Space Saving Screen Printing Machine Combo

Starting a small business or adding silk screen printing to an existing embroidery, ad specialty and promotional products shop brings about the same challenge: limited space and oversized machines.
Most are usually able to find a corner of their store front shop, home garage, spare room or studio for a 4 or 6 color press and a flash dryer, but when it comes to curing t-shirts, there doesn’t seem to be any room to add a conveyor dryer. The Cruiser is the space saving solution for you.
With a conveyor dryer that fits under, and well within the 8’ diameter footprint of a 4 or 6 color press, this combo allows you to take your little corner and turn it into a full production area.

As your business grows you may add a second t-shirt printing press and large conveyor dryer to the mix and you’ll still be able to take advantage of the cruiser as a sample or small run production center.
There are other all in one printer/dryer combos in the market which combine a silk screening press and a conveyor dryer, but will often have you sacrifice in price or quality.
On the one end, many products claim to be affordable, but will include low quality, bench-top, t-shirt printing press mounted on a dryer. They leave out important features such as rotary platens or traditional registration systems with roller bearings and steel key. Instead, they use less than ideal micro-registration systems that leave you frustraed setting up jobs. Beware of nylon bolts that wear down and require adjustment in the middle of a job. Rest assured using a bearing and key system that your multi colored designs stay registered from start to finish
Standard with Ranar’s vista series screen printing presses; traditional precise micro registrations make your screen-printing experience fun and full of joy; stick with micro adjusters that you know work best, and don’t settle for lesser systems or hidden costs of “only” $50 more per head (or color).
On the other end, some equipment manufacturers will offer you a high quality manual printing press and a econo conveyor dryer, but will charge you the cost of one of our complete shop packages for just one piece of equipment.
We give you the best of both worlds: high quality screen printing equipment at an affordable price. Every piece of equipment is made in the USA.
