Schulze base platen protective cover in polycotton, 16 sizes from Ø 10 to 70 × 100 cm, for DTF, sublimation and DTG.

Description

The Schulze base platen protective cover is a polyester and cotton textile cover fitted over the lower platen of the heat press. This platen protector keeps dirt off the surface during DTF, sublimation and DTG pressing. It comes in 16 sizes, from Ø 10 cm to 70 × 100 cm.

How does the Schulze cover protect the base platen?

Fitted over the base platen, the Schulze cover forms a layer between the platen and the garment. The platen stays clean for longer, and transfers keep a consistent quality from one press to the next.

Why use a cover for DTF transfers and sublimation?

In DTF transfer and sublimation, the garment rests on the lower platen at every press. The cover takes the marks instead of the platen, which cuts down on cleaning the heat press.

What happens to pretreatment liquid in DTG production?

In DTG production, part of the pretreatment liquid passes through the garment during pressing and settles on the lower platen. These residues soil the surface, can mark garments and make cleaning harder. The cover catches them in place of the platen.

What is the Schulze protective cover made of?

The Schulze protective cover combines a polyester and cotton blend base with a stretch cotton section. Its surface makes it easier to pull garments over the platen. For a cover that cleans easily and withstands heat better, the Heat Press Platen Cover - 40 cm x 50 cm is the PTFE alternative.

On which Schulze presses does the cover fit?

The Schulze protective cover sits on the lower platen of the heat press. Among pneumatic models, the Schulze Big Lite pneumatic heat press 70x100 cm takes the 70 × 100 cm size, as does the Schulze sublimation press 40x50 cm for the 40 × 50 cm size. The 38 × 45 cm size suits the platens of the Schulze Air Duo Press QR, the Schulze Air Power Automatic and, among electric models, the Schulze E-Power Duo Press 2.0.

Which size should be chosen for a heat press platen?

Each cover size matches a defined platen dimension, to be checked before ordering. The covers are intended for Schulze platens and may also suit other brands, depending on the dimensions. The Ø 10 cm size is reserved for the heated platen of the Mug Bottom Press. Other Schulze consumables are listed under heat press accessories.
