A degassing chamber for degassing a material located on a workpiece, comprises a vacuum source and a vacuum reservoir in fluid communication with the vacuum source, a secondary chamber, a port valve which is movable between an open position to allow passage of a workpiece therethrough between the exterior of the degassing chamber and the secondary chamber and a closed position in which the port valve is fluidly sealed, and a reservoir valve which is movable between an open position to provide fluid communication between the secondary chamber and the vacuum reservoir and a closed position in which the reservoir valve is fluidly sealed. The degassing chamber may be provided subsequent to a printing machine in a production line, and has particular application for degassing silicone material when producing fuel cells.

Different transfer material and printing methods may require different heating temperatures, pressing durations, and applied pressure to have a design imprinted optimally on a substrate using a platen system of a heat press. The heat press disclosed herein may allow for the adjustment of applied pressure by the platen system in addition to the adjustment of the heating temperature and pressing duration. A user may be able to select from a plurality of preset pressure configurations the desired amount of pressure that the heat press should apply to the objects between the platen system. The applied pressure may be constant pressure or pressure increasing with time. A user may select from different magnitudes of constant pressure or rates of increasing pressure. Additionally, the heat press may have a pressure distribution system for evening out an upper platen to the lower platen when they are pressed together.

This invention relates to the field of clothing production technology, specifically referring to printing process for clothing, which includes preparing finished clothing, preparing a cardboard, preparing printing paper, stretching the finished clothing, and transferring the pattern. In the process of producing the finished garments, mass production can be carried out. When stretching the finished garments, the cardboard is embedded into the finished garments to maximize the expansion and flattening of the finished garments, so that the entire front and back of the finished garments remain flat during the subsequent transfer printing process. It only needs to transfer the pattern to the pre-produced finished garments, which can greatly reduce the inventory of clothing for a single style. For individual entrepreneurs, internet celebrities, and authorized parties of intellectual properties, they can cover all patterns and IPs with lower inventory, thus reducing capital occupation, lowering financing costs, and operational risks.
