Mühlen Elegant 3AF

A3-Size Professional Lamination Machine

Professional A3 Document Lamination

Specially designed for professional and intensive use, the MÜHLEN Elegant 3AF lamination machine coats documents up to A3 size with a smooth, glossy finish. With a fast warm-up time of 4–6 minutes that saves the user time, our model applies PVC lamination film to documents between 75 and 150 microns (per sheet).

A3-Size Document Lamination

Designed to laminate documents, photos, ID cards and cards up to A3 size, the MÜHLEN 3AF model applies glossy, smooth lamination film in a single pass thanks to its 4 rollers. Its advanced mechanical and heating system ensures high performance without compromise, even during prolonged use.

Warning and Alert System

Thanks to its renewed illuminated warning system that alerts the user in case of possible issues, the MÜHLEN Elegant 3AF shows a red light when powered on and in standby mode, and switches to a green LED light once the system reaches the required temperature and is ready to laminate film.

Perfect 4-Roller Design

Thanks to its 4-roller technology specially developed to resist scorching and sticking, the "Elegant 3AF" model coats documents with perfectly glossy and smooth lamination film. The front pair of rollers ensures the film is applied at the correct temperature, while the rear pair of rollers cools the film, ensuring a smooth finish free of air bubbles.

Manual Heat Adjustment

With both cold and hot lamination options, this model laminates all documents and photos with a glossy, smooth and high-quality PVC coating, thanks to a heat adjustment that can be easily set according to the micron thickness of the lamination film being applied.

High-Speed Lamination

The MÜHLEN 3AF professional PVC machine, one of the fastest-laminating models in its class, laminates at a speed of 3.5 meters per minute. Producing scratch-free, crack-free PVC coating quickly, the model laminates film between 75 and 150 microns (per sheet).

Jam Prevention

With our company's patented jam-prevention system, the 3AF model is designed and manufactured to automatically avoid jamming and sticking. Additionally, as a precaution, the release lever on the back of the model frees the lamination film, allowing a damaged film to be easily pulled out and removed from the machine by hand.

Usage and Care Tips

Wait until the indicator turns from red to green before feeding the first document, and set the heat lever to match the micron value of your film. Insert each item straight and centred; the machine detects it and starts by itself. If a sheet jams, let the automatic reverse work first, then use the rear release lever if needed. Choose cold lamination for heat-sensitive or very thin items. Store the unit, which weighs 3.6 kg net, in a dry, dust-free place to protect the rollers during intensive use.
