Automatic Tumbler Press

The MakerFlo Auto Tumbler Press is best suited for users who primarily work with standard tumblers and not irregularly shaped items. Odd shapes—such as shot glasses, 40oz tumblers, tapered cups, pens, and pencils—are better handled in a sublimation convection oven.

This machine is ideal if you're doing one-off items rather than wholesale. You can complete a single tumbler in about two minutes, and it saves a lot of space compared to a full-size oven. It’s great for both full and partial wraps.

One of the biggest advantages is its automatic pressure system. You don’t have to worry about manually taping or tightly securing your sublimation paper—just place the tumbler in the press and the machine applies even pressure every time. This makes it especially beginner-friendly for first-time tumbler makers.

The press also works with other sublimation items, including glass tumblers and ceramic mugs. For smaller mugs, you can even press two at once—one on each side.

How sublimation works

The coating we apply to our sublimation tumblers absorbs sublimation ink when pressed or baked onto the tumbler using heat. The sublimation process creates a vibrant, pristine and completely smooth design on the tumbler or surface, unlike a decal, which may leave ridges around the ink.
