Hotronix, Carmichaels, Pa., introduces its Auto Open clam shell heat press with optional accessories.
The 16” x 20” press offers a variety of features that make it easy to use and allow operators to multitask, maximizing productivity and preventing over-application, according to the company.
Features include a digital pressure display function, which allows users to accurately set their machines to the exact pressure needed for every job. This feature has a single-digit LED display that measures the amount of pressure placed on the printed item. Once the press is closed, the display will show a number from 1 to 9 representing the strength, 1 being light and 9 being firm pressure.
Another feature is the patented magnetic-assist lock down with automatic release so the top platen pops up when the job is finished. It has digital time and temperature controls, a 3/4-inch, non-stick upper platen and a wide opening for easy layout.
This press also is available in 11” x 15” and a 16” x 16” sizes. All Hotronix presses have cast-in tubular heating elements with a lifetime warranty to guarantee against cold spots.
Two optional accessories also are available: the Hotronix Heat Press Caddie, a pedestal stand that makes any press threadable, and the new Heat Press Caddie shelves, which keep blank garments, transfers and accessories within an arm’s reach at all times.
