Geo Knight DK16 14×16 Clamshell Heat Press – Digital High Pressure Heat Transfer Machine
GeoKnight
Geo Knight Digital Knight DK16 14″ x 16″ Clamshell Heat Press is a professional-grade, mid-sized heat press designed for serious apparel decorators who need commercial performance in a compact footprint. Ideal for heat transfer vinyl (HTV), DTF transfers, plastisol transfers, and sublimation printing, the DK16 delivers high pressure, consistent temperature, and long-term durability at an affordable price point.
The 14″ x 16″ platen size is perfect for standard t-shirt prints, youth garments, left chest logos, tote bags, and smaller transfer applications. Unlike many clamshell presses, the DK16 opens wide and lifts the heat platen up and away from the lower table, providing improved loading access and safer garment positioning. The All-Thread™ table loading design allows operators to slide shirts smoothly over the lower platen, ensuring full drape space around and beneath the loading area to reduce marks.
Weighing only 83 lbs, the DK16 is highly portable and ideal for shops with limited space, home-based businesses, and mobile printing operations. Despite its lightweight build, it delivers impressive high-pressure capability suitable for thicker garments, DTF film transfers, and specialty applications. Its solid steel framework and Geo Knight’s patented SuperCoil-Microwinding™ heater technology ensure even heat distribution, fast recovery, and reliable production performance.
