  • Page 3: Preface-General Description

    Preface-General Description Preface Your Advanced Greig Laminators, Inc. (AGL) laminator is a finely engineered and designed piece of equipment. Standard equipment includes a 1 HP DC drive (variable and reversible), air operated brake and clutch, plus an air-operated laminating section with easily adjustable spacer system for controlled laminating nip opening.
  • Page 4: Chapter 1 Installation

    Installation Selecting Area Select an area that has a smooth, level surface for the laminator to set on, this will allow for easier maneuverability of the machine if it requires moving later on. The area should be large enough to allow an operator ample room to properly handle your largest product on the infeed and outfeed sides of the laminator.
  • Page 5: Electrical Connection

    Installation Electrical Connection Refer to the Electrical Requirements under Specifications for the proper requirements for your laminator. All connections to components and terminal blocks should be checked for tightness before initial startup. This will help avoid and electrical problems caused by connections that may have loosened due to vibration during shipping.

  • Page 7: Chapter 3 Safety

    Safety IMPORTANT READ THIS SECTION BEFORE OPERATING YOUR LAMINATOR General Machine Safety The following messages are written here for your safety, all operators and others around the laminator should read, understand and follow these messages. 1. Read and understand all the safety instructions. 2.
  • Page 8: Chapter 4 Operation

    Operation General 1. Power: A red and yellow power switch switches the main power on and off. The switch is labeled clearly so the operator can tell if the power is on or off. 2. Reset: A reset button is used to start the machine initially and restart the machine after an E-stop condition has occurred.
  • Page 9: Right Hand Control Panel, Figure 1

    Operation Right Hand Control Panel The right hand control panel looks like the figure below. Upper Roll Heater Controls: Two position switch turns heater for upper roll on and off. The temperature controller allows the operator to set a desired temperature for the process.
  • Page 10: Left Hand Control Panel, Figure 2

    Operation Left Hand Control Panel The left hand control panel looks like the figure below. Upper Rear Station: The 2 position switch turns the brake on and off. The regulator adjusts the air pressure to the brake changing the web tension. The gauge indicates air pressure which allows for repeatable results.
  • Page 11: Rear Control Panel, Figure 3

    Operation Rear Control Panel Drive Control: STOP button stops the drive from turning thus stopping the rolls. Pull Roller Control: A 2 position switch open and closes the pull rolls. The regulator adjusts the air pressure to the cylinders and the gauge indicates air pressure which allows for repeatable results.
  • Page 12: Laminator Setup

    Operation Laminator Setup Your laminator has been designed to make the setup and lamination process as easy and repeatable as possible, however, there will be techniques that make this phase easier that you will only learn by using the machine. Do not get frustrated if the setup process takes longer than you expected, the process will get quicker and easier the more you use your laminator.
  • Page 13: Encapsulation Process

    Operation Encapsulation Process 1. Load thermal film on the rear upper and lower unwind stations. Turn the selector switch on these two stations to “Off”. 2. Set the shim wheels to “0”, place a piece of feeder stock into the nip rolls with plenty of stock hanging out the front.
  • Page 14: Pressure Sensitive Process

    Operation Pressure Sensitive Process 1. Load film on the rear upper unwind station. Turn the selector switch to that station to “Off”. 2. Set the shim wheels to “0”, place a piece of feeder stock into the nip rolls with plenty of stock hanging out the front.
  • Page 15: Process Output Trouble Shooting

    Operation Process Output Trouble Shooting Straight waves in output Pull roll creating too much tension Decrease clutch air pressure Film not cooling fast enough Slow feed rate down and turn on cooling system. Waves on one side of output Nip “zero” setting may be incorrect Check nip setting and adjust if necessary.
  • Page 16 Operation Wrinkles in Product 1. Check the adhesive stock for wrinkles while operating. If wrinkles exist, this is a manufacturing material defect, and must be cut out of the roll. A laminator will not correct material defects. 2. String the web straight and square between the unwind and the windup shafts. If it is not straight and square, the tension will not be even across the web and will cause wrinkling.

  • Page 19: Chapter 5 Maintenance

    Maintenance Maintenance As a result of years of experience, refined engineering and construction techniques, very little time need be lost to maintenance. However, regular maintenance will keep your laminator operating at its optimum level. Removing the enclosure covers to work on machine exposes person to electrocution and moving parts hazard.
  • Page 20: Roller Open And Close Rate

    Maintenance Roller open and close rate The rollers must open and close evenly to prevent excessive wear on the cylinders and bearings. This rate is set at the factory, but can be adjusted in the field. Follow the procedure below to adjust either the pull rolls or nip rolls.
  • Page 23: Chapter 6 Warranty

    Warranty Warranty and Conditions AGL warrants all models of the laminator’s product line manufactured to be free from defects in workmanship and materials for a period of one year with the exception of operator caused damage, or surface abrasions to the laminating rolls or other obvious caused damage.
