When decorating garments, either through direct to garment printing or heat transfer, you need a reliable heat press in your setup. Known as the “workhorses” of the industry, HIX heat presses are found in more businesses than any other brand.
The most important factors for any press are that
it needs to be able to hold its heat and provide an even pressure. If your unit doesn’t hold its temperature properly or provide even pressure, it will affect the outcome of your final product.
In DTG, a heat press removes moisture from the garments prior to printing and cures the inks into the fibres once printing is complete. In heat transfer, it also removes any moisture from the garment as well as activates the bonding agent that allows the media to adhere to the fabric.
We work with HIX heat presses because
they’re reliable and they undergo an independent testing process to ensure that the electrics perform at their optimum. HIX also offers a one year general warranty as well as a lifetime warranty on the heater element.
HIX manufactures a variety of different presses, ensuring that your every heating need is taken care of. From the standard clam shell and the handy cap/hat design to swingaway and speciality models, there is sure to be a match for your needs.
Easily set the temperature and time required using the touch screen controls. The readout shows the countdown, beeps once the set time has elapsed and resets once the handle is raised so that it’s ready for your next garment.
Depending on the model, you’ll be able to either adjust the pressure exerted by the press using the black pressure dial (the pressure is displayed on the screen) or by using the adjustment mounted to the back of the platen mount.
All of the presses in the HIX range are incredibly easy to use, whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned garment decorator. They also don’t require a huge amount of strength to operate, making them suitable for all types of user.
Quality control is incredibly important to the HIX team, which is why they test every single press before it’s shipped out. This provides users with peace of mind that their investment will provide them with many years of trouble-free use.
This speciality press incorporates a teflon blanket, which is suspended between the upper and lower platens. It holds the transfer or lettering in place before the heating element locks down, ensuring that it doesn’t shift or move.
