VISIONLAM 800 - Multi-technology laminator

The VISIONLAM 800 is a very efficient and flexible solution for production of medium to long runs of premium flexible packaging. Its hallmark technical solutions include the choice of shafted or shaftless automatic winders that enable non-stop lamination, and the possibility to adapt the length of the tunnel’s sections and temperature to the required production needs. BOBST customers can use any trolley of their BOBST laminators which are interchangeable, including the flexo trolley. The duplex laminator is available in triplex or tandem (also as a future upgrade) configuration to match the converter’s diversification of its flexible packaging applications.

High flexibility and productivity 

• Handles a wide variety of  film and paper substrate and consumable types,  both conventional  and those designed for recycling, at speeds of up to 450 m/min.
• Multi-trolley design for different process technologies: 
  • Solvent-based and water-based dry  lamination
  • Solventless lamination 
  • In register cold seal coating on pre-printed substrates 
  • In-register printing of one additional color

• Ideal configuration for efficient operation with minimum downtime  for medium to long run production. 

Premium product quality and efficient operation

• Flawless lamination quality with all substrate types, thicknesses and web combinations. Excellent performance at speed with critical substrates such as thin alu-foil, metallized films, and thin stretchable materials 
• The optimal web transportation system by motorized rollers in the flat drying tunnel avoids breakages and scratches on critical substrates.  
• Widening and diversification of the converter's applications thanks to the possibility to extend the tunnel length up to three sections, each with independently adjustable temperature. Solvent residue is minimized, the control of web tension is maintained 
• Latest trolley design delivering coating uniformity and visual appeal with all applications
• Unique cost saving solution of BOBST flexo trolley: less adhesive required and up to 50% less solvent 
• Motorized pressure roller for more accurate and uniform adhesive metering, ideal for multi-roller and reverse coating technology 
• Exclusive Registron® Mark-to-Mark  technology for in-register cold seal  and lacquer coating, enabling real time reading and coating detection, avoiding costly non-conformities.

Operator-friendly, automated and connected 

• Operator-friendly design: 
  • Lateral trolley extraction
  • Optimum accessibility for easy and fast web infeed 
  • The operator can easily and rapidly switch between jobs 
  • Easier and quicker cleaning and maintenance operations, considerably reducing machine downtime

• Fully integrated HMI for setting, display and storage of individual job working parameters in easy to recall job recipes
• Connectivity features for full production and quality control.
