Hotronix® Pedestal Air Fusion® Maximizes Heat-Applied Graphics Productivity

For pretreating and curing of digital direct-to-garment prints, the Hotronix® Pedestal Air Fusion® is ideal because the patented Auto Adjust Pressure can be programmed for up to four pressure settings. This allows the user to select the appropriate application based on the garment. It also makes it easy to switch between garments of different thickness such as T-shirts and hoodies.

The pneumatic heat press compresses and flattens the fibers and provides a smooth, even surface for the inks to adhere to. Finished garments appear brighter and crisper than with manually operated heat presses.

The press has a fully threadable lower platen. Garments are positioned on the lower platen and can be rotated from front to back and side to side making it easier to put heat-applied graphics in hard-to-reach places.

The exclusive auto-open, swing-away upper platen provides a heat-free workspace for safer two-hand operation. With the touch screen the operator can digitally set the time, temperature, and pressure; enter preset programs; an energy-saving sleep mode; and a production cycle counter. Temperature readings are in Fahrenheit or Centigrade measurements.

The Air Fusion stand is height adjustable making it ergonomic even when used by more than one person. The pedestal has casters enabling customers to wheel the heat press to anywhere in the shop and to on-site events.

The machine is UL/ULC/CE RoHS compliant and comes in 110v or 220v models. Air compressor required and sold separately. There is a lifetime warranty on the heating element, a five-year warranty on the framework, a two-year warranty on the circuit board, and a one-year warranty on parts and labor.  MORE INFO
