Sublimation presses are used for a special type of ink that engrains itself into the cloth in order to make the design last longer and typically provide higher quality graphics because it presses evenly. Good for mass production products.

Swing Away Vs. Clamshell

When you’re buying a new heat press you need to look for the kind that will work the best with the products that you’re going to work with. As mentioned above, there are a ton of different types of heat presses but within these types there is also an option to get a swing away or a clamshell press.

Clamshell heat presses refer to presses that have an upper and lower heat platen that open up like a clam would. The user lifts and shuts the press by using the upper heat platen. This type of press is useful for beginners because it is much easier to use and is easily portable. It does not work very well for thicker fabrics.

Swing away heat presses refer to presses that have an upper platen that swings away from the lower platen. It’s the preferred type of press because it allows for a larger quantity of fabric to be printed at a time, helps to keep the user from making contact with the upper platen, and makes it easier to lay out the fabric. However, it does require more space and experienced users.
