Five Reasons to Choose Cold Lamination

A lot of people, when they think about laminating machines picture huge roll laminators such as you might see in a school or business, or maybe the little pouch unit that created their name badge. These are very commonly seen, but that doesn't mean that they are always the best solution for your laminating needs. Cold lamination is emerging as a great choice for a lot of applications, and here are five reasons why.

1. The first reason you may want to consider cold lamination is that it offers you a bit more versatility than hot lamination. Using cold lamination, for instance, you can create such fun and unique items as magnets and stickers. While that may not be in your immediate plans, such items are great marketing devices, and you never know when they will come in handy for fund raising or trade shows and the like. There are cold lamination machines that are able to laminate one side of an item while applying adhesive to the other side. That is very handy making signs as well.
2. Cold lamination is without a doubt, safer than hot lamination. Because there is no heat or electricity involved in many cases, there is little risk of fire or of someone touching the wrong place on the machine and accidentally burning themselves. This, of course, reduces any potential liability, or loss of work days due to misuse or injury. It also makes cold lamination an excellent choice for use by children.
3. Cold lamination is just a lot easier of a process than hot lamination. There are so many steps involved with hot lamination, such as figuring how hot you want the machine to be set, and how quickly you want the items to be run through the machine. On top of that, you need to pay close attention to the relative thickness of your document and if you are using the correct type of film for your project. On the other hand the cold laminating process generally consists of turning the handle. It is really just as simple as that.
4. The vast majority of cold laminating machines do not require electrical power. This of course means that you will be able to use them just about anywhere you can take the machine. Plus, one other great thing about cold lamination is that the machines are usually small enough to take just about anywhere. You can take them to a scrapbooking or crafting party, or keep them stashed out of sight when you aren't using them. This sort of convenience alone is a big reason to consider a cold laminating machine.
5. With cold lamination you can say goodbye to problems such as curling or melting when the documents you are laminating are thin or especially large. Also, you will never have to worry about the document that you are laminating (such as photos, signs or other heat sensitive papers) becoming damaged.

As we stated above, you will find that cold lamination is not ideal for every project, but for a great deal of applications, it is the safer, more portable, and more versatile solution.

Adhesive $68.51 Adhesive or glue is a compound in a liquid or semiliquid state that adheres or bonds items together. Adhesives may come from either natural or synthetic sources. Some modern adhesives are extremely strong, and are becoming increasingly important in modern construction and industry. The types of materials that can be bonded using adhesives are virtually limitless, but they are especially useful for bonding thin materials. Adhesives usually require a controlled temperature to cure or set. They can be electrically and thermally conductive or nonconductive. The earliest date for a simple glue is 200,000 BC and for a compound glue 70,000 BC.

PressureSensitive Adhesive $97.19 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA, self adhesive, self stick adhesive) is adhesive which forms a bond when pressure is applied to marry the adhesive with the adherend. No solvent, water, or heat is needed to activate the adhesive. It is used in pressure sensitive tapes, labels, note pads, automobile trim, and a wide variety of other products. As the name pressure sensitive indicates, the degree of bond is influenced by the amount of pressure which is used to apply the adhesive to the surface. Surface factors such as smoothness, surface energy, removal of contaminants, etc. are also important to proper bonding. PSAs are usually designed to form a bond and hold properly at room temperatures. PSAs typically reduce or lose their tack at cold temperatures and reduce their shear holding ability at high temperatures; specialty adhesives are made to function at high or low temperatures. It is important to choose an adhesive formulation which is designed for its intended use conditions. Author: Surhone, Lambert M./ Tennoe, Mariam T./ Henssonow, Susan F.
