Vastex International have introduced a 120-volt/1,950-watt version of its 46 cm-square RedFlash Infrared Flash Cure Unit, complementing its existing 240-volt/2,600-watt model of the same size.
"With the new 120-volt RedFlash, customers lacking a 240-volt receptacle need not forgo high-performance flash curing of screen-printed garments,"
says Mark Vasilantone, Vastex president.
The RD-18-120 features a low-profile head (7 cm), digital temperature control for precise, repeatable settings, an integrated cooling fan, and a heavy-duty floor stand.
An optional Auto-Flash upgrade can connect directly to the unit and adds HMI controls that rotate the head into place above the pallet at the touch of a foot pedal, then rotate it away automatically after a user-adjustable dwell time — preventing over- and under-flashing of garments.
Also available is a Rotary Pallet Adapter with two vented steel pallets, enabling drying as well as flash curing.
All RedFlash Infrared Flash Cure Units carry a 5-year heater warranty and come standard with a head leveler for parallel alignment to the pallet, extra-large side handles, heat controls with power indicator lights, and a vertical adjustment collar allowing 360° rotation.
Vastex also offer flash cure units in sizes up to 46 x 61 cm with heaters up to 3.5 kilowatts at 240V, along with infrared conveyor dryers for DTF, DTG, and screen printing; screen printing presses in one to 10 colours and one to 10 stations; screen exposing units; screen drying cabinets; screen registration systems; and complete screen printing shop systems.
