The Magic Transfer Company named HPD reseller
T
he Magic Transfer Company has been appointed as an official reseller of the new HPD twin table pneumatic heat press, designed for production transfer applications. With the new machine being launched by Xpres earlier in the year, The Magic Transfer Company said the new model has been developed to support the continued growth of direct to film (DTF) transfer production, offering garment decorators an affordable solution for fast and consistent pressing.
The pneumatic operation is designed to reduce operator fatigue while maintaining consistent pressure, and twin laser positioning guides enable accurate transfer alignment. A smooth sliding element allows operators to prepare one garment while pressing another, helping to improve production efficiency. The machine also features a touchscreen control panel with two programmable countdown timers for alternating press cycles between the twin table bases. Increased platen clearance is designed to make positioning larger garments, including hoodies, sweatshirts and jackets, easier. The HPD Twin Table includes three interchangeable platens measuring 18x18cm, 30x35cm and 18x38cm, suitable for applications including garments, sleeves, bags and umbrellas.
