Typical of all Ledco laminators, the Professor has been engineered to provide years of service with minimal maintenance. It laminates with up to 10 mil film and mounts materials up to 3/16" thick. Its unique self-threading feature reduces the anxiety often associated with threading a laminator. The hot roll design permits simultaneous mounting and laminating using mounting boards with attached overlaminate. Of course, it carries Ledco's 2-year parts and labor warranty.

The Professor laminator has all of the features and benefits of the well-known Educator, plus additional function and performance capabilities beyond expectations for equipment in this price range. It is the perfect finishing tool for companies and institutions transitioning from outsourcing to bringing work in-house as well as for:

• Schools
• Daycare Centers
• Law Offices (Courtroom Documents)
• Map Dealers
• Color Labs
• Government Offices
• Libraries
• Hospitals
• Prisons
• Small Print Shops
• Design Studios

Features

• Variable Speed. Operates at any speed up to 15 feet per minute. Thicker films are generally applied better at mid-range to lower speeds, while 1.5 mil film should be applied at mid-range to higher speeds.
• LCD temperature display. Makes it easy to set and maintain the correct temperature. The indicator light inside the heat switch comes on as the machine warms up; at set temperature the indicator light turns off.
• Simple controls. Conveniently placed switches provide a compact, reliable control pad. Icons and international symbols are used for controls and safety warnings.
• Easy threading. Threading can be the most difficult aspect of using a laminator, so the Professor has built-in threading aids. Once the upper and lower webs of film have been threaded through the machine, bottom idler threading is automatic when the operator closes the feed tray into its operating position.
• Forced air cooling. Allows laminating with thicker films. Without a cooling system, thicker films will warp or ripple because they are still too hot when they come out the back of the laminator. The Professor has a more effective cooling system than any other machine in its class.
• Ease of cleaning. The silicone rubber rollers of the laminator should be cleaned regularly.
• Attached safety shield. The polycarbonate shield is clear so operators can see their work. It's fixed to the machine and placed so they'll naturally put it in the guard position before laminating.
• Lamination pressure. The rubber rollers are spring-loaded and preset to ensure correct and even lamination pressure.
• Supply roll tension controls. Supply roll tension is easy to adjust by simply tightening or loosening the tension control knobs on the supply roll mandrels.
• Ease of maintenance. The Professor is made to last. However, some items on a laminator do wear out. Even the high-quality silicone rubber used in the rollers will lose flexibility over time. Extensive use may wear out the rollers or an operator may cut a roller by accident.
• Reverse switch. Can be invaluable at times to help avoid problems or clear misfeeds.
