I have an A2 pressmech, a nice bit of kit. Alas not used these days as my wide format printer died and I wasn't that fussed about replacing it.
Janners.
What's the max press size on that Janners?

Max size to press is A2 and a smidge. That all important smidge. The heat plate is approx 61cm by 46cm.

It doesn't need 3 phase, they were designed to run off a standard socket. I hadn't thought about selling mine, but I'll have a think about it.

Depending on if you're just talking about the economy of upfront costs, or the total in terms of man hours and electric costs .... If you're printing fabrics, then a rotary press is a more efficient in terms of a constant workflow, and more efficient in electric use too - heating one long thin area, rather than a big rectangular area.

We have one of these 44" ones, and a bigger 64" one
They are Korean built, and branded by a German company. RA Smart are the dealers for UK on them.
Our 64" is USA branded, but still the same as the German ones, RA Smart have been good for parts.
We've also found a really good local company for servicing/repairs on them.
This is an odd one https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Industria...97.m4902.l9144
There is nowhere to load rolls of fabric, or rolls of printed transfers, so although full size, can only be used for piece work and not roll to roll
Also, no guard on the front, so the heated drum is very exposed - H&S nightmare, I would def advise getting a cover made for it!
