We've had a Thunder for over 2 years. My husband (our printer) has a background in engineering. He looked at all the brands (I've been in business since 2005 and going to ISS shows since 1997). We were ready to get a new 6/6 press from our old used press we'd had for several years. He looked at all the manual 6/6 offerings for our business and it came down to Vastex and Anatol. Anatol won out on the registration gate setup. Although he loved the detents in the Vastex. We moved into an auto 2 years ago and keep the Thunder as backup now. It's a wonderful press.

Do you think the pre-registration is even necessary on this press at all based on set-up time on average jobs?
@ThePrintLife5 жыл бұрын
There are many shops that use them with great success. I simply cant figure it out. We have tried both ways and reverted back to using micros and registering to a template taped to the pallet. From what I cant tell for pre reg to work you need to have fairly high and consistent newtons accross all the screens. I find this very difficult to achieve in my shops enviroment. When I eventually move to roller frames I may revisit pre registration systems.

I'm ready to pull the trigger and buy one but the lack of any customer service may push me towards a different press which sucks because everyone knows they make the best manual presses. I need to know I have support from them though. Right out of the gates they dont seem to give a shit. I dont want to buy indirectly from another supplier. Im in southern Washington State and Ryonet is the big supplier here, right up the street from me. They only carry Riley Hopkins though. I may have to go that route instead because I know they will always be available in terms of customer service and have my back.

@sixstanger004 жыл бұрын
Several possibilities: 1) The shirt/platen has got too hot from repeatedly being under the flash. What happens is that after flashing, the platen is so hot that the print can't cool down. When you lay your second screen down, the thin layer of ink in the screen "cures" to the shirt, causing the mesh to stick to the shirt. To avoid this, never print right after a flash, and always make sure the print isn't too hot to touch. 2) Your off-contact is too low. The screen mesh is "resting" on the shirt and when you print, the ink is pooling back up through the mesh because it's still in contact with the garment. Off-contact should always be about 1/8" 3) No or insufficient adhesive spray on the platen. Your ink supplier well sell cans of it, or you can pick up a can of 3M all-purpose adhesive spray from a local hardware store.

Anatol have offices in Poland that ship to pretty much every country in Europe as far as I'm aware. Just go to their website and go to the 'Were To Buy' page :)

The Print Life rad. Miss your videos. Been busy or just burnt out on the whole vlogging mess?

@@hotboxprintstudio Mainly got burnt on editing. I was looking back over the channel and I connot belive how many cuts I have made. It's good to take a step back and objectively look at the channel and decide what kind of content I want to make moving forward.

My moms bf scammed me out of 4000 because he told me he had a friend that could get me a legit press with all the things i was going to need turned out to be completely bullshit. I ended up moving out of my moms because she didn't seem to care definitely killed my dreams for a couple of years because i was just struggling on my own trying to survive but I'm finally trying to get back to my normal self just feels like im back at square one but at least i learned valuable lessons about people n life in general dont be like me do your research dont just trust blindly

M&r is way better than anatol you can fool the beginner printers, anyway I like your videos but I don agreed with you.

Mario Herrera Your right. M&R is the only good manufacturer out there. All other press manufacturers are worthless scrap metal. Thanks for the valuable education. M&R for life, am I right?

What I didn’t like about the M&R Kruzer is it does not have a tilt adjustment. Having the tilt adjustment together with the off contact makes setup quicker. Its also kinda heavy. The weight doesn’t bother me but it might make a difference with large orders. Sometimes the workers fatigue kicks in.

Most good presses are expensive. If you just starting go for a single color single station from Ebay, get some clients then making this purchase wint seem so bad.

Proverbial is not the right word. LOL. But 99% of the time that word is used anywhere it is used incorrectly. There has to be a proverb associated with it
