Rotary Sublimation Transfer Machine (Proofing Machine) ZS-BA1

Designing Equipment to Meet Actual Production Goals

The ZS-BA1 Rotary Sublimation Transfer Machine (Prototyping Machine) is designed for sublimation transfer prototyping and small-batch production on materials such as fabric rolls, cut pieces, footwear and headwear, handicrafts, and gifts.The machine features 10mm precision steel main wall panels and Italian CNC wire-cut technology, equipped with imported Taiwanese stainless steel heating tubes, a heat transfer oil heating system, and DuPont-branded felts,The drum has a diameter of 200 mm, and the effective transfer width is available in two standard specifications: 1,200 mm and 1,700 mm. Drum width and diameter can also be customized according to the customer’s actual production needs.

Equipment Advantages

1. Precision Steel Main Wall Panels, CNC Machining:The main wall panels (electrical enclosure) are constructed from 10mm-thick precision steel plates and processed using Italian CNC wire-cutting technology. This ensures excellent structural rigidity and high machining precision, providing the foundation for long-term, stable operation of the entire machine.
2. Imported Heating Tubes, Rapid Heating:The machine uses imported Taiwanese stainless steel heating tubes and heat transfer oil to directly heat the oil layer, reaching 200°C in approximately 45 minutes. This reduces startup wait times, making it ideal for frequent job changes typical of prototyping and small-batch production.
3. Automatic Alarm System:The automatic alarm system displays the current temperature in real time. When the temperature exceeds the set value, it automatically outputs an alarm signal and triggers a warning, allowing operators to promptly detect abnormalities and prevent overheating from affecting transfer results.
4. DuPont Raw Material Blanket:Features a 10 mm thick blanket made from imported DuPont raw materials from the U.S., ensuring excellent transfer results and a long service life, which helps maintain consistent transfer quality over the long term.
5. Universal Joint Bearing Structure:The machine utilizes a new type of universal joint bearing, which effectively reduces bearing wear, minimizes component wear and tear, and reduces the workload of daily maintenance.
6. Two Standard Width Options:Effective transfer widths are available in two standard specifications—1200 mm and 1700 mm—corresponding to actual roller widths of 1360 mm and 1860 mm, respectively. Models can be selected directly based on fabric width and prototyping requirements.
7. Customizable Specifications:In addition to standard models, various specifications can be customized according to customer needs, with drum widths up to 6 meters and diameters up to 2.5 meters, facilitating compatibility with subsequent mass-production machine configurations.

Applicable Industries and Use Cases

This machine is suitable for sublimation transfer printing on various materials, including fabrics, cut pieces, footwear and headwear, handicrafts, and gifts. It is primarily used for process prototyping prior to mass production, small-batch, high-variety orders, and test printing of customer-supplied materials.The compact design and rapid heating of the prototyping machine make it ideal for use in prototyping rooms, sample rooms, and small-batch production lines. By conducting test prints on actual fabrics and designs, process parameters such as temperature, pressure, speed, and tension can be verified in advance. Based on these results, the web width and configuration of mass-production machines can be determined, thereby reducing the risk associated with directly selecting mass-production equipment.

Technical Specifications

Key Specifications

Note:The above dimensions are for standard models; custom specifications are available upon request. Drum widths can reach up to 6 meters, and drum diameters up to 2.5 meters. We provide customers with suitable and practical configuration solutions; final specifications are subject to technical confirmation and the contract.

Operating and Safety Instructions

The equipment uses heat transfer oil for heating; the drum, heating elements, and oil lines reach high temperatures during operation. Protective gloves must be worn during operation and cleaning; direct contact with the drum and oil line components is strictly prohibited.Before loading or unloading material, replacing the felt, or adjusting the web width, the equipment must be shut down and it must be confirmed that the drum has come to a complete stop and the temperature is within a safe range. The equipment operates at a current of 25A / 32A and must be reliably grounded. The electrical cabinet must be kept dry and clean; non-professionals must not open it for maintenance.If the automatic alarm system triggers an over-temperature alert, immediately shut down the equipment and inspect the temperature control system; resume production only after confirming that the malfunction has been resolved. routinely check the heat transfer oil level, heating element wiring, universal joint bearing lubrication, and emergency stop switch status as specified in the manual. If oil leakage, unusual noises, or abnormal temperature fluctuations are detected, shut down the equipment immediately for inspection and repair.

Model Selection Recommendations

When selecting a model, first confirm the maximum print width required: for standard small samples and medium-width fabrics, choose the 1200mm model, which has an effective transfer width of 1200mm, an actual roller width of 1360mm, a machine current of 25A,machine power of 7 kW, equipment weight of 550 kg, and installation dimensions of 2400 × 1880 × 1050 mm;For fabrics requiring coverage of widths up to 1,700 mm, we recommend the 1,700 mm model, which has an actual drum width of 1,860 mm, a machine current of 32 A, a power rating of 9 kW, a weight of 650 kg,with installation dimensions correspondingly increasing to 2400×2180×1450mm. If future mass production requires a width exceeding the above range, custom models can be manufactured to order, with a roller width of up to 6 meters and a roller diameter of up to 2.5 meters.In addition, verify that the workshop’s power supply capacity meets the power requirements of 7 kW / 9 kW and the current requirements of 25 A / 32 A; reserve sufficient space for equipment placement and material feeding; and ensure that the workshop’s ventilation meets the operational requirements for the heat transfer oil heating equipment.

Applications
