Glenro’s flatbed laminating systems offer a compact and affordable proven solution for manufacturers of many laminated products. Our flatbed technology is designed to optimize your product quality and profitability by developing your laminating process. Flatbed lamination is a new method of lamination for roll goods and sheets that utilizes dry adhesive systems (hot melts) that do not require long drying/curing tunnels to process. Glenro’s flatbed laminating systems laminate a wide variety of materials such as fabric, nonwovens, metal foils, foams, composite panels and wood products in a surprisingly small space. With extended dwell time under heat and pressure conditions, flatbed lamination produces the highest quality bonding due to the high PT2 value – Pressure + Time and Temperature. This simultaneous application of heat and pressure to activate the hot melt adhesive makes flatbed lamination so successful in producing high performance bonding. In comparison to conventional laminating, which segregates the heating and pressure components of the process, the Glenro flatbed laminator system combines the two essential components of heat and pressure into one simultaneous process, resulting in excellent bonding with low adhesive usage. Let us show you how a Glenro flatbed laminating system can boost your product quality, processing speed, and profitability.
