Scale confidently with production-ready manual & automatic presses, precise LED exposure units, efficient flash modules, cure-verified conveyor dryers, registration systems, platens, and shop tools. We map equipment to your throughput, then ship fast with great shipping rates across the Las Vegas Valley—so approvals, events, tournaments, and retail drops stay on schedule.
Startups lean on rugged manuals for flexibility; growing shops graduate to automatics for repeatable registration and sustained cycle speed under deadline. Micro-registration, rock-solid indexers, and balanced print heads protect fine detail and reduce operator fatigue. Add tooling like tri-loc/pin systems to preserve setup gains on reruns—critical when a three-day event returns next month with the same artwork and tighter timelines.
Choose platen mixes that match your order book: youth, sleeve, pocket, zip-hood, and cap platens increase versatility. Quick-change pallets and consistent off-contact settings minimize downtime between styles. For specialty placements (chest hits on heavy hoodies or hem prints on drapey triblends), keep a set of leveling shims and heat-resistant pads to maintain parallelism and avoid squeegee deflection at the edges.
LED exposure (365–405 nm) gives tight timing, fast cycles, and low heat—perfect for predictable stencils in a busy Las Vegas schedule. Ensure glass cleanliness and vacuum contact; under-vacuum allows light creep that rounds corners and eats fine type. Keep a 21-step wedge handy for each emulsion family; re-test when bulbs are replaced or panels age. Track minutes/seconds per emulsion/mesh combo on a laminated card at the unit to make success repeatable between shifts.
For deep crosslinking on ultra-thick stencils or high-density special effects, legacy metal halide still has a place. We’ll help you balance throughput and stencil performance, then document washout targets so highlights open cleanly without eroding edges.
Flashes stabilize underbases and block fibrillation, but too much energy bakes the print and kills intercoat adhesion. Stage flashes just long enough to lay fibers; verify with a quick touch—tacky, not glossy. Keep heads aligned to avoid hot spots and uneven shrinkage. Add cooling fans at the unload station during summer heat to keep garments from re-flowing on the belt.
Right-size belt width for your typical platen spread (e.g., three-up adult tees), and choose tunnel length/BTUs to meet peak volume without slowing print cadence. Map temperature profiles with a wired probe and donuts—measure at garment level, not air. For poly blockers and stacked colors, log dwell/temperature for each combo so operators stop guessing during rush jobs. Maintain clean filters and clear exhaust paths; good airflow equals steady heat and fewer dye-related headaches.
Pin registration, tri-loc jigs, and pre-registration templates slash setup times and protect micro-alignment on repeats. Add tension meters, durometer gauges, probe thermometers, and densitometers to turn “feel” into measurable, teachable targets. Keep a maintenance cart with spare squeegee blades, flood bars, bearings, and index pawls—critical parts at arm’s reach keep you printing when a last-minute reorder lands.
Plan clear load/unload lanes, a straight path to the dryer infeed, and safe outfeed space that doesn’t congest folding/boxing. Confirm electrical capacity and air requirements before delivery; nothing stalls a go-live faster than missing power runs or undersized compressors. Vent heat safely, especially during Vegas summers—temperatures at the press shouldn’t fatigue operators. Place PPE racks at dip tanks and washout stations, and keep SDS binders visible.
We coordinate delivery windows, access routes, and placement, then walk through first-stencil exposures and first-print pulls. Your crew gets a laminated checklist: off-contact, squeegee angle/pressure, flash dwell, belt temp, and QC (stretch/return, spectro on brand colors). First-article sign-offs reduce callbacks and make reruns predictable—vital when an event series returns with the same art and tighter dates.
We serve Las Vegas, Paradise, Spring Valley, North Las Vegas, and Henderson. When deadlines compress—conventions, festivals, league playoffs—ask for split shipments: fixtures and accessories first, then full equipment or added modules. This keeps operators productive while final components arrive just in time.
Check live availability for presses & dryers, emulsions/screens, and pressroom tools. Our online sales experience, great shipping rates, and in-stock support products (squeegees, platens, adhesives) keep installations smooth and production stable.
Estimate daily output, color count, and garment mix. Choose a press that sustains the target cycles without operator fatigue, then match a conveyor dryer’s belt width/length and BTUs to cure at full pace. We provide install coordination, in-stock accessories, and great shipping rates across the Valley.
Add pin/tri-loc registration to slash setup times. Keep a laminated exposure chart at the LED unit; re-validate after panel changes. Map dryer temps with a surface probe at garment level—document cure checks (stretch/return) for each ink and garment type.
Manual or automatic press—what fits my shop?
We size by throughput, color count, footprint, labor, and power. Automate once registration stability or cycle time caps profit.
How do I choose a conveyor dryer?
Match belt width/length/BTUs to inks and peak volume; we validate temperature profiles and share cure-check procedures.
LED vs. metal halide exposure?
LED gives speed and consistency; metal halide excels on deep crosslink jobs. We set target times with a 21-step wedge.
Can you help with layout and utilities?
Yes—workflow, power, air, and ventilation planning so installs go live without surprises.
Is shipping fast across Las Vegas?
We coordinate delivery windows and leverage great shipping rates for Paradise, Spring Valley, and North Las Vegas.
Manual or automatic press—how do I choose?
We size by throughput, color count, footprint, crew, and power. Automate once registration/cycle-time caps profit.
How do I pick a conveyor dryer?
Match belt width/length + BTUs to ink systems and peak volume; verify temperature at garment level.
LED vs. metal halide?
LED for speed/consistency; metal halide for very thick stencils. We set times via a 21-step wedge.
Layout/utilities help?
Yes—workflow, power, air, and ventilation planning to keep installs smooth in Las Vegas heat.
Fast local shipping?
Yes—coordinated windows and great rates into Paradise, Spring Valley, and North Las Vegas.
