Suggestions for a Laminator

Love our AGL. Just works. No fuss, no waste. Small jobs, full rolls. Easy to load, flat rollers, heat assist. Built like a tank. Heavy and stable for mounting. Pays for itself in jobs that didn't go into the bin. AGL also has amazing tech support if you need it. And you get full schematics and parts lists so you can maintain the machine if something should (very unlikely) break. Rollers can be re-sleeved domestically. Pneumatic pressure is fast and safe.


What model AGL do you have?

We bought a USTech type laminator years ago and haven't had any major issues with it. Not going to say that it is as good as a major brand, but I don't know that it isn't either. I'm sure that when you don't feed in the vinyl straight in any machine that it will get off through a run.

I have a SEAL 54EL which is 54" but it's been amazing after all these years, so easy to use. I recommend that in the 64" series. Don't get anything with heat, most sign shops don't use heat, it's a waste of money, stick with cold only. I paid $5,500 for mine brand new delivered.

Hello, we just got a Kala Laminator Arkane. It is very user friendly, if you have staff turn over it is easy to train on. Take ups turn with the rollers. It has a solid unibody frame style. It is a medium price, but saves a lot of headaches. It has been a SGIA product of the year. We got it through Karl at QMLS.

I have GMP EXCELAM-1400COLD/RS and mounted cheap takep system on it. Use it for transfer film mounting and cold laminating. I am satisfied with it. But, maybe you think about Sheild laminator, it is Neolt brand.
