M&R Diamondback Automatic Press


If you're a shop looking to expand, M&R auto's are the way to go and the Diamondback is the most affordable well built production oriented auto on the market. Imagine printing up to 45 dozen shirts per hours (that's 540!) while running with only 1-2 people in your shop! The Diamondback has expansion and possibility written ALL over it!

We begin buying screen printing supplies from a couple of suppliers around the country, but became dissatisfied with the prices, quality and service from those companies. Once we started looking for an automatic press, we found Ryonet and were really impressed with the service we received from the staff along with the prices of their supplies. The auto upgrade went smoothly and Ryonet was there to help us every step of the way. We now buy all of our supplies from Ryonet, not only because of the great prices, but the care and service they provide us is exceptional. We would highly recommend Ryonet to anyone and look forward to many future years doing business with them.

Most owners of manual-press operations are constantly looking for ways to justify upgrading to an automatic press because of the tremendous benefits automation offers. Entry-level automatics can dramatically increase output, giving shops the ability to take on large and last-minute jobs. They also minimize labor costs and they largely eliminate the tedium and hard physical effort involved in hand-pulling squeegees. In shops where the owner does much of the printing, an automatic's high-speed production can free up time to work with existing clients - and seek out new ones.
Unfortunately, those benefits often lost out to the cost factor - until now. By relying on simplicity of design, strong standard-feature sets, highly-efficient manufacturing processes, and volume production, M&R's Diamondback has broken the price barrier between you and your first automatic. The pneumatically-driven Diamondback is available in 6 and 8-color models, with a maximum image area of 41 x 46 cm (16" x 18") and a maximum pallet size of 46 x 56 cm (18" x 22"). Diamondbacks can be ordered with an additional print head over the unload station, turning the 6-color into a 7-color and the 8-color into a 9-color. The press can also be optionally configured to allow the additional print head to be added in the field.

Diamondbacks are available in base and enhanced configurations. Both models feature pneumatically-driven print carriages, swiveling control panel arm with touch-screen display, micro-registration, calibrated squeegee pressure adjustment, standard M&R three-point pallet leveling bracket with quick release, rear stroke length adjustment, new composite 41 x 56 cm (16" x 22") pallets, and M&R's patented Revolver Print Program. Enhanced Diamondbacks add pneumatic frame locks, pneumatic squeegee/flood bar locks, and pneumatic squeegee pressure regulators. We strongly recommend purchasing the "B" packaged presses w/ ALL Pneumatic Options. Pneumatics increase setup time efficiency by four of five times. It's literally the difference of hand tightening down knobs for 15-20 minutes OR flipping a switch and the job is done! In fact, over 99% of ALL M&R diamond backs sold are purchased with "B" Package Pneumatic Options!

Think Ahead: If you are looking at an M&R Diamond Back 6 Color or 8 Color Press would you ever want to expand? M&R makes it easy to add a 7th or 9th color to either of these presses as long as the wiring is put in place at the factory when the press is manufactured. For ONLY $674.65 you can pre-wire your press for an additional print head which will allow you to add another color when the time comes. We strongly recommend pre-wiring your press so you're not out of luck if your business calls for an additional color or flashing station.
