The portrait Mini TP H 76 features a Heidelberg Speedmaster 74 feeder and can handle up to 2,700 B1 sheets per hour, or 45 metres per minute, but can take sheets as small as A4.
A single-sided film laminating version of the machine costs 58,000, while a perfecting version, which laminates both sides in a single pass, costs 65,000.
Autobond managing director John Gilmore said: "There is a huge market for a high-quality laminator that is not expensive to purchase, is quick to make ready and efficient at handling runs up to 5,000 sheets."
The launch of the Mini TP H 76 comes just three weeks after Autobond announced a B2 version of the machine, the TP H52x74, which will launch at Northprint in Harrogate later in the month.
