Nip roll machines with larger openings than 1 ½” are available in two models – the SP3, which can have up to a 3” opening between rolls, and the SPL, which is able to go to a 6” opening.
This style nip roller is designed for lamination of thick parts such as foam sheets. It has capability to open up to 6” between rolls. It is used for foam packaging assembly, laminating PSA film to foam, foam lamination, and laminating thick parts such as corrugated built-up blocks.
The SP3 has a floating upper pinch roll like the standard smoothing press. The upper roll is mounted to a set of extended arms which allow adjustment up to a 3” opening between rolls. It is used for foam lamination, bonding of PSA film, lamination of rigid boards, and corrugated build-ups. It can also be equipped with the air cylinder option (the ACP version), which can increase the squeeze pressure between rolls to as high as 600 lbs.
