HEAT PRESS Air Automatics - Geo Knight, Hix, Stahls Hotronix, Insta Press & AIT/Astex

Bottom heater platen available! (See options on right)

Bottom heat platens are ideal for double-sided products such as car flags, bag tags, holiday ornaments, lanyard badges, etc. Because each platen utilizes fully independent digital control boxes and Geo Knight® SuperCoil-Microwinding™ heater technology, the presses can be easily adjusted to also provide traditional top-only heat or bottom-only heat when needed.

The Digital Combo DC16AP is an air-operated, automatic 14x16 swing-away heat press with optional interchangeable heat platens and tables. For users who desire the table-top footprint of the Digital Combo, and need its versatility, but desire a more productive automatic pressing and automatic release action, the DC16AP is the perfect machine. This press is also used heavily for large quantity small label application, with the smaller 6"x8" label press head and bottom tables. All attachments used on the manual Digital Combo press including the Cap, Plate, Tile, Cube, Twin-Shuttle, and even bottom heat are fully compatible with the Air Operated Automatic Digital Combo press.

Included with this heat press is a felt pad
(used for tile printing) at no Additional Cost!

Bottom heat platens are ideal for double-sided products such as car flags, bag tags, holiday ornaments, lanyard badges, etc. Because each platen utilizes fully independent digital control boxes and Geo Knight® SuperCoil-Microwinding™ heater technology, the presses can be easily adjusted to also provide traditional top-only heat or bottom-only heat when needed.

The Geo Knight AIR is the next step up from the Manual version. This automatic press is provides massive amounts of pressure due to its dual air-bag, 10-ton/20,000 lbs max force pneumatic pressing system. The heavy steel triple reinforced welded C-Frame design is built to withstand a lifetime of intense pressing and automatic operation, and allows for full draping of materials over the front, left and right sides of the press, without hindrance. The electronic digital temperature control maintains even heat across the entire surface of the heater, and the timer automatically starts when the press is activated and automatically releases the press when elapsed. For a large format heavy pressure automatic press that is one step below the larger industrial 931 Triton machines, the AIR is the solution.
