activated or pressure-sensitive) with an adhesive backing

Film:

A synonym for laminate. The material used in the

laminating and encapsulating process

Heat-Activated Films:

Films with an adhesive that is activated when heat is

applied. Once applied to an image the adhesive forms a

strong bond adhering the laminate and the image

together.

In-Feed:

The side of the laminator from which images are fed

Leader-Board:

A piece of foam board (about 4’ x 4”) used to push

films into the nip. Also used for mounting or pre-

coating boards to prevent adhesive from getting onto

the rollers and sealing edges.

LED:

Light Emitting Diode

Mil:

Refers to the thickness of the laminate in 1/1000ths of

an inch. One Mil is equal to .0254mm or 25 micron.

Mounting:

emerge

Pre-Coating:

The process of coating a substrate with an adhesive

mounting film onto which an image can be mounted.

Press:

The amount of force in distance put on anything that

passes between the top and bottom rollers.

Pressure-Sensitive Films:

Films with an adhesive that is activated when pressure is

applied, forming a bond between the protective laminate

and the surface of the image. Used primarily for fast

mounting applications and recommended for heat-

sensitive thermal and photographic prints.

Release Liner:

The backing on a pressure-sensitive film or mounting

adhesive. After peeling the release liner off, the adhesive
