4. INITIAL THREADING OF THE ALM3220 (cont’d)
Minimizing the curl may avoid problems as shown
below. If film is allowed to curl it will curl up or down
into interior areas of the machine. This will results in
errors and possible damage to the machine.
NOTE: DOUBLE SIDED LAMINATION ONLY: The proper tension set with new film rolls will likely be too
great as film rolls get smaller with use. Too much tension will result in noise, poor performance and
increased wear on the heat chambers. Also, as film rolls reduce in diameter due to use, curling may
begin. If curling is allowed to continue film may curl back up inside the ALM3220 and causes jams and
wraparounds. If so, re-adjusting the tension controllers may be necessary.
Other results of poor tension controller settings:
A) The corner of the laminated film is folded.
B) Lamination scrap comes out with laminated film.
