With a solid reputation for performance, durability, reliability and value, a Trans Tech Certified Pre-owned Machine is truly a great opportunity. Pricing ranges from 15% to 40% off the price of a new machine. Our certification process includes an exhaustive mechanical, electrical and cosmetic inspection of over 100 items to ensure that each machine meets the highest possible standards. Plus, all of our Certified Pre-owned Machines come with a 6 month warranty. With this in mind, it’s no wonder Trans Tech Pre-owned machines are in high demand. Make the smart choice, and purchase a Certified Trans Tech Machine that’s right for you.

Certification Standards

Why is Trans Tech’s Certified Pre-owned Machine Program the best in the business?
Our inspection process on each piece of pre-owned equipment assures the highest possible quality. Trans Tech trained technicians scrutinize all major components, including motors, air cylinders, cam followers, bearings and so on right down to the paint. In many cases the paint is stripped off the machine and everything is repainted using the original factory paint. We replace any component that does not meet our stringent standards with Genuine Trans Tech Parts, or restore it to “like-new” condition. Our technicians take pride in each step of our certification process so you’ll be completely satisfied with your Trans Tech Pre-owned Machine. As a final quality inspection, our print technicians use the machines for sample printing after the certification process to verify the machines are performing the same as a new machine.

Warranty

Every Trans Tech Certified Pre-owned Machine gives you peace of mind with our exclusive 6 month warranty covering any component failure or manufacturing defect for 6 months by a zero deductable part replacement policy.

Availability

For available models please contact us. If we don’t have the exact model you are looking for, ask to be put on our exclusive waiting list. When the model becomes available we will contact you by sending you a quotation.

Carousel 80 with SpaceFrame and ExpressLiner Ink Cup SystemYour Carousel 80 can now run SpaceFrames!

Are you running thick steel plates on your Trans Tech Carousel 80 pad printer? Are you looking to speed up your ink cup cleaning process so you can run longer and produce more parts each shift? Are you stuck trying to clean around those pesky magnets inside the ink cup?

Trans Tech is now offering our standard 60mm Redstar SpaceFrame and ExpressLiner as an option to run in a standard Carousel 80. The only modification is replacing the cup clamp release levers with shoulder screws. These simply unscrew from the arm clamping mechanism! The cup driver arm must also be of the same vintage as shown in the photo.

The 60mm SpaceFrame is only 10mm smaller than the stock ink cup, so it should fit most of your printing needs. Please check to make sure it is big enough to print your images before ordering.

Our list price on the magnetic SpaceFrame with steel blade is $427.00, which is $1708.00 to get back into 4 color high quality production. Through June 30 we are offering a set of four SpaceFrames for $1150.00 or five for $1437.50, which is 32% off list price! We will include 1 free sleeve of ExpressLiners and the cup clamp shoulder screws with the purchase of 4 or 5 SpaceFrames.

You’ll be satisfied you made the switch to our patent pending SpaceFrame and ExpressLiner technology! Contact our Parts department at 630-909-5764 and talk to Chris Williamson or 630-909-5767 and talk to Rich Schulz for any further questions.
