Geo-Knight DK20SP Digital Knight 16" x 20" Air Automatic Heat Press - DK20SP
The Digital Knight DK20SP 16" x 20" is an air-operated automatic table top swing-away heat transfer press. The DK20SP provides a production-oriented heat press with the benefits of push-button operation, fully digital temperature & time control, and solid casting design with an affordable automatic heat press price.
The DK20SP utilizes the same Digital Knight control system as the DK20S series and operates with a smooth swing-away fashion instead of shuttling. For demanding press runs and super consistent results, the DK20SP is an ideal press for meeting requirements that go beyond what a manual transfer press and operator can handle. The DK20SP is the industrial-grade midrange solution for heavy duty manual heat presses.
This heat press is well known in the industry as the top-end robust workhorse of all swing-away heat presses.
