Crest laminators are perfectly suited to work with metals. Our machines are able to apply permanent or temporary coatings or films to metals such as:
- stainless steel
- aluminium
- tin
With the Crest laminators it is possible to apply adhesive coatings on metal sheets in a sheet-by sheet process. It is also common for the material to be wound on and off a roll to be laminated with another material to form a semi-finished product.
We have the knowledge to process or inspect the finished or semi-finished products with among others:
- Perforating
- Embossing
- Laser marking
- Hologram or RFID implementation
- Camera inspection
Whether it is to give a product appeal or whether the material properties are desired: metal is used in all conceivable market segments.

Medical Face Mask Laminator
Our solution:
The “Mask Fabricator” seamlessly laminates 4 materials (e.g. non-wovens) with highly variable mechanical properties, into a perfectly bonded, flat, and wrinkle-free material. Precise tension control and mechanical and software integration transform this machine into the perfect production line integration machine. The cleverly designed splicing table provides quick splicing of new materials to ensure maximum productivity.
Read MoreFull Automatic De-Laminator
Our solution:
Featuring unrivaled autonomy, our de-laminator effortlessly processes plastic plates located on a pallet at its front. A high-precision fully automatic Pick & Place unit serves to feed and align the sheets with utmost accuracy. Once fed, a high-tech tape application solution applies tape to connect the protective films of successive sheets. After a precision split knife continuously peels the connected films from the sheets, it will be wound onto its own winding positions. Another unique characteristic of the machine: it offers dual-sided operation, removing protective films from both upper and lower surfaces of the sheets.
