How to Replace the Main PCB of the Royal Sovereign Laminator?

This video shows a demonstration of how to replace the main PCB of the Royal Sovereign laminator.

Here is a transcript of this video:

After removing the back cover, we now have access to the main PCB port. Once you access the circuit board, you’ll find that it has multiple connectors. This particular circuit board has ten connectors. We have ten showing here – one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, and two in the back make ten. It’s always good to draw a little diagram of the board to show how the layout is. What we have done here is showed you how the layout is and we have numbered all ten of the connectors. What we’ll do from here is, as we pull these connectors, we’re going to mark each one to show where they go back in place. Once we have them all numbered, now we know and remove the two screws that hold the power cables on. Once they’re removed, we have clips that hold the board on. They need to be squeezed to get them to disconnect. Then pull them out to remove the board. Now that we have our new circuit board, we’re going to put that into the laminator. We need to know what side is the front side and then position the board so it snaps into the four tabs that hold it into place. Once those are inserted and locked, now using our diagram, we need to replace all the connectors that are on the circuit board. And, finally, we need to put the two screws that hold the power cable to the board. And now what we need to do is to put our back cover back on. Thank you.

Can I use wire with my comb binding machine?

< Over the years, a number of customers have asked me whether they can use twin loop wire with their plastic comb binding machine. These customers often don’t want to have to buy a brand new machine but like the look and feel of twin loop wire binding. However, the answer to their question isn’t as simple as it seems. You see, they actually do make twin loop wire that is designed to work with the plastic comb binding hole pattern. With that said, if you want to use these wires you are going to need a way to close the wires. What is Spiral-O Wire? Let me explain a little bit more…There is a product that we carry called Spiral-O Wire. This wire has 19 loops and is designed to work with the hole pattern from a plastic comb binding machine. Spiral-O Wire is sometimes called Wire Combs or Ibico Wire and was originally designed for use with some of the older Ibico binding machines. A number of the older Ibico plastic comb binding machines also included a twin loop wire closer on the front of them to allow users to use both plastic combs and wire. This 19 loop wire was designed for this purpose. What Equipment is Needed? As the Ibico brand has been phased out by GBC and all of the older Ibico plastic binding machines have been replaced with new models, they no longer have the twin loop wire closer on the front of them. This presents a problem in trying to use these spiral-o wires since you can’t use the wires without a way to close them. One of the only options left is to purchase a Twin Loop wire closer. However, since twin loop wire closers are not incredibly cheap this option usually only appeals to users who have larger electric plastic comb binding machines. Otherwise, it is often advisable to simply buy a low end 3:1 pitch twin loop wire binding machine (the supplies are cheaper). This being said, if you have one of the older Ibico binding machines that has a wire closer included you are in luck. The Spiral-O binding supplies that we carry will work perfectly with your machine and you will be able to use both plastic combs and wire depending on your needs. These Spiral-O binding supplies are available in Black, Silver, White, Blue and Red and in sizes up to 1″ in diameter. If you aren’t sure what type of wire binding supplies that you need to work with your machine simply give us a call. Our trained sales representatives will be glad to help you find the correct supplies for use with your machine.(Read More)
