A laminating machine is a device used to apply a protective layer of plastic over documents, photos, or other materials. This process helps to preserve the items, making them more durable and resistant to wear, moisture, and dirt. Laminating machines come in various sizes and types, including pouch laminators and roll laminators, catering to different needs and volumes of work. The laminating process typically involves placing the item inside a plastic pouch or between two sheets of plastic film, which is then heated and pressed together. This creates a sealed, protective layer around the item, enhancing its appearance and longevity. Laminating machines are commonly used in offices, schools, and homes for preserving important documents and creating professional-looking materials.
