Semi Automatic Manual Laminating Machine 63 Inch Pneumatic Laminator With Auto Locked Shafts

In the demanding world of wide-format printing, speed, reliability, and precision are non-negotiable. Whether you are running a busy sign shop or an in-house graphics department, your laminator must be a dependable workhorse.

The MF1700-M5 wide format laminator is engineered to be just that. Combining a classic, robust design with clever, modern features, this 63-inch machine offers the perfect blend of manual control and semi-automatic efficiency. It's built to cover your most common finishing requirements—from vinyl and banners to heat-assist cold laminating—with consistently high-quality, bubble-free results.

Many competitors focus on fully automated features, but the MF1700-M5 champions the proven reliability of the Classic Hand Crank system. This key feature gives operators a level of granular control over height and pressure that digital controls often lack.

• Customizable Pressure:
  The hand crank allows you to precisely dial in the pressure needed for different substrates, ensuring an even, side-to-side nip across the full 63-inch width.
• Built to Last:
  Paired with the Unique Two-Rails Lifting System, the hand-crank mechanism provides a durable, smooth, and stable roller movement. This heavy-duty construction ensures the machine maintains its stability and precision even after years of high-volume use.

Why this matters to you: For materials that require a delicate touch or non-standard pressure settings, the manual control provides superior finishing and reduces expensive material waste.

Time spent loading and switching films is time lost on production. This is where the MF1700-M5 truly sets itself apart from older models and budget competitors: its innovative material handling system.

The machine features Auto-Locked and Exchangeable Roll Shafts. This intelligent design allows for:

• Fast Loading:
  Simply drop in a new media roll—the shaft automatically grips and locks the core.
• Effortless Changeovers:
  Swapping between lamination and mounting films is quicker and requires less effort, drastically improving your workflow efficiency.

This feature is a major selling point for shops that frequently switch between applications, offering an immediate return on investment by maximizing uptime.

Quality output is the bottom line, and the MF1700-M5 includes several features designed for flawless results:

• Premium 130mm Silicon Rollers:
  The larger, heavy-duty diameter rollers provide superior heat and pressure distribution, which is critical for achieving a consistent, bubble-free, and wrinkle-free finish across the full width. (Competitor models often use smaller rollers, which can compromise quality over time.)
• Advanced Anti-Static String:
  For high-speed lamination, static buildup is a common enemy that attracts dust and causes marks. The integrated Anti-Static String is an efficient and simple solution that neutralizes static, ensuring a clean, clear lamination every time.
• Heat-Assist Capability:
  The top roller is heated (up to 60°C/140°F - check manufacturer specs) to activate the adhesive on cold-laminating films, which results in better clarity and a stronger bond, particularly in colder environments.

The MF1700-M5 manual laminator is the smart choice for professionals seeking the reliability of a manually controlled, heavy-duty machine with the added benefit of semi-automatic features like the auto-locked shafts. It’s a foundational piece of equipment that provides the control you need, the speed you want, and the quality your customers demand.
