Tamerica TCC2700 27” Roll Laminator Review

Wednesday, September 1st, 2010

Tamerica / Tahsin TCC2700 27" Roll LaminatorThere are few laminators out there capable of handling 10 mil laminating film under $2,000. If you need a sturdy roll laminator that is both affordable and able to handle 10 mil film, you should take a look at the Tamerica TCC2700 27″ roll laminator. We have one of these on our showroom floor and this is my review.

The TCC2700 is made by Tamerica and is often referred to by its old name, the “Tahsin” TCC2700. This laminator is 27-inches wide and is designed to laminate paper, posters, signs and other material. You will find this laminator in schools, print shops and offices.

One of the biggest perks with this laminator is its ability to use laminating film from 1.5 to 10 mils thick. The price is also a huge plus. This is the least expensive roll laminator we offer capable of laminating film up to 10 mils thick. It can also be used to laminate material up to 3/16-inch thick. This laminator uses a 1″ diameter core, which is most common in a laminator of this size.

It is common (and often correct) to think that if something costs less, the quality is less as well. This isn’t the case with the Tamerica TCC2700. This roll laminator has great reputation with our customers and a great track record when it comes to malfunctions and issues.

This laminator handles laminating jobs well. The heated silicon rollers, adjustable temperature and adjustable speed (11″ to 38″ per minute) help the film turn out crystal clear. Heated rollers also help cut down on ripples, waves and bubbles in film.

Not only can this machine be used to laminate larger items, but it can also be used to laminate several smaller items at once. The mandrels can support up to a 1,000-foot roll of 1.5 mil film. That is impressive.

The TCC2700 also features:

  • Reverse motor capabilities.
  • Film trimmer.
  • UL approved.
  • Roller separator
  • Emergency motor shutoff.
  • Ready light with audible alert
  • An adjustable feed guide.
  • Spring loaded tension knobs.

These features and many others are just a few reasons why the Tamerica TCC2700 may be the right laminator for you. I personally like using it and consider it to be a great deal.

Tamerica C-Lam 3306 Pouch Laminator Review

Tuesday, June 22nd, 2010

Tamerica C-Lam 3306 Pouch LaminatorAre you looking for a heavy-duty pouch laminator capable of commercial volume laminating? Finding a good pouch laminator that will hold up under rigourous daily use is tough. Have you considered the Tamerica C-Lam 3306 pouch laminator? If not, here are a few reasons why you may want to use it.

The Tamerica C-Lam 3306 pouch laminator is a heavy-duty laminator that features a total of six rollers. In case you didn’t know, the more rollers the better. Four of the rollers are heated and two are cold. The heated rollers help evenly distribute heat, while the cold rollers help remove heat and smooth things out. The end result is a great looking finish.

Built in sensors help adjust the temperature of the rollers, making sure the heat doesn’t get too hot or too cold. This helps cut down on the need to run things through the laminator twice and prevents costly damage from badly laminated material. This also eliminates cloudiness and bubbles in the film.

If you need a fast laminator, the C-Lam 3306 is one of the fastest in its class. With many laminators, you sacrifice quality when you speed up the process. This is not the case with the C-Lam.

In order to save energy, the Tamerica C-Lam has an auto shut-off feature. This means if you leave the laminator unattended for more than 30 minutes, it will automatically shut off. This isn’t only good for safety, but also saves you on electricity.

The control interface is very easy to use. It is completely digital and allows you to set it up for use with a variety of different lamination films. The Tamerica C-Lam can be used with 3, 5, 7 and 10 mil thick films without a problem. It can also be used with glossy and matte film. The temperature on the C-Lam can also be adjusted to accommodate different types of film.

One of my favorite features of the Tamerica C-Lam is the ability to get to the rollers. The outer shell is easy to remove. This allows access to the six rollers. The top three rollers are on a hinge an can be lifted to gain easy access to the inside of the laminator. This is great for removing jams and for cleaning purposes.

If you need a tough reliable pouch laminator, you may want to consider using the Tamerica C-Lam 3306 laminating machine found here. The C-Lam is also available in an eight-roller system called the C-Lam 3308 found here. You can find our entire selection of pouch laminating machines here.
