Formax - Formax FlashGuard 18R6

The FlashGuard 18R6 Heavy-Duty Laminator is ideal for print shops, schools, and corporate offices. With a rugged metal housing and user-friendly features, it easily laminates and protects maps, charts, photos, documents, signs, menus, IDs, and more.

The 18R6 features 6 heavy-duty rollers for fast, reliable sealing: 4 heat rollers and 2 cooling rollers. The all-metal housing is durable and stays cool to the touch, thanks to the special internal cooling system. For ideal laminating, the variable temperature control goes up to 320 degrees F (160 degrees C). For temperature sensitive documents, users can choose the cold lamination function, which seals specially-designed pressure sensitive laminating pouches.

The 18R6 handles pouches up to 18" wide, up to 14 mil, with a maximum laminating thickness of up to 3 mm. The wide feed opening is ideal for larger projects like maps, charts, and posters. With an operating speed of up to 47 inches per minute, users can complete projects in a flash.

Operation is simple using the intuitive graphics-based LCD control panel: simply set the temperature and speed to match the laminating pouch and document thickness. A handy speed/temperature chart is printed on the top of the laminator for quick reference. The control panel features graphic indicators for hot/cold mode, speed, temperature, cooling fan, and roller operation, as well the ability to store 1 or 2 custom settings for frequently run projects.

Designed with anti-jam rollers, it also includes a reverse button, and a dedicated cool-down cycle to prevent damage to the rollers.

For protecting and preserving documents, photos, charts and more, the FlashGuard 18R6 is a durable, affordable, high-quality solution.
