Abstract
A heat press may include an upper assembly comprising a heat plate, a lower assembly comprising a platen, and a base assembly interconnecting the upper assembly and the lower assembly. The base assembly may include a drive motor that is configured to drive movement of the upper assembly relative to the lower assembly. The heat press is generally configured to heat and compress, between the heat plate and the platen, a workpiece. A method for a heat press may also include a processor perform various operations, including activating a drive motor to drive an upper assembly of a heat press toward a lower assembly of the heat press to exert a compressive force on a workpiece disposed between a heat plate of the upper assembly and a platen of the lower assembly.
