Questions & Answers

Where can I buy or arrange local pickup for the MEM 5"x5" Two Platen Heat Press?
You can place your order online and arrange convenient local pickup at either the Lawson Screen & Digital Products headquarters in St. Louis, MO, or our Atlanta branch in Marietta, GA. Pickup coordination can also be arranged through satellite support centers in Phoenix, Orlando, and Des Moines.

Does the MEM 5"x5" Two Platen Heat Press require an air compressor?
Yes. As a pneumatic heat press, it requires a clean, regulated compressed air connection to actuate the high-pressure pressing cylinder.

What applications are best suited for the MEM 5"x5" heat press?
This press is optimized for small-format decorating, including DTF neck labels, left-chest logos, pocket prints, sleeve designs, hats/patches, and small promotional accessories.

How does the two-platen system improve shop production?
The two-platen system allows a single operator to continuously load, align, and prep a garment on Station A while Station B is under the heater being pressed. This eliminates downtime between presses and significantly increases hourly output.

Is technical support and service available for MEM heat presses through LWG?
Yes! Lawson Workhorse Group provides technical support, operating guidance, and replacement parts out of our primary facilities in St. Louis and Atlanta, as well as our regional centers across the country.

Description

Looking to streamline small-format garment customization, sleeve branding, and patch application without sacrificing speed or consistent clamping pressure? The MEM 5″x5″ Two Platen Heat Press is an industrial-grade dual-station pneumatic heat press engineered specifically for high-speed small-logo decorating. Designed to handle continuous production cycles in commercial print shops, this dual-bed machine allows an operator to load and align transfers on one station while the heat head is actively pressing on the other.

The primary operational benefit of the MEM 5"x5" Dual Platen Press lies in its smooth pneumatic actuation and dual-station workflow. Powered by clean air pressure, it delivers consistent down-force across the entire 5" x 5" platen area, eliminating operator fatigue and variable pressure issues common with manual presses. It is ideal for applying Direct-to-Film (DTF) neck labels, heat transfer vinyl (HTV) chest logos, embroidered and leatherette patches, and sleeve prints. The side-to-side shuttle movement ensures maximum hourly throughput while keeping workflow continuous.

Constructed on a heavy-duty steel chassis with an advanced digital microprocessor control panel, this pneumatic double-station press brings high-efficiency precision, ergonomics, and speed to demanding print shops.
