Lamination is one way to add a
professional look to all of your company's documents, while also
protecting them from damage. If you and your co-workers laminate often,
you will definitely want to take a look at the brand new Fellowes
Voyager Large Office Laminator. This is a machine that was designed to
be used frequently while providing flawless results every time it's
used. In fact, this is one product that is so feature-rich, it's almost
unbelievable. Here is a run-down of the Voyager's fantastic features,
as well as a peek at its very few limitations.
Strengths:
This is a machine that has a feed opening that's 12.5
inches wide. Not only will you be able to laminate legal- and
letter-sized documents, larger items such as signs can be processed by
this device.
Pouches up to 10 mil thick can be run through the Voyager.
The
Voyager will be ready for use after a quick warm-up time of 4 minutes.
You'll hear a beep and see a green light go on so you'll know when you
can begin laminating. It is capable of laminating an 8.5" x 11"
document within 30 seconds, so this is the device to choose if speed is
an important consideration.
The laminator is totally controlled by an LCD touch screen located in the center of the machine.
The
Voyager has AutoLam technology that enables it to automatically adjust
its speed and temperature depending on the thickness of your document.
This means you won't have to worry about choosing the wrong setting or
waiting for the machine to warm up and cool down when laminating
documents of different thicknesses.
Each unit is equipped
with four rollers so your documents will be laminated perfectly,
without the appearance of bubbles, wrinkles, or cloudiness.
The heat given off by this device will stay in the unit, thanks to walls that are double-insulated.
One
of the most advanced features of this machine is the CleanMe sensor.
This component can detect when the laminator needs to be cleaned and
when it does, it will let you know.
As with many of Fellowes'
laminators, the Voyager will shut off after a period of non-use. It
also has an automatic reverse function to help you remove jammed
pouches.
This machine has a wonderfully unique clamshell
design. You can open the machine up to perform maintenance, clean up
any dirt or excess adhesive, and deal with jams.
Finally,
each laminator comes with a small pack of supplies. This starter pack
contains 10 3-mil pouches so you'll be able to see what this laminator
can really do just as soon as you get it back to your office.
Weaknesses:
Despite the machine's AutoLam feature, cold lamination
isn't an option with this machine. If you need to laminate
heat-sensitive items, you can either choose a different device or keep
a supply of self-sealing pouches on hand.
This machine isn't compatible with mounting boards.
The Voyager is going to take up a lot of room because its dimensions are 5.125" (height) x 24.8215" (width) x 9.0625" (depth).
While it's unfortunate that the Fellowes Voyager lacks the ability to
accommodate mounting boards and perform cold lamination, this is
nonetheless a wonderful, technically advanced device that should fit
the needs of any office needing a high-quality laminator for frequent
use.
