Title: Dual Heat Press
Post by: cleveprint on October 13, 2025, 01:01:31 PM
Anyone running one of the dual heat presses that are hydraulic? Similar to the link below. Im trying to steer clear of air for logistic purposes of where my air is located and I like the idea of an automatic down and up.

Im sure they are all Chinese made, but wasn't sure if anyone had some success with something similar.

We bought one several months ago and it has been great. I questioned China made but this one seems to be built heavy duty and good workmanship.
Looks like it would be easy to work on. If you buy one there is a 10% code they have been posting on line.

Here is another source. They sell MEM and have great customer service. Just another option. I have one of the duals and it turns out the work!

I bought a MEM TQ40x50 directly from MEM for $940.00
I am not sure how your tarriffs and shipping works but it's a great press.
If you do order a press get extra platens, sleeve, square for small bags, etc.

No experience and I bet they work great but unless it's basically impossible to run an air line I would stick with pneumatic.
Hydraulic machines are going to have a lot more moving parts to wear out/diagnose.
