Laminating Water Chiller

Time:2023-09-21 Views:198

Laminating machines generate incredible amounts of heat to seal plastic materials around printed documents and other products. In an industrial laminate environment, this heat needs to dissipate somewhere. Without chilled water running through it to keep it at the required temperature, the laminator won‘t work properly. Our Laminating chillers can provide high quality chilled water at reasonable prices. A variety of different installation configurations are available to meet a variety of your needs. Glycol chillers, industrial chillers, packaged chillers, split chillers, portable chillers, and custom chillers available.


Laminating Process

1.What Is Lamination ?

Lamination is the process of permanently bonding two or more layers of materials together to enhance their properties or create a composite material with improved properties. This is usually achieved through heat, pressure or adhesives.

Here are some common lamination types and their applications:

Film lamination:

In the film lamination process, heat and pressure are used to apply a thin layer of plastic film, such as polyethylene or polypropylene, to a surface. This is often used in packaging to provide protection, improve appearance, and add strength.

For example, laminating films to paper can create products such as glossy magazine covers or laminated ID cards.

Paper texture:

This involves coating another surface, such as cardboard or wood, with a layer of paper, usually coated with an adhesive. It is used to improve the appearance and durability of printed materials such as posters, labels and book covers.

Fabric texture:

Fabric lamination involves bonding one layer of fabric to another material, usually using adhesives and heat. This can create textiles with enhanced properties, such as waterproofing, insulation or flame retardancy.

Wood texture:

In wood processing, lamination involves gluing together multiple layers of wood to create a stronger, more stable composite material. This technique is commonly used in the manufacture of plywood and engineered wood products.

Fiberglass Lamination:

This process involves applying a fiberglass fabric or underlayment to the surface using resin. The resulting composites are lightweight and strong and are commonly used in shipbuilding, automotive parts and aerospace applications.

Lamination serves a variety of purposes, including improving durability, providing protection from environmental factors, enhancing appearance, adding strength or rigidity, and providing special properties such as water resistance or fire resistance. The choice of materials and lamination technology depends on the intended application and the specific properties required of the final product.

2.What is A Laminating Chiller?

A Laminating chiller is a specialized cooling device used in Laminating facilities. Its primary purpose is to control and maintain the temperature of the solvent used in the Laminating process.The use of a Laminating chiller is especially important when a solvent like perchloroethylene (perc) is employed, as it can be sensitive to temperature variations. By maintaining a consistent and controlled temperature, Laminating chillers can ensure that the cleaning process is effective and safe

3.Why Lamination Process Need A Water Chiller ?
Temperature control is a key factor in  lamination. Since paper contains 4-6% moisture, humidity can significantly affect print quality and the overall storage of the paper. Therefore,laminating equipment must integrate industrial cooling systems to achieve proper temperature control and minimize the impact of heat on paper, ink, rollers and other equipment.

4.What’s the Difference Between Air-cooled & Water-cooled Laminating Chillers?
There are two types of Laminating chiller: one is air-cooled Laminating chiller ,the other is water-cooled Laminating chiller ;
Air-cooled Laminating chillers use ambient air to dissipate heat from the brewing processes. They are energy-efficient, space-saving, and less maintenance that helps save money. 

Water-cooled Laminating chillers use water from an external water cooling tower to dissipate heat from the brewing processes. These systems are longer lifespan, Relatively quiet, and more consistent cooling performance than the air-cooled Laminating chiller.

6.What Are The Main Components of Laminating Chillers?

6.1 Compressor
The compressor is the key mover in water chiller because it produces pressure variations to stir the refrigerant around.
From 1/2HP(1/2 Ton) to 60HP(5oTon) Laminating chiller , which is with Panasonic or Danfoss brand Scroll compressor ,
Above 60HP Laminating chiller,which is with Hanbell or Bitzer screw compressor;

6.2 Evaporator
The evaporator is a crucial component of air-cooled water chiller, as it is responsible for extracting heat from the liquid being cooled,it is located between the compressor and the expansion valve. There are three types of evaporators : coil in water tank evaporator , shell and tube evaporator, 304SS stainless steel plate type evaporator.

6.3 Water Pump
The water pump is designed to increase the pressure and the flow of the chilled water in a closed space. 
Laminating Chiller is used with 304 Stainless Steel Water pump.

6.4 Condenser

The condenser for air-cooled Laminating cooler is equipped with efficient cross-seam fins and female threaded copper tubes for high heat exchange efficiency and good stability.Its function is to cool down the refrigerant steam released from the compressor into a liquid or gas-liquid mixture.

The condenser for water-cooled Laminating cooler is shell and tube ,with the internal copper tubes employing an outer thread embossing process.This design effectively enhances the heat exchange efficiency between the refrigerant and water during the process. Compared to traditional smooth copper tubes, the outer thread embossing process increases the surface area of the copper tubes, thereby expanding the contact area for heat exchange and improving the thermal conductivity of the condenser. This optimization design allows the condenser of the water-cooled chiller to transfer heat from the refrigerant to the water more rapidly and consistently, enabling the water to carry away the heat.

8.How to Choose Right Laminating Chiller for Your Laminating Process?
How to calculate right cooling capacity for your Laminating chillers?
Choosing the right size of an printer chiller is crucial for ensuring optimal performance and efficiency in your Laminating process. How to calculate the correct cooling capacity for your Laminating chiller,pls see below:
   ▷Coolant temperature required at the inlet to your laminating machine
   Expected heat loads calculated or specified by the equipment manufacturer
   Coolant flow rate and pressure requirements
   Internal requirements for heat dissipation, space, portability, etc.
   Special requirements such as remote temperature tracking.


Types of Laminatingchiller system?
There are two types of chiller :
Air Cooled Laminating Chiller and Water Cooled Laminating Chiller.
Water cooled chiller needs a separated water cooling tower and water cooling pump ,if you don‘t have exsiting water cooling tower,we suggest you use air cooled chiller; But if your ambiemt temperature is very high above 55℃ ,we suggest you use water cooled chiller , as it is easier to dissipate heat for water cooled chiller with water cooling tower. 
But Most customers use air cooled Laminatingchiller ,which is more easily install and save space.

 Whether chillers need built-in Tank or not?
In a chiller system, a tank is usually equipped to buffer the thermal load of the chiller.
But should we choose a built-in type of tank or an external type of tank?
A chiller with a built-in tank is easier to install and can be used simply by connecting a water pipe to your application. 
But it has a limited capacity and is not suitable for applications with larger chilled water demands.External tank’s capacity can be customized according to specific needs. 
It can buffer a larger heat load, store more chilled water, but the installation will be more troublesome.
If you don‘t have external water tank ,we suggest our chiller built-with water tank ,which is easy for you to install.
