TS-1600 PRO-S

HEAVY DUTY LAMINATOR AND SLITTER IN ONE MACHINE, ENGINEERED FOR TAPE CONVERTING WITH FREQUENT CHANGEOVERS.
The Crest TS-1600 PRO-S delivers an impressive roller pressure of up to 8 N/mm combined with a specially selected rubber compound. This powerful combination completely eliminates the silvering effect (microscopic air enclosures) that often plagues conventional laminators on rough surfaces and UV-curable inkjet prints. Equipped with a high-precision integrated slitting system, special differential windup shafts, a smart, rotatable HMI touchscreen, and a high-performance 150°C heated top roller, this robust industrial system guarantees flawless lamination and perfectly finished rolls.

WHERE DO YOU NEED IT FOR?

01 / UV PRINT FINISHING & SLITTING
PROTECTIVE OVERLAMINATION AND PRECISION CUTTING
Engineered specifically for Print Service Providers (PSPs) and industrial finishers, the Crest TS-1600 PRO-S combines high-volume lamination with an inline finishing solution. Utilizing extreme nip pressure to eliminate silvering on UV prints, the machine simultaneously processes large rolls into precise, ready-to-use smaller rolls via its integrated crush-cut slitting system.

02 / TRAFFIC SIGNS
HEAVY DUTY LAMINATION AND ROLL PROCESSING
Designed for manufacturers who require both ultimate bond durability and high-speed production. The TS-1600 PRO-S combines extreme high pressure with a precise 150°C heated top roller for weather-resistant lamination. The addition of differential shafts ensures that even challenging materials are wound perfectly, eliminating tension differences for a superior end product.

03 / DECORATIVE MATERIALS
PREMIUM FINISHING AND SLITTING
The ultimate solution for producers requiring flawless surface quality and exact roll dimensions. Thanks to the special rubber compound of the rollers, precise pressure readout on the rotatable HMI touchscreen, and the advanced slitting and differential windup technology, it guarantees streak-free, bubble-free, and perfectly wound rolls.

BUILT FOR DEMANDING LAMINATION AND CONVERTING
The Crest TS-1600 PRO-S is purpose-built for the most challenging
industrial finishing tasks. Beyond its core capability of applying high-quality protective laminates, it features a modular slitting unit with 7 crush-cut blades (expandable) that cut against a hardened bottom roller.

To ensure the best possible windup result, the machine is equipped with
special differential shafts. These shafts automatically compensate for any
tension differences, ensuring that the processed small rolls are wound with perfect consistency, regardless of the material width or properties. Where standard laminators fail to deliver finished rolls, the TS-1600 PRO-S excels. Its robust industrial frame, high-performance heating, and precision slitting are engineered for continuous daily production at extreme pressures of up to 8N/mm.

WHERE THE TS-1600 PRO-S EARNS ITS PLACE.

SILVERING-FREE ON UV PRINTS
The combination of exceptional laminating pressure (up to 8N/mm) and a specially selected rubber compound completely eliminates microscopic air enclosures. The Crest TS-1600 PRO-S ensures an unbreakable bond and a structurally perfect, crystal-clear surface every single time.

PRECISION SLITTING & DIFFERENTIAL WINDUP
Equipped with an integrated unit featuring 7 adjustable crush-cut blades, this machine transforms large laminated rolls into precise, smaller output rolls. The blades cut against a hardened steel bottom roller for clean edges, while the high-end differential windup shafts actively manage material tension to ensure a perfectly smooth and stable roll profile.

HMI TOUCHSCREEN & FULL OPERATOR CONTROL
The rotatable HMI Touchscreen allows seamless machine operation from both the front and the rear. Operators benefit from precise digital readouts of speed, temperature, and roller pressure, alongside advanced safety functions. Engineered strictly to optimize operator workflow, the system provides total control over every aspect of the lamination and slitting process.
