The Tipping Point

When Manual Becomes the Bottleneck

Manual Press Pain Points

  • You Are the Machine

    Inconsistent pressure = inconsistent prints = reprints = lost margin. Output depends entirely on stamina.

  • 📦
    Can't Scale Large Orders

    Big runs mean all-weekend sessions. You're turning down profitable volume because the press can't keep up.

  • 💸
    Labor Eats Your Margins

    Multiple operators per shift. Your biggest variable cost grows with every job you take on.

  • 🎯
    Registration Is Never Perfect

    Multi-color misregistration causes reprints and complaints — a hidden cost that compounds over time.

ROQ Automation Changes the Math

  • 4–6× More Output Per Hour

    ROQ YOU: 900–1,050/hr. ROQ ECO: up to 1,300/hr. Same 2 operators, massively more product out the door.

  • 📈
    Say Yes to Bigger Orders

    Confidently quote 5,000–50,000 piece runs. High-volume becomes your most profitable work.

  • 🎯
    Perfect Registration Every Time

    ROQ's PRU puts every screen in the same position, every time. Setup drops from 45 min to minutes.

  • 🔒
    3-Year ROQ Solid Warranty

    Parts, shipping, labor, and tech travel all covered — zero surprise bills for 36 full months.

Pre-Press Registration

ROQ Registration System

Great prints start before the press moves. ROQ REG eliminates misregistration at the source — cutting setup time in half on every single job.

01
Align Film on Screen (PRU)

Place your film in the ROQ REG PRU before exposure. Integrated LED lights let you see through the emulsified mesh for precise film placement.

02
Expose with Confidence

With film positioned by the PRU, your exposed screen lands in the exact same spot on the press — precision is guaranteed before the first shirt prints.

03
Mount to Press — No Guesswork

ROQ REG Pre-Registration Platens provide positive registration blocks. Each screen seats identically, every time. No tedious head-to-head micro-adjustment needed.

04
Print from Shirt #1

Setup drops from 45+ minutes to minutes. Stop wasting shirts on registration — start production immediately with perfect multi-color registration from the first shirt.

⚡ ROQ REG cuts setup time in half — getting you back to printing faster on every job, with perfect multi-color registration from shirt #1.
