SD-310/320 Straight Line Laminator

High-precision, manual-assist tape lamination for straight-line applications.

The SD-310/320 Straight Line Laminator is a proven, production-ready manual process assist solution designed to apply pressure-sensitive tapes accurately and consistently along straight paths. Operators simply push the product through the unit, where tape is applied with controlled pressure and precise alignment before being cut to length.

Built for industrial environments where consistency, quality, and throughput matter, the SD-310/320 removes variability from manual tape application—delivering repeatable results without the complexity of full automation.

Overview

Consistent Straight-Line Tape Application—Made Simple

By guiding the product through a straight-line path, the system delivers uniform results every time—eliminating guesswork, rework, and inconsistent quality.

This straightforward approach allows teams to increase production speed while maintaining precise, repeatable tape application across a wide range of parts and product types.

How it works:

Operator-guided product pushed through the laminator
Single-lane or dual-lane configurations
Fixed-width or flexible tape configurations depending on production needs
