The Little Red X1-30 is equipped with a 30 x 48-in. conveyor belt and a single IR heater of 120 or 240 V. It cures up to 130 plastisol-printed or 45 discharge-printed garments/hr.
The Little Red X2-30 features dual 240-V heaters and a 30 x 84-in. belt, with cure speeds up to 260 plastisol-printed or 90 discharge-printed garments/hr.
The X2 also includes a powered exhaust system that cools the outer cabinet while evacuating moisture and fumes; this feature is optional on the X1. Additional features include a low-friction roller belt aligner; an IR focusing system for belt-to-heater height adjustment ranging from 2 to 7 in.; and angle control.
Other options for both models include additional heating chambers, conveyor belt extensions, heavy-duty conveyor belt motors, and locking casters.
