Screen Printing Imaging Systems
Product Code: S-868, TCA4 and TCA3
Our screen imaging systems use RISO ScreenMaster Thermal Screen Mesh to create professional quality screen printing screens for t-shirts, fabrics, wood, paper and other applications.
Starting with the low cost entry level NEHOC Screen Printing Kit, as your screen volume grow you can progress up into the Thermal-Copier range which eliminate the Print Lamps of the S-868 kit - lowering your overall imaging costs.

Discontinued Models
VistaFax Thermal-Copier
 |
Discontinued in December 2004 when the manufacturing company Memofax closed.
VistaFax was available in 1UF (pictured) and 2UF format.
Commonly purchased and re branded under different names such as MemoFax, GBC FordiFax, Fordifax, Memo copy fax, Memo thermo fax and FordiFax - all were commonly 1UF models.
Similar operation to the new A4 Thermal-Copier model, however VistaFax machines use a drive cone and many mechanical parts to operation, causing greater repairs when parts break or wear.
|
3M Thermo Fax
 |
Discontinued in the early 1990's, some 2nd hand models remain available with reconditioned belts and motors.
Most models were labeled 3M, however re branding was common and machines were also called GBC ThermoFax, 3M Thermal Copier, ThermaFax and 3M FordiFax.
Using a belt driven operation to draw the copy into the machine, rollers and belts required common replacement following a jam. Support for these models is no longer available due to the lack of spare parts.
