packaging.

Wax lamination – The bonding agent of wax or hot melt is applied to one of the two substrates. This process is common with paper-to-paper or paper-to-aluminum foil laminates.

Solventless lamination – A specific type of adhesive is created by two components reacting with each other.

MECA Solutions offers a wide range of cylindrical products, including corrugating adhesive rolls and laminator rolls that can be customized for your application.
