1. Introduction Omega Series
1000 Press
The Omega Series 1000 Press
is a pneumatically operated heat press
for transfer printing and material fusing. It is ideal for high volume
production with low operator fatigue.
The work areas of the
Omega Series 1000 Press are 38 cm x 50 cm
(15
in x 20 in)
but machines may have special order, optional smaller sized
interchangeable worktables of any size and various shapes within these
table sizes.
The Omega Series 1000 Press
has a heat plate which moves from one
worktable to the other, enabling the operator to be actively pressing on
one table while loading/ unloading the other table. After loading the
work piece and with the correct settings for temperature pressure and
dwell time, the cycle is started by simultaneously pressing the two green
buttons on the front of the head within ½ second. The controller
operates the timer and the solenoid valve and thus the pneumatic
cylinder. When the set time elapses the table is automatically lifted,
enabling the head to be swung away. The worktable may then be
unloaded and reloaded ready for another cycle.
The Omega Series 1000 Press
is produced in one version, nominally
230 Volts AC for the European market.
It is a simple operation
to remove the worktable and replace it with
one of a different size.
