The MicroTec APEX M15 is a 15-station robotic mug heat press built for high-volume print-on-demand production. It handles feeding, positioning, heating, pressing, transfer movement and cooling of 11 oz mugs with minimal operator involvement.
Robotic gripping claws on a high-precision guide rail move each mug smoothly through the line, and batch modes of 5, 10 or 15 mugs per cycle let you run small custom jobs or large orders on the same machine.
