laminator level.

nator infeed rollers, which in turn drive the
card between the two white transfer rollers,

of laminate, cut from the top and bottom cas-
settes shortly after the previous card passed
through the laminator.

They are then permanently bonded to the card by a pair of heated rollers applying pressure
to the top and bottom surfaces.
