Combo Film Laminating Plus Forming Line vs Film-Only Scope

1. Default scope in this pack

The anti-condensation / anti-drip felt lines documented in pack 70-FILM-LAMINATE are combination plants, not standalone film applicators. A typical quoted sequence is:

1. Hydraulic decoiling (with coil car on the reference quote)
2. Entry guide / anti-dripping felt coating (with a pre-manual shear station on that quote)
3. Roll forming
4. Hydraulic shear
5. About 6 m automatic stacking

Industry practice matches this idea: anti-condensation fleece is often applied at the entry of a profiling line so the membrane travels with the panel through forming — not as a separate “film-only” machine rating by default.

2. Combo reference ratings

These figures describe the whole combination line on the Keith White–class reference quotation. Do not paste them onto a pure laminator inquiry.

Decoiler hydraulic / drive motors are written about 4 kW each on that quote; stacker main about 2.2 kW. Max coil width about 1250 mm; coil ID about 450–550 mm; decoiler capacity about 5 t.

3. When buyers ask for film only

• Standalone felt / film application without forming is a separate technical scope
• Do not reuse combo-line kW or m/min as a pure laminator rating
• Confirm applicator type (self-adhesive felt vs hot-press PE / nano film, etc.) on the proposal — market machines offer both families
• Guide the inquiry to a contract technical confirmation; do not invent standalone applicator parameters that are not in the FAQ source

4. Not the same as

• Continuous color-coating lines — different process family
• Standard roof-panel main lines — may form panels without anti-drip felt; do not treat roof-only ratings as the combo answer
• Protective PE film for finish protection — temporary surface film is not the same product as underside anti-condensation fleece

5. Buyer FAQ

Are speed and power for the felt station alone?

No. About 0–20 m/min and about 7.5 kW main describe the combination forming section on the pack reference — not a film-only machine.

What substrate should I put on the inquiry?

State width (about 1220 / 1250 mm class), thickness (about 0.3–0.8 mm), and whether GI or PPGI plus anti-drip felt is required. Upper/lower panel drawings follow the quotation attachments.

Can I order forming without felt later?

Possible as a configuration discussion, but it is not the default pack scope. Confirm included stations in the proposal.
