Used 2007 Progressive Falcon M 8/10 + full set of 16x20 and 4x20 pallets

Winston Salem
Up for sale:
Used 2007 progressive Falcon M 8/10
I purchased this brand new off the Charlotte NBM tradeshow floor in 2007 from TexSource.
It has served me very well for the last 14 years.
It has over 1m prints, It does not show the total prints because the computer battery has died twice and resets the number of total prints.
We upgraded in 2019 to 2 other autos and only used this press to print bandanas and sleeves before the computer died in it a few months ago.
Workhorse purchased progressive the year after I purchased this press, and they are still offering service and some parts for it. I have a few spare squeegee and floodbar pressure column sleeves, and proximity sensors for the print carriage.
It is very easy to operate, it is essentially a green M&R sportsman, but better because there are print head braces that anchor to the ground so you don't get the upward head deflection from the squeegee printing the shirt.
It has a brand new battery in the computer.
1 year old servo amplifier.
A full set of 16x20 standard pallets.
A full set of 4x20 sleeve pallets, (one of which is broken at the backside of the bracket) I used shims to level it out when needed.
A full set of 16 squeegees, winged and standard floodbars.
Never used spray adhesive on this press, only waterbased adhesive so there is to gummed up lint anywhere.
Completely disassembled and ready to have crated and shipped or picked up.
2 plug and go flashes that work perfectly, one with optic sensor(works) and footpedal(needs to be replaced).
Yellow Safety Rails included
There is one main issue with this press is the linear bearing that the indexer runs on needs to be replaced. I have a video of it running the day we got the computer back if anyone wants to see it running. It still indexes very well so the indexer is good, but it will need to get re-calibrated by a tech at set up, when the table lifts it hits the registration forks and it just causes the press to shake. The bad bearing causes the table to shake back and forth which in turn throws the registration bearings out of being lifted into the registration forks dead center.
I have had 3 techs out to install new equipment and they have all commented on how they have never seen a press that old look as good as this one does.
Asking $15,000
