Cure and press with one machine The Ricoma HP-1620 supports both stages of the DTF heat-application process. Cure your DTF prints The heated upper platen can hover above the printed and powdered DTF film without touching it. This provides the heat needed to melt and cure the adhesive powder. Apply your transfers Once cured, place the DTF transfer onto your chosen garment and use the machine in pressing mode to apply it. The adjustable time, temperature and pressure controls help you achieve consistent results across different garments. Key features Adjustable hover function Cure DTF adhesive powder by positioning the heated upper platen above the film without making direct contact. Large 16" × 20" platen The generous 40 × 50 cm working area accommodates large designs or multiple smaller transfers. Automatic opening The heat press opens automatically when the programmed cycle finishes, helping to prevent over-pressing and making production easier. Touchscreen controls Quickly set and manage your pressing time and temperature using the touchscreen control panel. Adjustable pressure Fine-tune the pressure to suit different garments, transfer materials and fabric thicknesses. Even heat distribution Consistent heat across the full platen helps deliver reliable curing and pressing results. Flat and tubular loading Load garments flat or position them around the lower platen so that only one side is pressed. This helps avoid unwanted pressure on seams, zips and the reverse side of the garment.
