What this page is

This is the "Industrial Heat Press Machines" post on achievement.co.za, one of AM.CO.ZA's company sites. The original post only points to heatpress.co.za with one short paragraph. This Knowledge Base version explains which of AM.CO.ZA's own HEATWARE™ presses are built for high-volume production, using the Buythis product data, the heatpress.co.za site page, the HEATWARE roller posts and AM.CO.ZA's heat press videos, and links to the detailed page for each machine.

Original text: "Explore a wide selection of industrial heat press machines at Heatpress.co.za. From roller heat presses to automatic stations, these machines are designed for high-volume production, ensuring efficiency and reliability in your heat pressing operations. Find the right machine to meet your industrial needs."

Two kinds of industrial press

This page has no prices. Open the product page or Buythis for the current price.

Large flat presses

Machine Type Key facts from the product title
H-PRESS/4060 (KB page) Swing-away, heavy duty 1,800 W, 400 × 600 mm plate, for T-shirt and garment printing
H-PRESS/4060D (KB page) Twin-station, air-lifting 400 × 600 mm, 3,000 W, cross (crosshair) laser alignment, shipped in a crate
H-PRESS/6080D (KB page) Twin-station, air-lifting 600 × 800 mm, 4,800 W, crosshair alignment lasers, shipped in a crate

The twin-station presses lift and press with air, so the operator does not pull a handle, and the lasers project a crosshair to line up the transfer on each station. AM.CO.ZA's videos show the 4060D pressing DTF transfers next to a DTF printer and the 6080D pressing sublimation prints onto aluminium. See the twin-station air-lifting heat press update.

Matching consumables include H-MAT/4060 and H-MAT/6080 8 mm silicone foam mats, and H-FABRIC/4060 and H-FABRIC/6080 non-stick PTFE cloths with wire sleeves.

Roller heat presses

Machine Width and heating Power and site notes from the product title
H-ROLLER/300/E4 (KB page) 300 mm, ⌀210 mm drum, electric 4 kW, 220 V, max 260 °C, for lanyards and ribbon
H-ROLLER/1600/E6 (KB page) 1,620 mm, electric, work table 220 V, about 6 kW, 2× feeding and take-up rollers, 32 A 6 mm² cable needed (not included), 32 A plug on a 40 A breaker suggested
H-ROLLER/1600/E6P (KB page) 1,620 mm, electric, work table As the E6 with a 3× roller set, adding a liner paper take-up
H-ROLLER/1700/OIL9 (KB page) 1,700 mm, 220 mm open drum, oil heating 9 kW, 220 V, 41 A 10 mm² cable needed (not included), 63 A plug and breaker suggested
H-ROLLER/1700/OIL12 (KB page) 1,700 mm, 220 mm open drum, oil heating 12 kW, 380 V, work table and take-up system, 32 A 4 mm² cable needed (not included)
H-ROLLER/3200/OIL35 (KB page) 3,200 mm, 420 mm drum, oil heating 35 kW, 380 V, 61 A 16 mm² cable needed (not included), 63 A plug and breaker suggested, 4 to 8 bar compressed air
H-ROLLER/3200/OIL58 (KB page) 3,200 mm, 420 mm open drum, oil heating 58 kW, 380 V, 110 A 35 mm² cable needed (not included), 125 A plug and breaker suggested, 4 to 8 bar compressed air

Oil-heated drums spread heat evenly across the full width, which matters on wide fabric. Electric 1,600 mm presses run on single-phase 220 V. See the 1700 industrial heat roller page, the oil heating roller heat press update and roll-to-roll heat presses category.

Roller parts and add-ons

More parts are listed under roller heat press components and heat press consumables.

Choosing an industrial press

  1. Cut pieces, garments or rigid sheets: a twin-station flat press. Pick 400 × 600 mm for garment fronts and DTF sheets, 600 × 800 mm for larger panels and aluminium.
  2. Roll-to-roll fabric: a roller press as wide as your printer's media. The 1,620 mm and 1,700 mm models suit 1.6 m to 1.8 m sublimation printers; the 3,200 mm models suit 3.2 m printers.
  3. Lanyards and ribbon: the 300 mm roller.
  4. Check your power before ordering. Wide oil rollers need three-phase 380 V, heavy cable and a large breaker; the 3,200 mm models also need compressed air.
  5. Plan the printer and paper with the press. See roller heat press with sublimation printers and digital printers.
