but transporting it will still be a tough job.

Wide-format roll
laminators are great for when you need to produce large laminated
documents that look great. One of the biggest ones available is the
Royal Sovereign RSC-1650C. Here’s all you need to know about it,
including what kind of grade it should receive.

  • First and foremost, the
    RSC-1650C is a cold laminator. It doesn’t have any hot settings so
    you won’t be able to use thermal laminating film with it. However,
    you can use pressure-sensitive laminate. This is actually a very
    good thing because you’ll be able to laminate just about anything with
    this device. Your projects won’t be able to get damaged by heat, so
    you can be sure that all of your work will come out of the machine
    in great shape.
  • This machine has an absolutely
    incredible laminating width. It’s capable of laminating items that
    are up to 65 inches wide. This is a great width because you’ll be
    able to laminate a variety of large items including posters, window
    graphics, and more.
  • The film you use with this device
    can be of just about any thickness you want. The thickest film it
    will accept is 10 mil thick, so your items can be as flexible or as
    rigid as you want them to be. You can also use mounting boards as
    long as they’re no thicker than 5/8”.
  • If you’re working
    under a deadline, the RSC-1650C is a great machine to use. Since
    it’s a cold laminator you don’t need to wait for it to warm up.
    Also, it can laminate more than 16 feet of material in one minute. Very
    few machines are as fast as this one. There are 9 speed settings in
    total.
  • This machine does have one major drawback: it is
    huge. The RSC-1650C has dimensions of 77.1" (width) x 25.5"
    (depth) x 47.6" (height). It’s not likely to fit in very small work
    areas. Moving it around will be very difficult because it weighs
    745 pounds. There are casters on the bottom, but transporting it
    will still be a tough job.
  • Despite its large stature,
    the RSC-1650C is remarkably easy to use. There’s a digital control
    panel right on the front of the device and selecting the right
    settings is a snap. A foot pedal also makes operation simple.
  • This
    machine’s rollers are covered by a 6-month warranty. The laminator
    as a whole is covered for up to 1 year

Final grade: A-. The Royal Sovereign
RSC-160C is a very impressive wide-format laminator. There aren’t a lot
of devices with a 65-inch laminating width so that alone makes this
product worth a look. While the lack of a hot setting may deter some
potential buys, its absence is really a good thing and makes this device
much more versatile. It’s also great that this laminator can handle all
thicknesses of laminating film as well as mounting boards. The only
drawback is the size of this device. It’s simply enormous. Nonetheless,
if this machine has all that you need, be sure to check it out today.
