The
Thermvac 1300 Sublimation Heat Press is a versatile, large format flat
vacuum heat transfer press that
has a wide variety of applications.
Primarily designed for the
dye sublimation market, the press
is also used for hot and cold
mounting and
laminating, as well as
vinyl transfers. The heat press
is ideal for users who have larger work pieces, work that cannot be
processed in multiple bites or those who need to press many small,
and / or different sized work pieces simultaneously.
Our heatpress can cope with a wide variety of
substrates including fabrics,
board, glass, metal, wood, plastics and ceramic tiles.
Vacuum heat presses work by using a pump
to create a vacuum between a rigid heated platen and a flexible diaphragm,
so using atmospheric pressure to apply the required force to
the materials being pressed. This method can provide greater and
more uniform pressure than a traditional
hardbed heat transfer press in a
machine that is far lighter and less cumbersome than a flat
hardbed press of similar size. The advantages and disadvantages of
vacuum presses are discussed more fully in the
heat press overview page. |
