The Best Selling DTF Transfer Heat Press 16" x 20" from the HIX Corp

Step up your heat transfer game with the HIX S-650 Semi-Automatic Clamshell Heat Press, designed for pros who need consistent results without the physical strain. Based on the trusted HIX HT series, the S-650 brings a powerful upgrade: mechanical auto-open functionality — no air compressor needed.

Perfect for high-volume DTF transfers, sublimation printing, vinyl work, and other heat-applied graphics, the S-650 automatically lifts when the timer ends, helping prevent scorched garments and reducing operator fatigue. Ideal for longer pressing cycles, it’s a reliable solution for intricate designs on both textile and non-textile items.

Top Features of the HIX S-650 Heat Press

✅ Auto-Open Without Air Compressor

No pneumatics required! The S-650 uses an electronically triggered mechanical latch release and gas shock assist to automatically open after each press. This boosts efficiency, reduces repetitive strain, and improves safety — especially during longer transfer jobs.

✅ Even Heat Distribution with Floating Platen

Thanks to a precision-crafted aluminum alloy heating element, heat is evenly distributed across the entire 16" x 20" platen. The floating lower platen ensures uniform pressure, even on thicker materials or uneven surfaces.

✅ High-Performance Pressure Plate System

The press handle is attached to a 4" x 5" pressure plate, not just a single-point screw. This provides better edge-to-edge pressure, much like pressing down with your entire hand instead of a single finger — resulting in cleaner, more accurate transfers.

✅ Touchscreen LCD Control Panel

Take full control with the full-color LCD touchscreen. Set your time and temperature with ease, view real-time pressure readings each time the press closes, and save settings for frequently used transfer types with built-in user presets.

✅ Durable All-Metal Construction

Built to withstand heavy use in professional settings, the S-650 features a rugged all-metal body, large clamshell opening for easy garment placement, and spring-assisted operation for smooth, ergonomic handling.
