The Hotronix® Fusion IQ™ was selected the 2018 SGIA Product of the Year in the Heat Press (Table-Top) category. The Fusion IQ was one of 255 entries in this year’s edition of the annual competition, which showcases innovations in 68 product areas.
Designed to streamline operation, maintenance and production, the Fusion IQ includes an array of features for easier setup, use, tracking, trouble-shooting and management. An updated controller with a larger, sharper LCD screen provides enhanced user-interface. And upgraded touch-screen technology allows time, temperature and pressure to be set more easily and recipes modified and saved for faster setups. The IQ further offers real-time digital readouts and unlimited preset programs.
Other Fusion IQ highlights include advanced self-diagnostics, pop-out controller replacement and onboard SD data card/cloud backup. There also is online access to reporting for more effective production management. Moreover, the IQ has a patented dual function and can operate as a swing or draw press for a heat-free workspace.
With production features like threadability, a production cycle counter and an energy-saving four-hour sleep mode and the ability to provide a window into the performance of your business assets, it’s easy to see why the IQ was ranked #1 in its class for innovation.
