What are the typical life cycles of the heat transfer press heating elements and how difficult are they to replace?
The electric heating elements are not very hard to change. The side of the heat transfer drum opens up and the element cage assembly slides out. Generally speaking it would take about 3 – 5 hours or so to pull out the element cage and replace the elements. How long the elements last depends on how often the machine is used. Generally speaking we expect elements to last about 3 to 5 years with normal use of 8 hours a day 5 days a week. Elements (complete set or individual pieces) can be purchased from us.
