From China factory and manufacturer -SHANDONG MINGHUNG WOOD MACHINERY CO.,LTD
Introduction:
Laminating film paper on plywood surface is a popular technique used to enhance the aesthetic appeal and durability of plywood furniture and surfaces. This process involves using a laminating hot press machine to bond a thin layer of film paper onto the plywood, resulting in a smooth and glossy finish. In this article, we will guide you through the step-by-step process of laminating film paper on plywood, ensuring a professional and long-lasting outcome.
First:
To ensure a successful lamination, it is crucial to prepare the plywood surface properly. Start by sanding the surface by plywood sander. This step helps to create a smooth and even surface, allowing the film paper to adhere more effectively. After sanding, wipe away any dust or particles using a clean cloth.
Second:
Put plywood and film paper on the semi auto infeeder platform, it will automatically convey film plywood to each layers of infeeder, and the infeeder will convey all film plywood into film hot press machine, After press a while, the film paper will stick on plywood firmly, its pressing time not fixed, because it is related to the film paper, plywood thickness, and other factors, usually 5-8 mins will be ok.
Thus you will get the film faced plywood board.
What is film hot press machine?
Actually film hot press machine is not special, it is the hot press machine with stainless steel plate and cushion pad, then it is called film or laminating hot press, especially for film faced plywood production.
For film hot press machine, usually we advise its pressure is 800ton, it is through years of production experience, people feedback. And usually the laminating hot press equipped with semi auto infeeder, thus it can help you laminating film paper on both plywood sides at the same time, improve work efficiency and save time.
Consider film paper feature, for the film hot press layers, we not advise it is more, at most 10 layers will be good, also you can choose it be less like 8 layers, 6 layers, 5 layers.

For some clients, they produce anti-slip plywood, also be called honeycomb plywood, its surface has pattern, for this type, then it requires different stainless steel plate, like below:
with such stainless steel plate, your end plywood surface will with such pattern too.
