Ledco Educator
Laminator

Ledco Educator

Before designing this machine, Ledco asked teachers and media specialists what they wanted in a laminator. They said, "ease of use, reliability, value, and low maintenance." And that's what Ledco designed into the Educator.

Ledco started with their best all-around laminator. They simplified the controls and created an improved film path to eliminate many of the operator errors common to thermal laminators. They made the machine so reliable it comes with a 2-year manufacturer's warranty. And they include an instructional video to go with the operators' manual in every Educator.

Posters, dry erase charts, flash cards, bulletin board graphics, games, visuals, and teaching aids of all kinds represent a tremendous investment, whether they were purchased or made by teachers. Protecting and enhancing these educational materials with lamination allows them to last for years instead of being replaced every few weeks or months. The Educator offers the control needed to laminate different types of material using different films with a minimum of operator adjustments.

Features that contribute to the quality of lamination and dependability of the Educator include:

• The preset lamination pressure and speed makes the machine easier to use and eliminates many possible sources of problems.

• Enclosed laminating and pull rollers help you avoid time-consuming jams and wrap-arounds.

• The forced air cooling allows laminating with 3 and 5 mil films, as well as the 1.5 mil film often used by schools. Without a film cooling system, thicker films will warp and ripple because they are still hot and partly melted when they come out the back of the laminator.

• The fixed-position lamination rollers provide a stable platform for uniform roll pressure. This will provide the highest quality lamination available in a school laminator.

• Attached safety shield. The safety shield is fixed to the machine and is placed so that the operator will naturally put it in the guard position before laminating. The shield is made of clear polycarbonate so users can see their work and will not be tempted to try to laminate without the shield in the safe position.

• The reverse switch can be essential at times to help avoid problems or clear misfeeds.

• Adjustable heat control. If you have used a kitchen oven, you'll feel comfortable with our heat control dial. It allows you to use films from 1.2 to 5 mils thick.

• The supply roll tension knobs give you the control you need to get wrinkle-free lamination without complicating your work

• The separate safety cutter provides a safe means of cutting work off the back of the machine. This eliminates the usual tear bar which may cut fingers or snag clothing.

• Made in the U.S.A. means quality, better service, and faster parts availability.
