The “throat” is the width of the opening to the laminator. This determines the maximum width of laminating film or pouch that will fit through the machine. “Max clearance” refers to the gap or vertical clearance between the top and bottom rollers of a laminator. This is important when determining if the machine is capable of laminating thick stock or can be used to mount prints to foam-core or other rigid backers.
