Default auto pre-treat machines

Besides the outrageously expensive USSPIT auto pretreat machine ($8k). Has anyone seen our heard about any other auto pre-treat machines on the market or coming soon. I use a high end HVLP sprayer for pretreatment and have consistent results with my t-jet. But it would be nice if there was an auto spray machine, at a good price.

Well, theoretically, Belquette is about to release their pretreatment machine. It's expected to be on SGIA show.

No, All American has their own import version.

The BPTS (BelQuette Pre-Treatment-Station) is manufactured here, and will be sold and supported directly from Belquette. We feel this is the best way to keep the price in line and still maintain a quality support infrastructure.

Once SGIA is over we will video the system, we are confident you will like what you see. We feel it's an effective solution to somewhat of a black art.

Some new and exciting products are just around the corner.

Mark, could the BPTS be used for other DTG's considering all the white ink is the same?

YUM!!

Has the Belquette PT the ability to push the pretreatment into the garment? Or is it sprayed over?

Our first approach was to use well known roll coating technologies but the machines cost was getting out of control, so we opted to go with the spray technique as it does work well if correctly controlled.

Here are a couple of highlights.

100% sealed unit that could be operated in your living room.
Very flexible with programmable PT with H20 with wiping.
Easy to load/unload.
High work-flow design.
Production quality.

Now please be pateint........the shows not far off.

Thanks for interest.
