Questions & Answers
Questions & Answers
What unique substrates can I press on a 24" x 40" platen?
The extended 24"×40" platen surface is specially sized for long-format items that do not fit on standard presses, such as denim jeans, webbing, straps, banners, towels, and oversized athletic gang sheets.
How does the electromagnetic auto-open feature work?
When the set countdown timer finishes, an internal magnet disengages, allowing the upper heating platen to pop open automatically. This prevents fabric scorching if the operator is busy loading another job.
What are the advantages of the slide-out lower drawer?
The lower platen pulls completely forward away from the upper heat platen. This allows operators to align graphics, lay out long fabrics, and thread garments comfortably without heat exposure to their hands and arms.
Does the ATLAS 24" x 40" Heat Press require an air compressor?
No, this model features manual clamping combined with an electromagnetic auto-open system, so no air compressor is required.
Where does the ATLAS 24" x 40" press ship from and how is service supported?
Orders ship directly from the primary distribution hub in California, supported by regional technical service and customer support teams across St. Louis, Atlanta, Phoenix, Orlando, and Des Moines.

Description
Expand your transfer versatility and handle long-format substrates with ease using the ATLAS 24" x 40" Auto Open Slide Out Heat Press. Specifically engineered for extended graphics and hard-to-fit items like denim jeans, webbing, straps, banners, towels, and oversized apparel, this large-format manual heat press gives commercial print shops and growing decorators the flexibility to press narrow and long materials with total precision.
Featuring an ergonomic slide-out lower platen, operators can quickly and safely lay out and align materials away from the heated upper structure. Once the set dwell time reaches zero, the electromagnetic auto-open mechanism automatically releases the press—preventing material scorching, reducing operator constant monitoring, and allowing boutique decorators and print studios across the Midwest, Southeast, and nationwide to maintain steady production with complete cost control.
