Manual 15" x 15" Platen and Splitter Stand
The NEW HIX® EVO TOUCH HT Series manual clamshell heat presses have been a mainstay of the graphics industry for 60 years because they’re rugged, durable, and built to perform. Underneath the new paint and graphics, they now feature a full color LCD touchscreen controller with a wide array of features and a new high-performance molded rubber pad that is highly resistant to pressure.
At the heart of these presses is the heat casting that is manufactured in-house using an exclusive aluminum alloy to maximize the heat transfer. The floating lower platen helps to provide even pressure from edge to edge at all temperatures and even works on thicker substrates. The easy to open and close handle is equipped with a spring assist, a full range pressure adjustment, and adds 20% more pressure compared to straight handle designs.
KEY FEATURES:
Clamshell
Top Pressure Plate – The handle attaches to a 4″x5″ pressure plate on the top platen instead of a single screw going into the top platen. This provides more even pressure on the outside edges of the press (think of it as pushing down with your entire hand, versus just your thumb).
Display
Easy integrated digital time and temperature settings – Color LCD touchscreen controller allows simple dialing in of time and temperature. The current pressure is displayed on the touch-screen display each time the press closes. Now with user presets available to save the settings of your most common products.
Design
A cantilevered Splitter Stand is available for purchase as a separate accessory item, allowing for the operators to “dress” the shirt easily over the lower platen, keeping the back of the shirt positioned underneath the machine and away from the heat and compression. This is handy when trying to avoid double-compression and heating of a previously applied transfer on the same shirt.
The HIX SwingMan Series heat presses are for the professional who is serious about high quality impressions, maximum production, and safety. They are completely at home when using textile transfers but really excel when sublimating on any substrate, thick or thin, due to absolute vertical pressure and a heat casting that swings out of your way almost 180° while setting up the artwork.
What makes the SwingMan Series standout from the competition is its ability to apply over 1200 lbs of downward force with very little effort. Our exclusive linkage system provides a mechanical advantage where a small amount of force on the handle produces a much larger force on the substrate.
KEY FEATURES:
Press
The SwingMan sets the industry standard in heat press design for sublimation and textile heat transfer production. This will provide incredible advantages to the operator – reducing fatigue and increasing productivity. With temperature settings that range up to 450º F, and full-range repeatable pressure adjustments for items up to 1-3/4” thick. With a 20" x 25" area the swing away design makes this press great for those detailed and complex jobs.

Easy integrated digital time and temperature settings – Color LCD touchscreen controller allows simple dialing in of time and temperature. The current pressure is displayed on the touch-screen display each time the press closes. Now with user presets available to save the settings of your most common products.
Design
What makes the Swingman stands out from all others is the ability to apply over 1200 lbs of downward force with very little effort. Our exclusive progressive linkage method provides a mechanical advantage where a small amount of force on the hand end produces a much larger force on the press end. With the Swingman at maximum pressure, you can literally open and close the press with two fingers!
