Vacuum ironing tables

A professional ironing table is heated so the surface does not cool the garment, vacuumed so the garment is held flat and dried as it is pressed, and often blown so a garment that must not be flattened is supported on air. This page lists the tables Unicorp supplies from Reverberi, VEIT, Rotondi, Silter and Silver Star.

Ask us

One table or a row of them?

Tell us the garments, the number of pressing positions and whether steam is on site. That is enough to pick a table and the iron to go on it.

We reply within one business day.

Almost everything on a finishing floor happens on a table, and the table decides more of the result than the iron does. The vacuum holds the garment still and pulls the steam through so the fibres set as they cool; the heat stops the surface robbing the garment of it; blowing supports a shaped garment on a cushion of air so it is finished without being flattened.

The tables here

Reverberi's M300H-11 is the workshop and dry cleaner's table: a 1200 × 230 mm heated surface, foot-pedal vacuum, height adjustment and a heated, vacuumed sleeve board. Its M350HS-98 adds blowing. VEIT's Varioset CR2 S+B has independently adjustable suction and blowing, gas spring height adjustment and an optional egg-shaped buck for wider garment parts. Silter's Gazzella Squad and the Silver Star iron table are the entry points, and Rotondi's tables are catalogued as a range, from a single operator's shop to a manufacturing floor.

Around the table

The iron is on the industrial steam irons page and the covers, felts and pads a table consumes are under press covers and pads. A table cover is a consumable; keep a spare.

What this covers

What the functions do

Vacuum
Pulls steam and moisture down through the garment and the cover, so the fabric leaves dry and set rather than damp, and does not shine from repeated passes. On the Reverberi M300H it is on a foot pedal.
Heating
A thermostat-controlled surface that keeps the cloth from cooling the garment mid-press. Reverberi heats the sleeve board as well as the table.
Blowing
Air up through the surface to support a garment that must not be pressed flat. VEIT's Varioset CR2 S+B and Reverberi's M350HS have suction and blowing, independently adjustable.
Sleeve boards and sizes
Reverberi's M300H carries a shaped, heated sleeve form; Rotondi's tables run from a single operator's shop to a manufacturing floor, in several sizes.

Ranges

Catalogued as a range

Some makers are listed by machine family rather than model. Each range page covers the family and what to specify.

Rotondi vacuum ironing tables
The workhorse of a pressing floor. Heated surface, built-in vacuum to hold the garment flat, and a steam arm for on-demand steam.
Questions

Answers before you enquire

What makes a table professional rather than domestic?
Heat, vacuum and usually blowing. The table holds the garment down while it presses and pulls the moisture through, so the garment leaves dry rather than damp. A domestic board does none of that.
Do I need blowing?
For jackets, dresses and anything with shape that must not be flattened, yes. For shirts and trousers on a vacuum table, usually not. Tables with both, such as the VEIT Varioset CR2 S+B and the Reverberi M350HS, let the operator switch between them.
Which iron goes with it?
Any professional iron. A gravity-feed iron is the usual pairing in a dry cleaner because it needs no boiler; a boiler-fed or generator iron where steam is already on the bench. See industrial steam irons.
Is an ironing table the same thing as an industrial ironing board?
In the trade, yes. Ironing table, iron table, vacuum table and industrial ironing board all describe the same heated, vacuumed unit, and every model on this page answers to all four. A domestic ironing board is the one thing none of them are.
