Hi Folks,
First time posting, new member, looking for some recommendations based on personal experiences.
I have been browsing the boards, and have read and seen everyone else's opinions on the various other lower cost laminators, the rolls roller, etc. We are not looking for these laminators. Specifically the ones listed above in the title. What do you have? What is your experience with them? How is service and support with your equipment, if needed? What do you like about it? What do you hate about it?
1/3 of our business is wraps, and would really love something to do roll to roll application, top heat assist is nice but not necessary. ~90% of what we output is digitally printed and laminated, we do use it from time to time to mount larger substrates, 10 to 20+ft lexan faces, etc. Having the option for multiple feed rollers and take ups is necessary as we are constantly switching the media accordingly.
We currently have a Ledco Econocraft 60 - which has been around since the shop started 9 years ago. We've replaced the rollers on it, and have made as many adjustments as we can to it, have had a Ledco service tech here going through it with us through all the adjustments and cannot get rid of the boat wake that occurs about 12 ft in on both sides. We've made every adjustment possible. I'm not looking for a fix to this problem, just some feedback on the options listed above. As we are definitely moving forward to pick up a new one soon. Not interested in RS either. A sister shop of ours has one and it's a royal pain to work with - no pun intended.
Thanks in advance for the feedback and other comparable options.
Adam
