Sefa e-Clam Pro 40cm x 50cm Heat Press

Data Sheet

The SEFA e-Clam Pro 40cm x 50cm Heat Press is a professional auto-open heat press designed for efficient, repeatable production across a wide range of heat transfer applications. Its full-size 40 x 50 cm (16" x 20") platen, sliding lower platen, and automatic opening system make it an excellent choice for apparel decorators handling small-to-medium production runs.

The electromagnetic auto-open system automatically releases the upper platen when the timed cycle is complete, helping reduce the risk of over-pressing while allowing the operator to prepare the next garment or transfer. A sliding lower platen provides easier access for loading and positioning, while the ability to load garments from either the front or rear of the platen helps streamline production.

Designed and manufactured in France, the e-Clam Pro features SEFA's advanced touchscreen control system with precise PID temperature regulation and adaptive control for different decorating processes. Fully editable recipes, programmable preheating, dual independent timers, production counters, and Eco Mode make it easy to configure the press for frequently used applications and maintain consistent results throughout production.

The e-Clam Pro is suitable for heat transfer vinyl, screen print transfers, textile sublimation, rigid substrate sublimation, laser transfers, and DTG-related applications. With quick-change platens and professional-grade controls, it offers the versatility needed for growing print shops, apparel decorators, sportswear businesses, and other production environments.
