Vector Auto Open Cap & Label Press

Take your custom hat, neck label, and small-format decorating business to the next level with the VECTOR VCap Heat Press. Engineered for maximum versatility, consistent heat application, and effortless operation, this compact cap press gives print shops across North America the ultimate flexibility needed for high-margin customization projects. Equipped with an enhanced digital time and temperature control system alongside a gas shock-assisted auto-opening system, the VECTOR VCap streamlines workflow and prevents scorching by automatically releasing upon cycle completion. Its wide 50-degree opening angle gives operators clear, safe access to load and unload caps and small garments effortlessly. Beyond standard cap transfers, the VECTOR VCap comes fully loaded with 4 interchangeable lower platens and an additional 5.9" x 5.9" heat plate, allowing you to seamlessly transition between headwear, neck tags, sleeve logos, pocket prints, and specialty items without investing in multiple single-purpose machines. Distributed and backed by Lawson Workhorse Group, a trusted industry leader in screen printing, DTF, and heat transfer technology, the VECTOR VCap delivers commercial-grade reliability to help your shop grow.
