Using ALM Systems for single side lamination

One of the increasingly popular film applications is to use a soft touch laminate like the ALM Elegant Silk Matte film for single sided lamination projects. The key to this application is to use the ALM 1.2 mil Elegant Silk Matte and using a liner film on the underside of the product your are laminating. Because the 1.2 mil Elegant Silk Matte film is a PET based film, there are some important keys to successfully running it in single sided applications.

• Use none to very little tension on the ESM and under film. Apply only enough tension to keep film from wrinkling.
• Remove idler roller from bottom to reduce tension of under film.
• Run liner film on the bottom and the ESM laminate on the top
• Paper being used for single side laminatation should be no less than 80 lb. cover weight stock, the heavier the stock the better. 

Since the ALM does not  have de curling devices the above steps will provide a nearly flat sheet for most perfect bound cover weight sheets and card stock that is used for business or post cards.

 Note: These same techniques should also be used when running the single sided nylon film as well.
