A Four Station Four Color M&R Chameleon Press
http://www.mrprint.com/en/ProductOverview.aspx?id=14
With its revolutionary two-tier design, unrivaled expandability, and rugged construction, Chameleon is without question the worlds best sampling and manual production press. M&Rs System Integration design allows Chameleon to integrate seamlessly with M&Rs Tri-Loc and Double Tri-Loc Registration System and any M&R automatic textile press to create the most phenomenal registration/sampling/production system available. And with Chameleons patented Duo-Deck™ design, four and six-color models can expand to ten colors and eight-color models can expand to fourteen colors, all without expanding the footprint of the press.
Chameleons expandability also allows manual shops to meet current color capacity needs with a Chameleon 4, 6, or 8-color press, secure in the knowledge that they can add future color capacity by expanding the Chameleon instead of purchasing a new press. Instead of investing in small, manual-only screen frames that can never be used on automatic presses, Chameleon owners can invest in standard frames designed for automatics. When Chameleon-driven shops step up to automatic printing, theyre not sitting on thousands of dollars worth of frames that have to be replaced. Chameleon even uses the same standard pallets as M&R automatics. Interchangeable frames support increased productivity through manual-press sampling, leaving automatic presses free to perform their specialty: high-speed production.

Turnabout ensures evenly blended inks by rotating the container with a lifting and rolling action, reaching ink that typically settles on the sides and bottoms of containers. The mixer is self-centering and quickly adjusts to 4 to 20 liter (1 to 5 gallon) containers. Turnabout models include AC electric fixed-speed and DC electric variable-speed. Turnabout H.D., driven by an AC electric variable-speed motor with constant torque, is specifically designed for use with thicker, more viscous inks and coatings, such as high-density plastisol. AC Standard and DC models rotate clockwise or counterclockwise.
