ID Press Inc. builds heat presses for print shops, apparel brands and makers growing a business. We care about three things, and we design every machine around them.
Even heat
The same temperature in every corner of the platen, so prints come out the same every time.
Steady pressure
The first shirt and the five hundredth get exactly the same squeeze.
Real support
A free video call to set up your press, and people who answer when you need help.
Your first press day
Here is what the first 30 minutes look like.
Tap each step. This is the Machine #A, the AutoClam is even quicker.

Plug in power and air
Plug into a 220V outlet, click the air hose onto your compressor and switch on. The platen reaches 400°F in about 12 minutes while you finish setting up.

Sublimation
Air does the pressing for you, so your arms stay fresh at the end of a long run. The top swings away and the base slides out, so you lay out every shirt far from the heat.
Machine #A press, 16 x 20 in lower platen with silicone pad, air hose and quick coupler, Teflon sheet, power cord, and a quick start card. Needs a 220V outlet and a compressor that holds 60 to 100 psi.
For small spaces
Machine #B
Side business
Event booths
Custom orders
Standard outlet
A real professional press that fits on a desk and plugs into any wall outlet. When the timer ends, it opens on its own, so a transfer never overcooks while you trim the next one.
