WHAT IS SUBLIMATION?
Sublimation is a chemical process that depends on molecular bonding. It requires precise heat press settings for three aspects: time, temperature and pressure.
CHOOSING A SUBLIMATION HEAT PRESS
A heat press may look like an unsophisticated piece of equipment, but what you don’t see makes a difference when it comes to reliability and results.
KEY REQUIREMENTS WHEN CHOOSING YOUR HEAT PRESS.
PLATEN CONFIGURATION
Most sublimation substrates are pressed using a flat heat press, these are available in several sizes.
PLATEN SIZE
Platen size is the most important factor when choosing a heat press, as it determines the maximum image sizes that can be applied.
Equal heat across the entire surface is important for high-quality sublimation.
MANUAL OR PNEUMATIC
Platen pressure is controlled by adjusting a knob, which activates a jack-screw system that raises or lowers the upper platen in relation to the lower platen.
The gap should be increased or decreased, depending on the item’s thickness or thinness.
