The roller heat press machines

A roller (roll-to-roll or calendar) heat press feeds printed sublimation paper and fabric together around a heated drum, with a felt blanket holding them against the drum. It is used for banners, flags, sportswear and other long runs of fabric. Electric models heat the drum directly; oil models heat oil inside the drum for a more even temperature across wide fabric.

Heating, electrical and drive motor parts

SKU What it is Product Sales price incl. VAT
H-ROLLER/12KW/KIT (KB) Electrical connection kit for the heating element of roller presses up to 12kW 12kW Heating Element Electrical Connection Kit for up to 12kW Roller Heat Press Machines R 193.20
H-ROLLER/1700/RING (KB) Slip ring (collecting ring) that carries power to the turning drum of the 1700 oil-heated press Slip Ring for 1700 Oil Heating Roller Heat Press, Collecting Ring Replacement R 6 164.00

H-PRESS/MOTOR/90W (KB) 220V 90W variable-speed motor with gearbox head (motor 51K90RGU-CF, gearbox 5GU-100K) that turns the drum 220v 90w Variable Speed Regulating Motor with Gearbox Head for Roller Heat Press, 51K90RGU-CF, 5GU-100K R 5 888.00
H-PRESS/MOTOR/90P (KB) Speed feedback pulse sensor for the H-PRESS/MOTOR/90W motor Motor Speed Feedback Pulse Measurement Sensor for H-PRESS/MOTOR/90W Roller Heat Press Motor R 506.00

The slip ring lets power reach the heating element while the drum turns, so a worn ring can cause unstable heating. The PT100 probe tells the controller the drum temperature; a faulty probe gives wrong readings or uneven heat, and the replacement video below shows the wiring. The 90W motor sets the drum speed, and its pulse sensor reports the speed back to the controller.

These parts carry the fabric and paper through the press: the feeding bar brackets set the roll tension as material goes in, the stretching bar keeps it flat, and the take-up brackets and cone bar wind up the finished fabric and used paper. The seamless Nomex felt blanket presses the material against the drum; a new blanket needs preparation before first use, which the blanket care video below shows. The deskew feeder keeps wide fabric running straight on long jobs.

Prices are current Buythis prices including VAT from the product dump dated 2026-10-20. Some prices come from slightly older dump entries (2026-10-18, 2026-10-19). Check the product page before ordering, since prices change.

How to choose the right part

  1. Check the press model on the machine label or invoice: the width (1600, 1700 or 3200mm), whether it is electric or oil heated, and the voltage.
  2. Match the part to that model. Most parts above name the press they fit; brackets, bars and the PT100 probe are for the 1600 electric press, while the slip ring and 970108 bearing are for the 1700 press.
  3. Note the old part's numbers (motor and gearbox model, bearing number, gear teeth) and compare them before ordering.
  4. Watch the setup and repair videos below before fitting.
