Supplier's note

  1. Technical Breakthroughs:

    • The Pro Model’s ±1% pressure control ensures flawless sublimation on delicate materials.
    • Auto-temperature calibration (Pro) reduces setup time by 40% compared to industry standards.
    • Full automation (Pro) enables 25 units/hour—20% faster than traditional semi-automatic models.
  2. Version Selection Guidance:

    • Base Model: Ideal for small workshops or hobbyists prioritizing affordability. Its manual controls suit low-volume, precision projects.
    • Advanced Model: Best for medium-scale operations needing semi-automation. The improved pressure control handles thicker materials like leather effectively.
    • Pro Model: Perfect for high-volume production. Its 220°C max temperature and full automation make it unmatched for sublimating complex designs on synthetic blends.

With the Pro’s triple-layer heat retention system, you can achieve 30% faster drying times—critical for mass-producing flip-flops without compromising quality. Pair this with its ±1% pressure precision, and you ensure consistent design clarity even on textured surfaces.
