Professional cap finishing - why a specialised cap press is crucial
The printing of caps is one of the most demanding tasks in transfer printing. The strong curvature and the often reinforced front panels of 6-panel caps make the use of a conventional flat press impossible. A cap press solves this problem with a perfectly matched, curved heating and base plate.
Your advantages when using Secabo cap presses:
- Crease-free results: The integrated clamping lever holds the cap firmly in place on the base plate. This smoothes the surface to be printed and prevents the transfer from slipping during the pressing process.
- Versatility for headwear: Whether classic baseball caps, snapbacks, trucker hats or even beanie hats - Secabo's cap presses can be used flexibly for different types of headwear.
- Precise temperature control: Precise heat is particularly important for synthetic fibres or structured fabrics. The digital controllers enable precise adjustment to avoid heat marks on the material.
Workflow tip:
For optimum results, we recommend using heat-resistant adhesive tape to fix the DTF transfer or flex film precisely before closing the press. Thanks to their compact design, our cap presses fit into any workshop and pay for themselves in no time due to the high demand for personalised headwear.
