Questions & Answers

Q: Will the Lawson Dyno-Vac fit through a standard door frame?
A: Yes. Even though the Dyno-Vac Vacuum Frame holds massive screen sizes, the entire frame structure disassembles easily to navigate narrow doorways, tight hallways, and standard darkroom entrances.

Q: What is the difference between the Pivoting Model and the Slant Model?
A: The Pivoting Model (#5070) tilts flat horizontally for comfortable waist-height film loading and screen setup, then pivots vertically for exposure. The Slant Model (#8096) features a fixed angled slant design for space-saving vertical loading and exposure.

Q: Does the Dyno-Vac include a light source, or is it a standalone frame?
A: The Dyno-Vac is a freestanding vacuum frame system. It is designed to be paired with overhead or point-light exposure sources such as the Olite Metal Halide Exposure Lamps.

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

Description

The Lawson Dyno-Vac Vacuum Frame is a commercial-grade, floor-standing exposure vacuum frame built for large-format screen printing shops, graphic printmakers, and high-volume textile operations. Designed for commercial screen rooms in St. Louis, MO, Atlanta, GA, and across North America, the Dyno-Vac makes exposing oversized screens fast and effortless. Driven by a powerful 1-horsepower instant-vac motor and a tear-resistant black rubber-flex blanket, it pulls an immediate, firm draw-down to guarantee complete film-to-emulsion contact without air pockets or light undercutting. Available in both Pivoting and Stationary Slant configurations across sizes up to 86" x 180", the Dyno-Vac easily disassembles to fit through narrow doorways and includes heavy-duty casters for smooth shop mobility.
