T-653 Continuous Laminator

Reliable Continuous Tape Lamination

The T-653 Continuous Laminator is designed to continuously laminate pressure-sensitive tapes to products moving through a production process. A spring-loaded rubber applying roller both laminates and buffs the tape onto the product surface, ensuring consistent adhesion and finish.

Compact and easy to integrate, the T-653 is well-suited for conveyor-based systems and custom automation where consistent, continuous tape application is required.

Overview

Continuous Lamination Made Simple

The T-653 is engineered for straightforward, reliable operation. Tape is guided under the spring-loaded buffing roller and applied directly to the product as it advances, with lamination speed determined by the product’s line speed.

This simple mechanical design minimizes complexity while delivering consistent lamination results across a variety of pressure-sensitive tape applications.

Consistent Results with Minimal Complexity

By combining a compliant applying roller with controlled tape guidance, the T-653 reduces variation that commonly results from manual tape application.

Operators benefit from quick setup and intuitive use, while production teams gain repeatable tape placement that supports overall process quality and throughput.

One Laminator — Flexible Applications

The T-653 Continuous Laminator is designed to integrate easily into a wide range of systems and supports:

Continuous lamination of pressure-sensitive tapes
Mounting in conveyor-based production lines
Integration into custom-designed taping equipment
Application driven directly by product speed

Multiple mounting configurations allow the T-653 to be positioned to match product flow, line layout, and application requirements.

Built to Match Your Process Requirements

The T-653 can be configured with optional features to expand its tape-handling capabilities, including:

Tape strip-off pin
Supports use with adhesive transfer tapes
Modified configurations
Enable application of adhesive transfer and double-coated tapes with liner removed
High-speed version
Available for applications requiring speeds of up to 500 ft/min (152 m/min)

Straub Design engineers work closely with customers to ensure the T-653 is properly configured for material type, speed, and integration requirements.
