Abstract
A process and apparatus for producing laminated materials comprising a metal sheet laminated on one or both sides to a polymer film or films. The process comprises forming a laminate by a combination of heat and pressure followed by reheating. A heat zone is provided for heating and/or cooling the laminate after the reheat stage and prior to quenching so that the laminate enters the quenching stage at a substantially constant temperature, irrespective of line speed.
