Lamination is the process of sealing a document (id card, letter, certificate, photograph, poster) or fabric between two layers of plastic film (one layer for single sided lamination). An extended version of laminating called "over laminating", is the process of mounting a laminated item to a "substrate" (stiff foam board, wood or metal backing) overlaid with laminating film.Roll laminators and Pouch laminators use heat to encase an item in plastic film. Tape laminators apply film with an adhesive backing . Dry Mount Press laminators use vacuum pressure instead of physical contact to apply film to high quality prints. These laminators are also ideal for transferring images to fabric.

Check processing machines imprint signatures, print dollar amounts, apply endorsement stamps, and enforce security measures to protect and restrict access to checks. These machines are ideal for accounts payable and payroll operations processing large volumes of checks where efficiency and secure fiscal control is essential.

Paper Punches and Paper Drills are machines for drilling holes through large stacks of paper or punching holes in small stacks or a few sheets. The difference lies in the process that is used to achieve the result. Paper drills are powered by a motor and can handle larger stacks of paper. Paper punches are manual devices for putting holes in smaller quantities of paper and are physically smaller in size. Custom Hole Punches can be designed for your specific requirement

Manual or Electric Paper Cutters and Trimmers allow you to cut large stacks of paper (from 50 to 1000 sheets of 20# bond) in a variety of sizes. Stack Paper Cutters are operated manually, electrically or hydraulically. Manual paper cutting machines require the user to physically lift and press down on the cutting lever or blade handle to effect cutting. Electric cutters have an automatic motor driven cutting operation and some are programmable. Trimmers are divided into three categories: foam board trimmers, guillotine trimmers and rotary trimmers. Foam board trimmers cut standard, rigid, Sintra or other types of foam boards up to 1.18" in thickness. Guillotine paper trimmers are strictly manual, while rotary trimmers may be manual or electric. Newer generation electric rotary trimmers are now available with auto paper advance. The main difference between paper cutters and paper trimmers is that cutters allow you to cut a greater number of sheets of paper at one time by pushing a blade straight through your material, while trimmers allow you to cut a smaller number of different types of stock, including poster boards, mat boards, foam mounting boards, plastic, film, negatives, tissue and textiles usually by a blade slicing at an angle (guillotine or rotary).
