About our compan
y....
The primary goal of PLS is to provide laminating machinery that produces excellent and consistent
results at affordable prices. We are able to accomplish this goal through innovative design and
engineering practices. The foundation of our system is our patented heated roller, the heart of the
lamination process. This roller design not only produces superior finished product but also results in
considerable cost savings to our customers. We are a vertically integrated company as we utilize our
own fully automated machining facilities, as well as in-house powder coating and roller manufacturing
operation. We strive to keep machine designs as simple as possible while providing superior finished
product results, excellent reliability, and ease of operation and maintenance. We work very hard to find
or design and manufacture components that are precisely matched to their given task. Finally, we
believe that maintenance and repair parts should not be a major profit center for our company.
The Revolution Series heated roller system...
Our patented heated rollers were designed to provide a superior finish, good durability, and ease of
cleaning, while still being affordable. Our roller design exceeds all finish and quality capabilities seen in
competitive heat shoe laminators; such as, but not limited to, superior adhesion, negligible stretch,
exclusion of scratches, faster warm up, more capabilities in film and substrate use, more user friendly
and nylon, polypropylene and vinyl capable. Class for class our technology exceeds all performance
capabilities in competitive heated silicone rollers. Another benefit of this design is ultra-fast warm up
times--from room temperature to 250 deg. “F” in about five minutes--high performance models are
ready to run in less than 4 minutes. This means that you can turn your new machines on when you need
them... and off when not in use. The laminating process utilizes a considerable amount of energy
inherent in all processes requiring considerable amounts of heat. And remember, if a commercial
laminators putting out thousands of Btu*s of heat when not in actual use, your air conditioning system is
putting out even more energy in a futile attempt to cool your facility. This wasted energy can add up to
hundreds of dollars a year in unnecessary utility costs. The Revolution Series rollers are covered with
the finest silicone rubber available that is specifically formulated for our precise application. Final
grinding and polishing is accomplished with computerized equipment to insure absolute accuracy and
consistency of the finished roller.
