Vector 15” x 15” Auto Open Slide Out Heat Press

Streamline your apparel decorating workflow with the Vector 15" x 15" Auto Open Slide Out Heat Press (Model V1515-AS). Designed for growing apparel brands, small businesses, and commercial print shops across North America, this reliable clam-shell press combines electromagnetic auto-release technology with a operator-friendly drawer design. Equipped with an auto-open release system, the heating platen automatically opens when the timer countdown reaches zero. This safeguards your garments from scorching and allows operators to safely multi-task during production runs. The slide-out lower drawer allows you to layout, position, and thread garments completely outside the heating zone, minimizing burn risks and speeding up garment loading. Powered by a gas shock-assisted opening mechanism, the machine operates smoothly without harsh rebounding. Simple, intuitive digital time and temperature controls deliver consistent heat distribution and clamping pressure for DTF transfers, HTV vinyl, sublimation, and custom screen-printed transfers.
