The present invention relates to a laminating and adhesive transfer apparatus (10) or use with a pair of removable feed rolls. The removable feed rolls carrying a supply of stock material to be unwound. The apparatus comprises a frame (12) constructed and arranged to removably mount the feed rolls. A pair of nip rollers are rotatably mounted to the frame. The nip rollers define a nip area therebetween with a feed side and a discharge side. An actuating mechanism is constructed and arranged to affect nip roller rotation. The frame (12) is constructed and arranged such that, when the feed rolls are removably mounted thereto, a master can be inserted between the feed rolls, the stock materials can then be unwound from each of feed rolls so as to be disposed on opposing sides of the master, and the master and the stock materials can thereafter be fed together into the feed side of the nip rollers. The nip rollers are constructed and arranged to apply pressure to the master and stock materials being fed into the feed side of the nip rollers as a result of the nip roller rotation so as to perform a laminating or adhesive transfer process to the master and stock materials and subsequently discharge the processed master and stock materials outwardly fr om the discharge side. An exit tray (16) provides a substrate supporting surface positioned and configured to receive and support the processed master and stock materials being discharged from the nip rollers in a substantially flat relation to thereby prevent downward bending of the processed master and stock materials. |
