Questions & Answers

Where can I buy or arrange local pickup for the Geo. Knight DK32AP locally?

You can securely place your order online and choose convenient local pickup at either the Lawson Screen & Digital Products corporate headquarters in St. Louis, MO (Penrose Street) or our Atlanta area branch in Marietta, GA (Cobb Industrial Drive). Local pickup can also be coordinated through our satellite offices in Phoenix, Orlando, and Des Moines.

Does the Digital Knight DK32AP require an external air compressor?

Yes. Because it uses a top-down pneumatic piston drive to eliminate physical muscle clamping and automatically generate up to 6,000 lbs of pressure, a separate external air compressor is strictly required. Your shop's compressor must meet or exceed the minimum requirement of a 7-gallon storage tank delivering 1 cfm of continuous airflow at 100 PSI via a 3/8-inch air line.

How does the drawer-style loading format improve shop safety and speed?

Unlike traditional clamshell or swing-away models, the DK32AP utilizes a front-loading drawer layout. The lower bed smoothly rolls entirely out toward the operator. This creates a completely open, heat-free workspace to square up oversized fabric panels, garments, or thick wooden blanks cleanly without risking accidental arm burns from the upper heating element.

What are the exact electrical power requirements for this machine?

To efficiently heat a massive 26" x 32" commercial platen area, the DK32AP runs on high-power industrial lines. The machine operates on 220 Volts / Single Phase / 25 Amps, drawing 5,600 Watts of total power. A dedicated 30-amp workshop breaker is highly recommended.

Are crating and freight shipping fees included in the listed online price?

No. Due to the industrial weight of this large-format steel machinery, standard carrier parcel rates do not apply. Shipping, crating, and packaging fees are not included in the baseline price and will not reflect in your initial checkout cart total. The Lawson logistics team will contact you directly after order placement to provide a final customized freight and rigging quote.

What type of manufacturer warranty covers this automatic line?

Built to survive decades of continuous multi-shift manufacturing, this system is backed by Geo. Knight’s exceptional commercial warranty protection:

  • Lifetime Warranty on the Teflon-coated SuperCoil-Microwinding™ heat platen.
  • 1-Year Warranty on the entire press parts, frame, and digital controls, alongside FREE Lifetime Technical Support through Lawson and the manufacturer.

Can I finance the Geo. Knight DK32AP Large Format Heat Press?

Yes! If you are upgrading your sublimation shop, scaling a high-capacity direct-to-film line, or bundling your machinery with 24" wide-format plotters, commercial equipment financing options are available to protect your liquidity. You can apply quickly and securely via our Lawson financing page.

Are you looking to bridge the production gap between standard t-shirt platens and massive industrial-sized machinery without blowing your budget? The Geo. Knight DK32AP 26” x 32” Automatic Large Format Press is a heavy-duty, pneumatic powerhouse engineered by Geo. Knight & Co. It is the ultimate commercial printing solution built to match 24"-width printer outputs perfectly, making it an incredible choice for sublimation cut-pieces, oversized direct-to-film (DTF) graphics, sports jerseys, and high-end signage blanks.

The key commercial advantage of the Digital Knight DK32AP lies in its high-pressure, space-saving design. Operating via a smooth, drawer-style front-loading layout, the lower table glides out completely from beneath the heating zone, allowing operators to safely organize and layer transfers without working under intense heat. When activated by the dual-button safety circuit, its top-down pneumatic drive applies up to an unshakeable 6,000 lbs of maximum applied force. Utilizing patented SuperCoil-Microwinding™ heater technology inside an ultra-thick, Teflon-coated assembly, it ensures absolute edge-to-edge temperature uniformity with zero cold spots. This makes it highly optimized for long runs of DTF transfers, large-format sublimation prints, screen printed transfers, and hard substrates like Chromaluxe metal panels, woods, glass, and ceramics.

Constructed with a heavy-duty solid steel welded frame and anchored on rugged locking casters, this 790 lb automatic behemoth can accommodate materials up to 2" thick to bring retail-ready precision to your automated production department.

📍 Local Pickup & Freight Options: Skip the expensive shipping guesswork! In-store local pickup is available at our St. Louis, MO (HQ) and Atlanta / Marietta, GA hubs. Because this large-format pneumatic press weighs 790 lbs (1,100 lbs shipping weight), specialized vehicle transport or heavy-freight handling is required. Simply check local availability or contact us to coordinate before heading over.
