The GOLDORO Heat Press Machine, model HPC480-3, is a device designed for transferring images onto various items using a combination of temperature, pressure, and time. The transfer process permanently embeds the image into the product.
Function Description:
The primary function of the GOLDORO Heat Press Machine is to apply heat and pressure to transfer images from transfer paper onto target items. This process is commonly used for customizing apparel, such as T-shirts, and other compatible materials. The machine allows users to set specific temperature and time parameters to achieve optimal transfer results for different materials.

Usage Features:
The GOLDORO Heat Press Machine offers a user-friendly interface for setting temperature and time.
Setting Temperature:
- Turn on the machine using the power switch.
- Press the "OK" button. The digital controller will display "P-1".
- Use the arrow buttons ("▲" or "▼") to adjust the desired temperature in Fahrenheit.
- Press the "OK" button to confirm the temperature setting.
Setting Time:
- After setting the temperature, the display screen will show "P-2".
- Use the arrow buttons ("▲" or "▼") to adjust the desired time in seconds.
- Press the "OK" button to confirm the time setting.
Printing Methods:
- Ensure the power plug is securely connected to a wall socket, then turn on the power switch.
- Set the desired temperature and time using the digital controller.
- Once the set temperature is reached, the buzzer will sound. Place the object (e.g., T-shirt) on the press bed with the transfer paper (images facing down) on top. Rotate the pressure knob to achieve the required pressure.
- Press down the handle to initiate the transfer. The buzzer sound will stop.
- When the scheduled time is up, the buzzer will sound again. Lift up the handle (the sound will stop), and the transfer work is complete.
Recommended Settings for Objects:
- Clothing Transfer (e.g., T-shirt transfer):
- Set Temperature: 180-200°C (356-392°F)
- Set Time:
- Chemical fiber use / Fabric clothing use with sublimation paper: 35-45 seconds
- 100% pure cotton clothing use with transfer paper: 20-25 seconds
Maintenance Features:
- Temperature and Time Adjustment: Different items require different temperature and time settings based on their material and thickness.
- Safety: The machine is not suitable for children or food processing.
- Power Management: Always turn off the machine and unplug the power cord when not in use.
- Automatic Cooling: The heat plate will automatically cool down to room temperature if the machine is left unused for more than 30 minutes.
- Heat-Releasing Fan: A heat-releasing fan automatically activates when the heat plate temperature reaches 80°C (176°F). This feature helps reduce the temperature of electrical parts and prolong their service life.
- Maximum Setting Temperature: For better maintenance, the maximum setting temperature is 210°C (410°F).
- Double-Sided T-Shirts: When printing double-sided T-shirts, insert a sheet of cardboard between the shirt, adjust the height to less pressure, then press to avoid re-heating the first transfer.
- Heat Plate Movement: Slight rotational movement of the heat plate back and forth is normal and due to movement allowance within the clamp assembly.
Troubleshooting:
- No action after turning on: Check plug connection, fuse, power switch, or digital controller for damage.
- Indicating light on, display black: Check the 5 cables of the railway transformer for looseness or fault.
- Display working, no heating: Check if the solid-state relay indicating light is on. If not, check the relay or digital controller. If the relay is changed but still no heating, check the heat plate or its power cable.
- Temperature out of control (e.g., set 180°C, actual >200°C): The solid-state relay is likely broken and needs replacement. Alternatively, the digital controller might be faulty and continuously supplying power to the relay, requiring controller replacement.
- Pale or faded print color: Pressure is too low, temperature is too low, or pressing time is too short. Adjust pressure/temperature or increase heating time.
- Darkened, deep, or blurred print color: Temperature is too high or pressing time is too long. Adjust temperature or reduce heating time.
- Different/partial transfer effect: Pressing time is too short or poor-quality transfer paper is used. Increase heating time or use high-quality transfer paper.
- Transfer paper sticks to object: Temperature is too high or poor-quality printing ink is used. Adjust temperature or use high-quality transfer paper.
