The Hot Transfer Presses offer high production throughput by optimising the cycle –time. The panels are bonded between high quality hardened steel plates with no registration pins being required, this allows the plates to be resin free ensuring defect free bonding (no indents etc.) and minimising down-time for cleaning.
Both presses have very good Vacuum facilities, allowing void-free lamination for heavy copper weights and Flexible Coverlay bonding.
The high bonding temperature gives the possibility to laminate a wide range of materials.
Panels from every batch are measured for thickness using a digital checker.
