The Educator is a heat shoe laminator mainly designed for use in educational institutions. It has preset lamination pressure and speed for simplified operator use as well as adjustable heat control which allows for multiple thicknesses of film to be run. Driven front and back rollers are enclosed to help prevent jams and wrap-arounds, the reverse switch located on the front panel can be essential at times to help avoid problems or clear misfeeds, and supply roll tension controls help produce wrinkle-free lamination. All these features make the Educator a reliable, easy-to-use, low maintenance laminator.
