The FOLIANT Taurus 530 NG is a very compact and fast industrial laminating machine, constructed for nonstop work. It is equipped with a suction feeder, high-speed bump separator and many options like a Non-sticky Roller, Pallet Stacker or Foliant Foiler. Due to its format and performance, the machine is suitable for all jobs – all kinds of digitally printed sheets and high volumes of offset printed sheets size 19.7” x 27.8” for lamination. The machine’s maximum speed is up to 131 ft./min., while performance is 3,400 sheets per hour of 19.7” x 27.8 portrait (white paper 200 gsm).
LAMINATOR
The FOLIANT Taurus 530 NG laminator’s maximum sheet size is 20.8” x 29.5”, extendable to 39.3” with an optional XL Module. The minimum sheet size is 12.6” x 9.8”. The FOLIANT Taurus 530 NG machine is a single-sided thermal industrial laminator, laminating 115 – 600 gsm paper. It has a unique “U” crossbar for perfect lamination of these sensitive sheets.
The laminating unit is equipped with an adjustable twin de-curl unit:
- With a de-curl blade for strong de-curling effect. The intensity is adjusted by the angle of the blade.
- With a de-curl roller for a weaker effect. The back of the printed sheet is protected during the de-curling because the paper is not
rubbing against the roller. It is rotating together with it.
The roll of film is mounted on an air shaft that allows for very convenient, easy and precise film positioning. The shaft capacity is up to 9,842’ of the 24 - 42 microns film. The film holder unit is equipped with a trim slitter and a perforating wheel.
The laminating process is made between two laminating rollers - a highly polished chrome roller and a lower hard rubber pressure roller. The laminating roller is heated with a dry electric system inside the roller which consists of several rings mounted directly to the inner wall of the roller. This ensures that heat transfer is perfect even at maximum speed. A sensitive temperature is also inside the roller as close to the surface as possible. The warm up time is less than 10 minutes. The pressure is pneumatically adjustable, with an extra independent control knob for each roller edge.
The machine is fitted with OMRON Programmable Logic Controllers which controls all of the machine’s functions. The PLC system includes many automation items for easy control of the machine and reliable lamination. The whole machine is controlled by an interactive, easy-to-understand icon touchscreen panel – no language version is needed.
