Questions & Answers

Q: Will the SFB Flashback reduce the number of colors I can print on my automatic press?
A: No. Unlike traditional flash cure units that occupy an entire print head station, the Workhorse SFB Flashback Flash Unit allows you to print, flash, and cool at the exact same station, preserving your full color capacity.

Q: What is the benefit of the E-Chain wire follower?
A: The E-Chain safely routes and protects all electrical connections away from intense quartz element heat while providing smoother shuttle movement over the garment.

Q: Can I connect and run multiple SFB Flashback units on the same press?
A: Yes. Each unit includes a DB-9 control box port that lets you daisy-chain multiple flash units together so they communicate and trigger synchronously on your press.

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