Item Number: COMPASS
Engineered to provide years of service in a Small Business, School or mid-volume Copy/Print Shop with little or no maintenance. The unique self-tensioning system automatically maintains the proper film tension throughout the job to permit wrinkle-free laminating without any operator input. An automatic "Snooze" function powers down the laminator after 30 minutes to save energy and the microprocessor control prevents the laminator from operating until the optimum laminating temperature is reached. Product Summary:
- Heated Silicone rubber laminating rollers: flexible enough to provide a good edge seal and firm enough to offer a good surface seal. High silicone content insures a much longer average roller life.
- Lamination pressure: The rubber rollers are spring-loaded and preset to ensure correct and even lamination pressure.
- Variable speed: The laminator operates at any speed up to 15 feet per minute. Thicker films are generally applied better at mid-range to lower speeds, while 1.5 mil film should be applied at mid-range to higher speeds.
- LCD temperature display: makes it easy to set and maintain the correct temperature. The indicator light inside the heat switch comes on as the machine warms up. At set temperature the indicator light turns off.
- Simple controls: Conveniently placed switches provide a compact, reliable control pad. Icons and international symbols are used for controls and safety warnings.
- Easy threading: Threading can be the most difficult aspect of using a laminator, so the Compass has built in threading aids. Once the upper and lower webs of film have been threaded through the machine, bottom idler threading is automatic when the operator closes the feed tray into its operating position.
- Forced air-cooling: This allows laminating with thicker films. Without a cooling system, thicker films will warp or ripple because they are still too hot when they come out the back of the laminator. The Compass has a more effective cooling system than any other machine in its class.
- Ease of cleaning: The silicone rubber rollers of the laminator should be cleaned regularly.
- Attached safety shield: The polycarbonate shield is clear so operators can see their work. It’s fixed to the machine and placed so they’ll naturally put it in the guard position before laminating.
- Ease of maintenance: The Compass is made to last. However, some items on a laminator do wear out. Even the high-quality silicone rubber used in the rollers will lose flexibility over time. Extensive use may wear out the rollers, or an operator may cut a roller by accident
- Reverse: can be invaluable at times to help avoid problems or clear miss feeds.
- Removable power cord: prevents unauthorized usage without locking away the whole machine.
- Film supply sensor: informs you when film supply is low
