Koozie Printer Specifications
Built on the proven PT-8 turret platform and delivered as a complete koozie line — printer, unloader, and servo-indexing dryer, from one factory.
| Specification | Detail |
|---|---|
| Base machine | Model PT-8 precision printer — 15″ (380 mm) stroke, eight-station rotary turret with variable servo indexer speed |
| Squeegee / flood bar | 4″ (100 mm) squeegee holder · 5″ (125 mm) flood bar |
| Mandrels | Set of eight for collapsible can coolers · adjustable drag on every mandrel |
| Auto-run mode (option) | Toggle between foot-pedal and automatic cycling from a small panel at the load station — dwell time set on a digital timer in tenths of a second |
| Unloader sensing (option) | Optical sensor stops the printer if a can cooler fails to unload after the dryer — no silent jams |
| Continuous-clean flood bar (option) | Removable flood bar assembly with quick-change brackets — swap in a spare and keep printing while the other is cleaned |
| Fine registration (option) | Screen stops doubling as Y-direction micro-adjust on front and rear screen frame holders |
| Typical delivery | 10–12 weeks for the complete printer + dryer line |
A Line That Doesn't Stop for Housekeeping
- Swap, don't stop — the removable flood bar assembly means cleaning happens off the machine while a spare keeps the run going.
- Set the pace once — in automatic mode the dwell timer holds your cycle rhythm to the tenth of a second; drop back to foot-pedal for setup and short runs.
- Nothing jams silently — part-present detect skips the print stroke on an empty station, and the unloader sensor halts the line if a koozie hangs up after the dryer.
- Same turret, more products — the PT-8 platform underneath also runs tapered cups; see promotional printing applications for the rest of the lineup.
