Digital Knight Clamshell Presses

by Geo. Knight & Co. Inc

For the past 4 decades, we have perfected a line of heat transfer press equipment that meets the business and manufacturing needs of customers worldwide. The following presses represent our standard and traditional line of commercial grade heat presses.

The Digital Knight clamshell heat presses feature a state-of-the-art control system and heavy-duty solid steel welded framework. These machines boasts a lifetime warranty on the heat platen, and an unprecedented 3-year warranty on the heat-control electronics. The heat platens use SuperCoil-Microwinding heater technology, a system of embedded heater windings that wind tightly and closely together throughout the entire platen for extremely even heat, fast recovery & fast heat up times. The clamshell opening action pulls up and away from the loading table allowing for full unrestricted access to the platen. Gas spring hydraulic lifters provide a smooth, hands free opening action of the heater. The Digital Knight controller utilizes an easy to read oversized-digit LCD display to show time and temperature simultaneously, and the temperature readout is accurate within +-2°. The controller also features a digital height/pressure gauge for displaying current height settings. The operator can use the 70 programmable presets for saving common application settings of Temp/Time/Pressure, ensuring consistent, repeatable results for all applications.

For a serious business tool and profit making machine, the Digital Knight line of presses are un-matchable in performance and cost. The Digital Knight line of presses combine a heavy-duty solid steel industrial grade pressing framework with accurate and easy to use electronics to provide the operator with the best possible features and equipment needed for today¹s various heat transfer applications.

The following machines offer every size and feature possible in a standard manual transfer press. Deciding on which model is right for you involves a few simple considerations. First, what size heater block do you require? The major difference in all of these units would fall under that criteria. Do you need flat or curved press (T-shirts or caps)? How large is your transfer possibly going to be, and therefore how large does the heat platen need to be? The answer to this question will help clarify the correct choice. Contact us with any questions you may have, if you would like any help in deciding which press would be appropriate for your particular heat transfer needs, or if you have a specialapplication that may require custom features.
