Display
The laminator has its own built-in display. Usually, this is the simplest LCD with segment numbers and additional graphic symbols (similar to those used in digital watches). Nevertheless, even such a screen is more versatile and informative than indicator lights, it is able to display a wide variety of additional information — the operating mode, the set heating temperature, error messages, etc. This makes management more convenient, and also makes it easier to implement some additional features — for example, programming.
Power consumption
The electrical power consumed by the laminator in usual operation. Even in A2 format models (see above), this figure rarely exceeds 2 kW (which is comparable to the consumption of an electric kettle or iron), not to mention simpler devices. Therefore, in most cases, this spec is a reference and practically may be used only in rare cases. But when choosing a professional large-format laminator with media size of A0 or A1, you should pay special attention to power consumption — it can be up to 10 – 11 kW, which puts forward specific connection requirements.
