AIT/Astex Fusing Machines

AIT/Astex Model 2000SC
Fusing Machinery

The Astex 2000 Series is available in 8", 16" and 24" belt widths. The open side design allows large parts with partial interlinings to pass easily through the machine. A large lay-up table, top and bottom heat and adjustable silicone pressure rollers make this model especially adaptable to folders and roll-to-roll applications such as waistbands, belt loops, etc.

AIT/Astex Model 5363
Fusing Machinery

With a 63" belt, the Astex 5363SC is an upgraded and lower cost version of the Astex 5200SC Series. The system is capable of roll-to-roll fusing and has 4-zone heat control and 62" long heat chamber. The advanced heating system assures a soft flexible fused assembly, maintaining fabric structure and avoiding shrinkage or fading, while it provides absolute control of the adhesive resins on any type of interlining selected.

AIT/Astex Model 3024SC
Fabric Fusing Press

The AIT/Astex 3000 fills the void between low production, platen presses and the large and expensive high pressure conveyorized. Top and bottom heat, precise speed control, and air operated high pressure system.

AIT/Astex Model 5200SC
Fusing Machinery

Designed specifically for high production speeds and low temperature fusing of sportswear. The combination of top and bottom conductive heat application with precise speed and pressure control, assures quality results on all fused assemblies.

AIT/Astex Model 9000SC
Fusing Machine

A dual-use fusing and laminating system that is in a class of its own. The ultimate in the control of time, temperature, and pressure is achieved through the longest contact heat chamber available. Also includes Seven zone temperature control and tandem pressure rollers.

AIT/Astex Model 6800SC
Fusing/Laminating Machines

A wide width, heavy duty fusing machine with 50% greater heat capacity and longer heater chamber than competitively priced machines. Longer heated length and 6 zone heat control permits high production speeds with absolute fusing security.

AIT/Astex Model 4500
Fusing Press

Meets high-pressure dress shirt fusible specifications with high production capacities. Large reservoir heated channels for rapid glue line penetration without damaging delicate fabrics. Loading station design features easy access, built-in shelves for shell cloth and fusible storage. Return-to-operator option returns fused assemblies to the front of the machine, enabling the system to work with a single operator.

AIT/Astex Model 162/354
Fusing Machine / Heat Transfer

A general purpose platen press, standard with top heat, is ideal for fusing and film laminating. A preset timer automatically releases platen when dwell time expires. Adjustable time, temperature and pressure controls.

AIT/Astex Model 202T
Fusing Machine

The largest and most versatile of our platen presses for shirts, the 26" X 36" platen accommodates full fronts. Collars, cuffs and fronts are fed to the machine on the twin-tray system. Collar/cuff production is typically 180 doz/day top ply fusing. This can be greatly increased by spot welding assemblies.

AIT/Astex Model 4103hp
Fusing Machine

Exclusively for dress shirt placket fusing. Bundle clamp holds unfused fronts. One placket at a time is fused and then disposed on the other side of the clamp. 1,200 parts/day is typical at a 12-15 sec. dwell time. Tandem machines increase production approximately 50% with only one operator.

AIT/Astex Model 243
Fusing Press

The Pocket Flap Press #243 remains a standard for suit manufacturers because of its ability to perfectly press and fuse flaps consistently.

Timed steam and vacuum press two flaps simultaneously after expanding dies have retracted, eliminating any possibility of shine.
