Tablet thermopresses for t-shirts and fabric

Heat press for t-shirts is a type of press that is characterized by a flat heating surface. It is also called a "flat heat press". As the name suggests, this equipment is used for printing images on t-shirts and fabrics, but this is only a small part of what a flat heat press is capable of.

In addition to printing colored images on t-shirts, pillows, and other types of fabrics, a flat heat press can be used to print on a wide range of souvenir products. It can help to apply a quality image on notebooks, business card holders, keychains, puzzles, bags, clutches, and much more. The most important condition is that the surface on which the image will be applied must be flat. You can buy a heat press for t-shirts with delivery throughout Ukraine from us.

How to print an image using a heat press for t-shirts?

The sublimation process is quite simple and requires the presence of sublimation paper and special ink.

  1. Printing the selected image in mirror image on a printer filled with sublimation ink.
  2. Placing and fixing the image face down on the product.
  3. The prepared blank is placed in a heated heat press.
  4. Under the influence of high temperature, the sublimation ink penetrates into the upper layers of the material and solidifies there, forming a strong bond with the particles of the product itself.

Thanks to sublimation, you will get an original t-shirt or other souvenir with a bright image of photographic quality. The transferred image does not fade, does not crack, withstands direct sunlight, temperature changes, and increased humidity. You can decorate a t-shirt with a photo, a funny print, a humorous message, a symbolic image, print state symbols, or any preferred image.

    What are the types of Heat Presses for Fabric?

    Heat presses for fabric differ from each other depending on several parameters:

    1. Size.
    2. Pressure level.
    3. Type of plate:
      • Swing-away heat press for t-shirts - provides easy access to the working surface because the heating element can be easily moved aside, and also provides more even pressure over the entire surface of the workpiece.
      • Clamshell heat press for t-shirt printing - takes up little space, but is slightly inconvenient to use when loading workpieces. Moreover, there is a risk of getting burned by the lid if safety techniques are not followed. A good alternative is a heat press with a sliding plate.
    4. Automation of the process:
      • Manual heat press for t-shirts - manual labor is used to lift and lower the heating element. Therefore, the sublimation process of a batch of goods takes quite a long time. An ideal option for small souvenir production.
      • Pneumatic heat press for t-shirts - the process of controlling the heating element occurs automatically, which allows such equipment to be used in large-scale production. The average productivity reaches several dozen products per hour. The indicator depends on their size and occupied area.

    It is important to know that the most important thing in any heat press for t-shirt printing is the ability to maintain the set temperature regime over the entire surface of the plate. This is influenced by such parameters as its thickness and the number of spirals. Too high a temperature or its prolonged exposure can cause the image to "float". This may lead to deformation of the workpiece itself. If the temperature is too low or uneven, the image will come out faded or unevenly colored.

    To avoid damaging the product or releasing low-quality products, all modern heat presses for t-shirts and fabrics are equipped with an electronic or digital display that controls such parameters as the temperature regime and the duration of exposure. There are models in which you can even set the degree of pressure on the workpiece, which is very convenient when using this equipment to manufacture souvenir-advertising products from various materials.

    For large-scale production, it is better to pay attention to a tablet heat press with a thick rotating heating element and a pneumatic drive, as well as a digital system for controlling the operating parameters. Prices for such heat presses will be higher.
