Stahls' Hotronix Auto Open Clam Heat Press
Never scorch a garment again. The Auto Open Clam automatically pops open the moment your press time ends, so transfers can't over-press while you're handling other tasks. A Platinum RTD heat sensor and cast-in tubular heating elements every 2" keep the platen cold-spot-free for even, reliable curing — making it one of the most dependable clamshells in a busy DTF shop.
Key Features
- Automatic pop-open — opens at the end of the cycle to prevent scorching and over-pressing.
- Cold-spot-free heating — cast-in tubular elements every 2" for even temperature.
- Platinum RTD heat sensor — accurate, consistent temperature control.
- Over-center pressure adjustment — easy, even pressure setting.
- Three sizes — 11"x15", 16"x16", or 16"x20"; interchangeable platens optional.
