Skandacor Highlights the Bagel Falcon B1 as Demand for High-Volume Lamination and Digital Foil Finishing Grows

With speeds up to 115 ft/min, the Falcon is designed to help print shops do more in less time.

Rochester, NY April 13th, 2026 — As print providers face growing demand for high-volume finishing, faster turnaround, and premium embellishment, Skandacor is highlighting the Bagel Falcon B1 Industrial Single-Side Auto Laminator as a production platform built for speed, automation, and digitally enhanced results.

The Falcon B1 reflects the engineering heritage of Bagel Systems, a pioneering manufacturer of specialty laminating and finishing equipment that was acquired by Skandacor in 2025. By bringing Bagel Systems into the Skandacor portfolio, Skandacor expanded its global finishing capabilities and strengthened its ability to support customers with advanced machinery backed by Skandacor’s North American sales and service infrastructure.

The Falcon B1 is designed to support continuous production and consistent results, with features that help reduce waste and improve operational efficiency, including:

  • Industrial-grade automation, with automatic feeding and pallet load/unload functions that help reduce downtime and paper waste, supporting continuous runs.
  • High productivity for a range of job types, supporting sheet sizes from 8.5” × 11” up to 29.5” × 41”, with speeds up to 115 ft/min (~ 4,000 20” × 28” sheets per hour).
  • Precision performance supported by a pneumatic air-suction feeder, thermal oil-sealed heating roller, and mechanical double decurling bars to help maintain controlled, consistent output.
  • Digital readiness, with integrated digital foil transfer capability to support embellishment and premium finishes.
  • Heavy-duty construction, built for demanding workloads with a steel frame and high-capacity stack feeder.

Today’s most productive print environments need finishing equipment that keeps pace without compromising quality. The Falcon B1 is a powerful tool for printers who want speed, reliability, and advanced finish options that elevate their output and expand revenue streams.​
