Rollover Application Table FAQs
Rollover application tables are used across the sign, print, vehicle wrapping and graphics industries to improve efficiency, accuracy and workflow. Below are answers to some of the most common questions we receive about Rollover tables, applications, installation and production capabilities.
General Rollover FAQs
What industries use Rollover application tables?
Rollover application tables are used across a wide range of industries where large graphics, films and panels need to be applied accurately and efficiently and often by only one person. They are especially popular in businesses involved in sign making, wide format printing, vehicle wrapping, window tinting and traffic signage production.
Our customers use Rollover tables for mounting prints to rigid boards, laminating graphics, applying vinyl to ACM panels, handling reflective films and preparing large-format displays. Because the tables make it easier for a single operator to handle large materials, they are widely used by businesses looking to improve workflow, reduce waste and achieve more consistent results.
Different Rollover models suit different production environments, from compact workshops through to high-volume sign and print facilities.
What materials can be applied using a Rollover table?
Rollover application tables are designed to work with a wide variety of materials used throughout the sign, print and graphics industries. Common applications include self-adhesive vinyl (SAV), application tape, printed films, laminates, reflective films, window films and paint protection film (PPF).
The tables are widely used for mounting graphics onto rigid substrates such as ACM panels, acrylic, PVC foam board, aluminium, corflute and glass. Many businesses use Rollover tables for laminating large format prints, preparing vehicle wraps and applying graphics to signage panels with greater accuracy and consistency.
Because the roller applies even pressure across the surface, operators can achieve smooth, bubble-free applications while handling large and delicate materials more efficiently.
Can Rollover tables be used for laminating large prints?
Yes, laminating large format prints is a common use for a Rollover table. The roller applies consistent pressure across the entire surface, making it easier to achieve a smooth, bubble-free finish on everything from posters and display graphics through to vehicle wraps, wall graphics and signage.
For many print and sign businesses, the biggest advantage is being able to handle larger graphics with greater control. The flat work surface supports the print during the laminating process, helping to reduce wrinkles, misalignment and costly rework. Depending on the size of the table, a single operator can often laminate graphics that would otherwise require two people to manage.
This makes the process faster, more consistent and less physically demanding, particularly when working with oversized prints.
What size graphics can a Rollover table handle?
The size of graphics that can be handled depends on the model and table dimensions.

Rollover tables are designed to accommodate everything from smaller decals and signage through to large format prints, vehicle wraps, wall graphics and oversized display panels.
One of the advantages of the roller system is that you're not limited by the length of the graphic. As long as the material can be fed across the table, long prints can be applied in sections while maintaining accuracy and consistent pressure. Wider tables also make it easier to work with large banners, printed films and rigid panels.
If you're regularly producing oversized graphics, we can help determine which model and table size best suits your workflow and production requirements.
Are Rollover tables suitable for high-volume production?
Yes, many of our customers use Rollover tables in busy production environments where large volumes of graphics need to be laminated, mounted or applied each day. The tables are designed to streamline workflow, allowing a single operator to handle materials more efficiently while maintaining a high standard of finish.
In high-volume sign and print businesses, consistency is just as important as speed. The roller applies even pressure across the surface, helping to reduce application errors, rework and material waste. The large work area also makes it easier to prepare and process graphics without constantly moving materials between different workstations.
For businesses producing a steady flow of signage, displays, vehicle graphics or printed panels, a Rollover table can become a central part of the production process.
Do Rollover tables require compressed air?
Yes, Rollover tables require a compressed air supply to raise and lower the roller and apply consistent pressure during laminating, mounting and vinyl application tasks.
The air consumption is relatively low, so most standard workshop compressors are more than adequate. However, Wilenco has an optional low noise 20ltr compressor available that is suitable for any Rollover table.
If you're planning a new installation and have an exsisting air supply system, we can advise on the requirements for your chosen model. We'll also discuss any site requirements before installation to ensure everything is ready when your table arrives.
Can a Rollover table reduce bubbles and wrinkles?
Yes, one of the main reasons businesses invest in a Rollover table is to achieve more consistent, professional application results with fewer bubbles, wrinkles and creases.
The roller applies even pressure across the entire width of the material, helping graphics, laminates and films bond smoothly to the surface. Combined with the flat work area, this gives operators greater control during application and makes it easier to spot and correct issues before they become a problem.
While results will always depend on the material, substrate and operator technique, many customers find they experience fewer application errors and less rework compared to manual methods. This can be particularly beneficial when working with large prints, vehicle graphics, sign panels and other materials where mistakes can be costly.
Are Rollover tables made in Norway?
Yes, Rollover tables are designed and manufactured in Norway by Rollover AS. The company has its roots in the sign industry, having spent many years manufacturing illuminated signage and working closely with sign makers to understand the challenges they face when laminating and mounting large graphics.
That hands-on industry experience led to the development of the Rollover concept, with the goal of creating a flatbed applicator that offered greater control, efficiency and ease of use than traditional methods. After several years of product development and testing, the first Rollover Flatbed Applicators were introduced in 2011.
Today, Rollover tables are used by sign, print and graphics businesses around the world. As the Australian distributor, we provide local sales, installation, training and ongoing support to help customers get the most from their investment.
How long does installation take?
Installation is usually completed within a few hours, although the exact time can vary depending on the model, site accessibility and location. Before installation, we'll discuss access requirements to ensure the table can be delivered and positioned smoothly within your workspace.
Once the table is in place, we'll connect power, the air supply, carry out final checks and make sure everything is operating correctly. We also take the time to walk your team through the key features and basic operation of the machine.
Businesses are able to start using their new table on the same day, making the transition into production straightforward with minimal disruption to day-to-day operations.
Is training provided with installation?
Yes, training is provided as part of the installation process. Once the table is inplace and connected to air and power, we'll guide your team through the key functions, operating procedures and best practices for everyday use.
The training is designed to help operators become comfortable with the equipment as quickly as possible, whether they're laminating prints, mounting graphics to rigid panels or applying app tape.
Most users find the tables intuitive to operate, but taking the time to understand the correct techniques can help maximise productivity and reduce the likelihood of application errors. Our goal is to ensure you're confident using the table from day one.
What maintenance is required on a Rollover table?
Rollover tables are designed to be reliable and low maintenance, with most routine care involving simple cleaning and periodic inspections. Keeping the work surface clean and free from dust, adhesive residue and offcuts will help maintain smooth operation and protect the materials you're working with.
It's also a good idea to regularly check the roller, air supply and moving components to ensure everything is operating as intended. In busy production environments, a quick visual inspection as part of your normal workflow is often all that's required.
Like any piece of workshop equipment, preventative maintenance can help maximise performance and longevity. We'll provide guidance on basic maintenance requirements and are always available to assist if you have any questions or service needs down the track.
Can the table height be adjusted electronically?
Yes, electronic height adjustment is available as an option on all Rollover models excluding the Flexi 1510. This allows operators to raise or lower the working height at the touch of a button, making it easier to create a comfortable and ergonomic working position throughout the day.
The ability to adjust the table height can be particularly beneficial in busy production environments where multiple staff members use the same equipment. Rather than adapting to a fixed work surface, each operator can quickly set the table to a height that suits them.
In addition to improving comfort, the correct working height can help reduce fatigue when handling large prints, signage panels and other materials, especially during longer production runs.
What warranty is included with a Rollover table?
All Rollover tables are backed by a 5-year warranty, giving you added confidence that your investment is protected for the long term.
The warranty reflects the quality of the materials, components and engineering that go into every table. These machines are built for demanding sign, print and graphics production environments, where reliability and consistent performance are essential.
Beyond the warranty itself, we also provide local support, installation and training to help keep your equipment operating at its best. If you ever have a question or require assistance, we're only a phone call away.
For full warranty terms and coverage details, please contact us and we'll be happy to discuss what's included for your chosen model.
Can Rollover tables improve workflow efficiency?
Yes, improving workflow efficiency is one of the main reasons businesses invest in a Rollover table. By bringing laminating, mounting and application tasks together on a single work surface, operators can complete jobs more quickly and with fewer interruptions.
The large flatbed design provides better control when handling oversized prints, signage panels and vinyl graphics, reducing the need to constantly reposition materials or involve additional staff. Many customers also find that having a dedicated workstation helps keep production areas more organised and improves job flow throughout the day.
While every business operates differently, a more efficient workflow can lead to faster turnaround times, greater consistency and less time spent correcting application mistakes or handling materials multiple times.
What substrates can be mounted on a Rollover table?
A Rollover table can be used to mount graphics onto a wide range of rigid substrates commonly used in the sign, print and display industries. These include ACM (aluminium composite material), acrylic, PVC foam board, corflute, aluminium, glass, MDF and other flat panel materials.
The flat work surface and roller system make it easier to apply printed graphics, cut vinyl and laminates accurately across both small and large panels. This is particularly useful when producing retail signage, exhibition displays, wayfinding signs, wall graphics and point-of-sale materials where a clean, professional finish is essential.
If you're working with a specific substrate or application, we're happy to discuss your requirements and recommend the most suitable solution for your workflow.
