Details & specifications
Overview
The Dry-Lam CL-40DX is a 40" wide-format roll laminator from the Element Series, the Deluxe model in Dry-Lam's American-made line. The 40" width handles large prints, posters, signage, and ganged runs that a 27" machine cannot. "Deluxe" sits in the middle of the Element range, above the Standard and below the Professional, so it suits a print shop or school that laminates regularly but does not need the Professional's heaviest-film capability. Mid-State Litho is an authorized Dry-Lam dealer and has sold and serviced laminating equipment across Michigan and the Great Lakes for 50 years. This is not a drop-ship: our factory-trained technicians deliver it, set it up, train your operators, and back it with same-day and next-day service. The CL-40DX ships by truck freight, FOB with a lift gate, in 2-4 weeks. Ask about lease and purchase financing.

How to choose a roll laminator
- Width: 27" vs 40". Match the roller width to your widest print. 27" covers letter to tabloid and small posters; 40" (the CL-40DX) handles large posters, signage, and ganged sheets.
- Grade: Standard vs Deluxe vs Professional. The Element Series steps up across these three. Standard is the entry tier, Deluxe (this model) is the mid tier, Professional is the top tier for the heaviest film and hardest duty.
- Volume and duty cycle. A laminator that runs all day needs the higher grade; occasional runs fit Standard.
- Film and service. Budget for film as an ongoing cost, and buy from a dealer that stocks film and services the machine. MSL does both across Michigan and the Great Lakes.
