💡 Expert Pro Tips for the Akiles Prolam 330
While cheaper models offer “High” or “Low” settings, the ProLam 330 uses a gradual temperature control knob and an electronic circuit board. This allows you to fine-tune the heat for specific pouch thicknesses (from 3 mil to 10 mil), preventing document warping.
Why Choose the Akiles ProLam Plus 330?
The Akiles ProLam Plus 330 is a professional-grade 13-inch pouch laminator designed to bridge the gap between basic office equipment and industrial machines. Here is why it is the preferred choice for print shops, schools, and professional offices:
1. Photo-Ready 4-Roller System
Unlike entry-level machines that often leave bubbles or waves, the ProLam 330 uses a heavy-duty 4-roller system (two heated and two cold). This ensures balanced heat distribution and a crystal-clear, professional finish on sensitive items like:
High-gloss photographs
Ink-jet printouts
Professional marketing materials
2. Carrier-Free Lamination
Equipped with high-grade silicon rollers, the ProLam 330 allows you to laminate without a cardboard carrier. This streamlines your workflow and ensures a more efficient transfer of heat directly to the pouch, resulting in a tighter, more durable seal.
3. Precision Temperature Control
While cheaper models offer only “High” or “Low” settings, this machine features a gradual temperature control knob backed by a high-quality electronic circuit board. This allows you to fine-tune the heat for specific pouch thicknesses—from 3 mil to 10 mil—preventing document warping or under-sealing.
4. Commercial-Grade Durability
Built for longevity, the ProLam 330 features a dual-color metal housing and internal metal gears. It is engineered to withstand the rigors of frequent use, making it a reliable workhorse for any organization requiring dependable document protection.
5. Advanced Jam Prevention
Feeding a document incorrectly can ruin a project. The built-in forward/reverse switch allows for immediate corrective action, letting you back out a document before it becomes a permanent jam.
The ProLam Plus series uses a heated roller system that allows for balanced heat distribution during the laminating process.
- This system guarantees crystal clear and bubble-free results even when you laminate photos and ink-jet printouts.
- Metal Cover (Dual Color): For a longer lasting lifespan & a more professional, heavy duty look.
• Silicon Rollers: Provide the flexibility of laminating with or without a carrier.
• Metal Gears: To guarantee strength and durability.
• Ready Light / Power Light / Power Switch
• Forward / Reverse Switch: Allows easy corrective action for jams. i.e. when document is improperly fed or temperature was set too high.
• Heat / Cold Switch: Offers cold lamination function.
• Electronic Circuit (PCB) & Gradual Temperature Control: For a fast, consistent and easy fine-tuning of temperature. - Ideal when operator requires frequent changing of pouch thickness, pouch composition or when laminating different materials.
• 13” Throat: Perfect for feeding letter sized lamination pouches.
• Dual Heat System (heated rollers & heat plate combination): For a more efficient lamination at lower temperatures. Allows for a perfect lamination of all standard pouch thicknesses (from 3 mils up to 10 mils).
• Photo Ready: Heated-rollers allow a balanced heat distribution during laminating process, thus guaranteeing a crystal clear, bubble-free laminating result even when you laminate photos & ink-jet printouts.
