Manual lamination is a common method used in many small printing jobs and personal creations. The flexibility of cold lamination film makes manual operation extremely simple. Its soft texture allows users to easily unfold the cold lamination film and cut it according to the shape and size of the printed matter. During the lamination process, the flexible cold lamination film can naturally fit the surface of the printed matter, and even if it encounters some minor undulations or unevenness, it can adapt through its own elasticity, avoiding the generation of bubbles and wrinkles.
Take hand-painted posters as an example. When the creator completes a beautiful poster, he uses cold lamination film for manual lamination. Due to the flexibility of cold lamination film, the creator can easily cover it on the poster and gently smooth it with his hands, so that the cold lamination film and the poster are perfectly combined. The whole process does not require complicated tools and skills. Even those who try lamination for the first time can quickly get started and easily achieve a uniform and smooth lamination effect.
For large-scale commercial printing jobs, cold lamination machines are commonly used laminating equipment. The flexibility of the cold laminating film complements the working principle of the cold laminating machine, enabling efficient and accurate lamination. The roller system of the cold laminating machine evenly covers the cold laminating film on the printed matter by applying appropriate pressure and temperature. The flexibility of the cold laminating film enables it to pass smoothly through the various components of the cold laminating machine without jamming or breaking.
In advertising production companies, a large number of printed materials such as posters and flyers need to be processed every day. Using cold laminating film with flexible characteristics and laminating with a cold laminating machine can greatly improve work efficiency. Cold laminating film can be quickly and accurately attached to the surface of printed matter, ensuring that each printed matter can obtain high-quality lamination effects. Moreover, due to the flexibility of the cold laminating film, the position can be automatically adjusted during the laminating process, reducing the need for manual intervention and further improving the accuracy of production.
In actual operation, sometimes the laminating position is inaccurate or the cold laminating film needs to be replaced. The flexibility of the cold laminating film makes adjustment and re-lamination easy and feasible. When the lamination position is found to be deviated, the user can easily peel off the cold lamination film from the printed matter without causing any damage to the printed matter. This is because the flexible cold lamination film has moderate adhesion to the printed matter, which can be firmly attached to the printed matter and easily separated when needed.
For example, in exhibitions, it is sometimes necessary to adjust the display method of the poster according to the on-site layout. If the poster has been laminated, but the position or direction needs to be changed, it can be easily achieved by using a flexible cold lamination film. The staff can peel off the cold lamination film, readjust the position of the poster, and then laminate it again. The whole process is simple and fast, and will not cause any damage to the poster.
During the display, transportation and storage of printed matters, it is inevitable that they will be subject to external impact forces. The flexibility of the cold lamination film enables it to absorb and disperse these impact forces like a cushion to protect the printed matter from damage. When the printed matter is collided or squeezed, the flexible cold lamination film will undergo elastic deformation, converting the impact force into its own deformation energy, thereby reducing the direct impact on the printed matter.
During logistics transportation, packaged printed products may be subject to bumps and collisions. If a flexible cold laminating film is used for lamination, the cold laminating film can effectively buffer these external forces and protect the surface of the printed product from scratches and damage. Even if the packaging is slightly deformed, the cold laminating film can maintain a close fit with the printed product to ensure the safety of the printed product.
Printed products come in a variety of shapes and sizes, from flat paper to canvas with a certain curvature, from large billboards to small business cards. The flexibility of cold laminating film enables it to adapt to a variety of shapes and sizes, providing all-round protection for printed products. Flexible cold laminating film can be bent and stretched according to the shape of the printed product to ensure that it can fit tightly with every part of the printed product.
For three-dimensional paintings in art galleries, traditional protective materials may not be able to fully fit the curved surface of the painting. With its flexibility, cold laminating film can perfectly wrap around the surface of the painting, providing no-dead-angle protection for the painting. Whether it is the front, side or back of the painting, the cold laminating film can fit tightly to prevent dust, stains and other pollutants from entering, keeping the painting clean and beautiful.
In the use environment of printed materials, various chemicals such as detergents, inks, etc. may be exposed. These chemicals may corrode and damage the surface of the printed material. The flexibility of the cold laminating film enables it to form a dense protective layer to prevent chemicals from directly contacting the printed material. The flexible cold laminating film has good sealing properties and can effectively block the penetration of chemicals, protecting the color and details of the printed material from being affected.
In an office environment, documents may often come into contact with various office supplies and detergents. If the documents are not protected by lamination, they are easily corroded by these chemicals, resulting in problems such as blurred handwriting and yellowing of paper. After laminating with a flexible cold laminating film, the documents are like wearing a layer of ""protective clothing"", which can resist the invasion of chemicals and extend the service life of the documents.
The flexibility of the cold laminating film mainly comes from its material properties and processing technology. As the basic material of cold laminating film, transparent PVC (polyvinyl chloride) has good flexibility and plasticity. The interaction force between PVC molecular chains is moderate, which makes the material have certain strength and can be elastically deformed under external force. The special bonding process further enhances the flexibility of cold laminating film. Through reasonable formula and process control, a good combination is formed between adhesive and PVC material, which not only ensures the overall performance of cold laminating film, but also makes it have excellent flexibility.
