The FlashGuard 18R6 Heavy-Duty Laminator is ideal for print shops, schools, and corporate offices. With a rugged metal housing and
user-friendly features, it easily laminates and protects maps, charts, photos, documents, signs, menus, IDs, and more.
The 18R6 features 6 heavy-duty rollers for fast, reliable sealing: 4 heating rollers and 2 cooling rollers. The all-metal housing is durable and
stays cool to the touch, thanks to the special internal cooling system. For ideal laminating, the variable temperature control goes up to 320
degrees F (160 degrees C). For temperature sensitive documents, users can choose the cold lamination function, which seals specially-
designed pressure sensitive laminating pouches. Each laminator ships with a starter pack of 20 FG-3 premium 3 mil laminating pouches.
Operation is simple using the intuitive graphics-based LCD control panel: simply set the temperature and speed to match the laminating
pouch and document thickness. A handy speed/temperature chart is printed on the top of the laminator for quick reference. The control
panel features graphic indicators for hot/cold mode, speed, temperature, cooling fan, and roller operation, as well the ability to store 1 or 2
custom settings for frequently run projects.
The 18R6 handles pouches up to 18” wide, up to 14 mil, with a maximum laminating thickness of up to 3mm. The wide feed opening is
ideal for larger projects like maps, charts, and posters. With an operating speed of up to 47 inches per minute, users can complete projects
in a flash. Formax offers 3 mil and 5 mil laminating pouches for standard letter size 8.5” x 11” projects.
Designed with an anti-jam rollers, it also includes a reverse button, and a dedicated cool-down cycle to prevent damage to the rollers.
For protecting and preserving documents, photos, charts and more, the FlashGuard 18R6 is a durable, affordable, high-quality solution.
