The Aero Series is absolutely the best value for the price, against any competitor. You're looking at over 25 years of design evolution for the most famous printers in our industry's history. Designed by Riley Hopkins, (of Hopkins International fame), these new presses are the ultimate high quality, small format 23" screen capacity printers. Of course the advantage to the 8 color press is the ability to have more versatility on dark colored shirts. Not only does the Aero 8 color 4 Station press give you this advantage but many others as well.

If you’re looking for a heavy duty screen printing press the Aero is what you are looking for. Built by hand, the base is made from sturdy heavy duty steel welded in a wide square format so minimal give and maximum stability is retained. The printing heads are machined from T9 Aircraft Grade Heat Treated Aluminum. Warning! Don’t try to push this press around, it will hurt you. It’s great for shops with many different employees, you simply don’t have to worry about them banging up your press, it’s built like a tank but still has the body and maneuverability of a BMW! It’s simply, very accurate, and very strong, and built to withstand extreme abuse in the shop all day. Featuring a wall-to-wall 2" center shaft, and monstrous low-drag bearings, the new Aero Series of printers are very easy to spin for long periods of production.

These presses are actually TOOL FREE (as opposed to one competitor who's claimed this feature for seven years, while actually requiring wrenches to adjust their screen clamps!) For those unfamiliar with the term “Tool Free” This means there no wrenches, not bolts, and no messing around involved to do to make adjustments between jobs. Most importantly to you, rather than the print heads being left "loose" to flop around from thread play, bolt clearance and screen leverage, Aero Series presses have a LOCK UP feature, which locks and eliminates any movement. This is a very important difference between your long term ability to produce quality, saleable work, and a "great sales job" that won't hold registration a year down the road.

These presses feature our exciting new "Joy Stick Registration System" that has been yanking the drawers off our competitors' old micros! Joy Sticks are absolutely the way to go. As soon as you register your first job with them, you'll wonder why you ever put up with micros! 16x16 shirt boards are standard. (These shirt boards and brackets fit older Hopkins presses too!) Ultra Wide Base Extended Gates Wider and longer IS better!

If you've used micro's or are not a fan of the "Joystick Registration" then have no fear, standard Mirco Registration can also be added to this press for only $50 more per head (or color). About 90% of our customers buy the Riley Hopkins press with the Joystick Registration but the standard micro registration is available for those looking for it.
