Purpose

The M&R Sportsman Series 10 Colour is a high-performance automatic screen printing press designed for high-volume garment decoration, promotional textile printing, and precise multi-colour apparel branding. Renowned across the print industry for its exceptional registration accuracy, rapid indexing speeds, and uniform ink deposit, this press enables Zell-em to produce large runs of custom t-shirts, hoodies, and workwear with flawless colour consistency. Its heavy-duty construction and smooth pneumatic head operation ensure every garment achieves vibrant tones and razor-sharp line detail.


History

Engineered in North America by M&R Companies—the industry standard in textile screen printing equipment—the Sportsman series revolutionized automated screen printing when first introduced. Built on decades of manufacturing innovation, the 10-colour configuration represents the sweet spot between versatility and high throughput. Zell-em integrated the Sportsman Series to expand capacity for complex multi-colour artwork while drastically reducing turnaround times for high-volume commercial print clients.
