Laminator lines

[Jaykon]

Hey Everybody,

Recently purchased a Sigmont 65H to replace our well loved older laminator. Overall decent but running into one issue that I haven't dealt with before. When you start up a line in the laminate forms where at the point where the backing separates from the backing. This leads to a ton of wasted material to keep the line off the print and not to mention makes it impossible to stop at any point during a run. I have re spooled, adjusted tension and tried everything I can think of. Currently I am using IJ35C with matching 3M laminate so off brand mis matched media. We run the same combo on our smaller laminator and have never had this issue. Can anybody suggest something to try?

Thanks

J

Whats the line line that you're seeing? Is it causing small bubbles, or is it that there is silvering on the rest of the print, except for that spot where the roll started or stopped? Does the line go away with heat or after sitting for a bit?
