FAQ Section

Q: What is better, a heat press or Cricut?
A: A Cricut cuts designs, while a heat press bonds them professionally. For shirt businesses, our 40x50cm heat press delivers faster production (50+ shirts/hour) and commercial-grade durability that Cricut machines can’t match.

Q: What do you need to make shirts with a heat press?
A: Heat Transfer Material

HTV (Heat Transfer Vinyl) – For cut designs (e.g., Siser EasyWeed)

Sublimation Paper & Ink – For full-color prints (requires polyester shirts)

DTF (Direct-to-Film) Transfers – No weeding, works on most fabrics

Design Tools

Cutting machine (e.g., Cricut, Silhouette) for HTV designs

Sublimation printer (e.g., Epson EcoTank) for ink-based transfers

Essential Accessories

Teflon Sheets – Protect designs during pressing

Heat-Resistant Tape – Secure transfers in place

Infrared Thermometer – Verify plate temperature

Apparel & Prep

100% cotton or polyester-blend shirts (pre-washed)

Parchment Paper – Prevent ink bleed-through (for sublimation)

Q: What temperature should I heat press T-shirts?
A: For 100% cotton, use 350°F for 15 seconds. Polyester blends: 320°F for 12 seconds. Our digital controller maintains ±1°F accuracy to prevent scorching.
