Questions & Answers

Q: What electrical specifications are required for the Quartz Express Flash Unit?
A: The Quartz Express Flash Unit requires a 230 Volt, 1-Phase, 45 Amp electrical connection to operate its high-output quartz heating array.

Q: Can this flash unit be used on both automatic and manual screen printing presses?
A: Yes. While it is optimized for high-speed automatic presses like the Lawson Trooper, its height-adjustable frame and sensor controls make it adaptable to most manual presses.

Q: How does air-knife technology improve flash curing?
A: Air-knife technology blows controlled air across the garment surface while flashing, which accelerates water evaporation, provides uniform heat distribution, and cools the shirt quickly for immediate subsequent printing.

Q: Where can I see a demo or schedule regional pickup for the Quartz Express?
A: You can schedule a live demonstration or arrange regional equipment pickup at Lawson Workhorse Group facilities in St. Louis, MO or Marietta, GA.

Description

The Quartz Express Instant-On Flash Curing unit is a high-performance electric flash cure system engineered for high-volume screen printing operations. Designed specifically for automatic t-shirt presses—such as the Lawson Trooper—and adaptable for manual presses, this unit features six high-power quartz bulbs that deliver instant thermal response and rapid ink flashing. Built-in air-knife technology ensures uniform heat distribution and garment cooling, maximizing throughput while minimizing platen warping and shop ambient heat. Equipped with heavy-duty rolling casters, adjustable height settings, and sensor-activated controls, the Lawson Quartz Express offers commercial print facilities in St. Louis, Atlanta, and across North America a fast, energy-efficient flash solution.

The LWG Difference

  • Local Fast Pickup & Demo Hubs: Inspect equipment in person or arrange fast pickup at regional facilities in St. Louis, MO or Atlanta / Marietta, GA.
  • Instant On/Off Energy Efficiency: Sensor-activated quartz elements instantly reach curing temperature during flashing and power down between cycles, saving electricity and lowering energy bills.
  • Reduced Platen Heat & Warping: Instant thermal response keeps heat focused on the garment surface rather than scorching or overheating rubber/aluminum platens.
  • Integrated Air-Knife Technology: Moves air across the shirt surface to accelerate moisture evaporation and cool garments quickly for the next print color.

Comparison Table

FEATURE Lawson Quartz Express Flash Unit Standard Radiant / IR Flash Units
Energy Consumption Instant-on sensors power quartz bulbs only during flash cycles Continuous IR panels run constantly, wasting electricity when the press is idle
Thermal Management Air-knife technology and fast bulb shut-off prevent platen overheating Continuous radiant heat continuously bakes platens, causing warping and sticking
Flash Cycle Speed Rapid quartz heating flashes ink significantly faster for higher daily output Slower infrared heat transfer requires longer dwell times, dragging down production
Factory Backing USA engineering with stocked domestic replacement lamps and sockets Overseas imports with long delays for specialized electronic and quartz replacement parts
