Product Description

Swingline Inspire Plus Thermal Pouch Laminator: Laminate favorite photos, award certificates, recipe cards and other mementos with the Swingline Inspire Plus. This compact thermal pouch laminator delivers high-quality lamination for home, craft, classroom and personal business use, and accepts documents up to 12 1/2 in. wide.

A single power setting handles both 3 mil and 5 mil pouches, so there is no temperature dial to adjust based on pouch thickness. Power and ready indicator lights show at a glance when the machine is up to temperature, and a cold setting lets you run pressure-sensitive, self-adhesive pouches without heat.

Features & Benefits

  • Maximum document width of 12 1/2 in. handles letter size documents, photos and oversized craft pieces.
  • Single power setting works with both 3 mil and 5 mil lamination pouches for durable protection that stays flexible.
  • Warms up in as little as 5 minutes. The ready indicator lights up when warm-up is complete.
  • Laminates at 10 in. per minute so you can work through a stack of documents quickly.
  • Cold setting for use with pressure-sensitive, self-adhesive lamination pouches.
  • Jam release lever clears misfed, wrapped or jammed pouches without disassembly.
  • Finished items lie flat to cool, so no exit tray is required.
  • Includes a starter pack of 5 letter size, standard thickness thermal pouches.
  • White and gray housing suits home and classroom settings. Backed by a 90-day limited warranty.

Good To Know

  • Insert the sealed edge of the pouch first. Feeding the open end first is the most common cause of jams and wrinkling.
  • Do not run an empty pouch and do not attempt single-sided lamination, as either can damage the rollers.
  • A slight odor during the first few uses is normal and fades after a few hours of operation.
  • Run a cleaning card or a sheet of paper through the machine periodically to keep the rollers clean.
  • Do not use a carrier and do not trim pouches before laminating.

Instructions

  1. Place the laminator on a secure, stable work surface with the vent slots unobstructed and the rear clear for the pouch to exit.
  2. Insert the plug into an electrical outlet and switch the unit to On using the switch on the side of the machine. The power light will turn on.
  3. Set the Hot/Cold switch. Use the cold setting for pressure-sensitive, self-adhesive pouches.
  4. Position the item to be laminated inside a laminating pouch so it is aligned against the sealed edge with equal borders on the left and right.
  5. Wait for the ready light to turn on, then insert the pouch straight into the entrance slot, sealed edge first.
  6. The laminated item exits from the rear of the machine. Remove it promptly once it stops moving and lay it flat to cool. This helps prevent jams, wrinkling and curling.
  7. If the pouch does not appear at the rear, switch the unit off, slide and hold the release lever, and pull the pouch out toward you from the front.
  8. When finished, switch the unit to Off using the power switch on the side of the machine.

Question & Answers

User Reviews

Made in the USA
hot melt rubber (synthetic)
Offers the widest range of application flexibility available. Exhibits excellent processing performance whether manually or automatically applied. Has superior tensile strength, adhesion properties and holding force which ensures consistent, reliable seals. Hot melt adhesive will bond faster to a surface which is referred to as quick-grab or quick-stick. It typically has higher tack (will feel stickier to the touch), but is also softer. It has lower heat resistance, shear resistance, and sometimes UV resistance than an acrylic adhesive. NOTE: it is called hot melt because the adhesive is applied hot by the manufacturer and then hardens as it cools (you do not need to apply heat to the tape yourself).
natural rubber
Properties are similar to that of hot melt rubber, but natural rubber often holds where other adhesives won't (recycled fibers, dust, cold, heat and heavy loads). It provides good overall adhesion and moisture resistance.
acrylic
Offer excellent performance, especially for applications in temperatures less than 40°F and greater then 120°F. It provides excellent clarity, has high shear strength, is usually more permanent/durable even when exposed to moisture, and it ages well over extended periods in fluorescent and sunlight. Since it remains clear for the life of the application and does not yellow over time it is ideal for applications such as sealing white cartons. While it has good initial adhesion it does take 24-48 hours to cure and to achieve its maximum bond strength (has gradual adhesion buildup). Another difference between hot melt rubber and acrylic adhesive is if you fold tape over making the two adhesive sides touch the acrylic adhesive will remain attached to the carrier (e.g. paper, film) while a hot melt adhesive will stick to itself and pull off of the carrier. It is the best choice for clarity, UV resistance and aging characteristics.
silicone
Is great for extreme temperature applications since silicone adhesive can work in continuous operating temperatures from -100°F to 500°F. They also exhibit good chemical resistance, retain electrical properties, and remove cleanly with little or no residue.
zinc oxide
Zinc oxide based adhesive formula is a skin-friendly adhesive which is commonly used on sports medicine tapes.
Thickness, AKA caliper or gauge, refers to the distance from one surface of a tape backing, or adhesive, to the other.
1 mil = 1/1000 of an inch
Examples: 1/16 inch = 62.5 mils; 1/32 inch = 31.25 mils
The cut level indicates how many grams of cutting load a glove can withstand from a sharp blade before being penetrated.
Lower gauge gloves are heavier - have thicker construction, fewer stiches knitted per inch and offer less dexterity.
Higher gauge gloves are lighter - have thinner/finer construction, more stitches knitted per inch and offer more dexterity.
Gloves offered typically runs from 7 to 18 (12 and 13 are in the middle of the scale).
