Multi-Function Single-Cylinder Sambrani Cup & Specialty Incense Press (Model: HAT 20)
Maximize your workshop’s product range with the HATRI HAT 20 Multi-Function Single-Cylinder Press. Engineered as a high-versatility, cost-effective hydraulic solution, the HAT 20 is designed for manufacturers who want to diversify beyond standard incense sticks into premium, high-margin molded products.
Equipped with a 15-inch die plate and a reliable 2 HP motor, this machine presses 6 finished pieces per stroke. With interchangeable custom tooling, a single HAT 20 unit can produce:
-
Sambrani & Havan Cups: Deep, durable cups with uniform wall thickness that resist cracking during resin filling.
-
Incense Gold Bars (Ingots): Traditional ceremonial and feng-shui gold bar shapes with clean edges and crisp branding impressions.
-
Embossed Dragon Sticks: By inserting a thick, coated incense stick into the mold, the hydraulic downstroke compresses and stamps intricate 3D dragon patterns directly onto the surface.
-
Hollow Backflow Incense Cones: Precision-pinned dies press dense dhoop cones with centered bottom vent holes for smooth smoke cascades.

Key Operational Benefits
-
4-in-1 Production Flexibility: Instead of buying separate presses for cups, cones, and embossed sticks, the HAT 20 allows you to switch between sambrani cups, backflow cones, incense gold bars, and 3D dragon sticks using modular 15″ die plates.
-
Intricate Dragon Stick Embossing: Produce luxury ceremonial dragon sticks effortlessly. Operators place a pre-coated jumbo stick into the mold cavity; the hydraulic downstroke stamps sharp, defined scales and dragon contours along the stick without crushing the bamboo core.
-
Flawless Backflow Cone Pinning: Mold plates fitted with bottom center-pins produce dense, crack-free backflow cones with aligned smoke-release tunnels, guaranteeing steady downward smoke cascades.
-
High-Density Hydraulic Compaction: Concentrated single-cylinder downward force removes internal air pockets across all 6 cavities, delivering structural strength that holds up during drying, packing, and transit.
-
Accessible Single-Phase or 3-Phase Setup: Operates on either 220V single-phase or 380V industrial power, making it accessible for cottage businesses, craft workshops, and large factory lines alike.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How do you make dragon sticks on the HAT 20?
Prepare a jumbo incense stick with thick, semi-moist paste, position it inside the 15-inch dragon mold cavity, and cycle the press. The hydraulic cylinder presses the dough firmly against the contoured die, forming detailed 3D scales and patterns before demolding.
Can this machine make backflow cones with the center hole included?
Yes. The cone die set includes precision base pins. When the powder is compressed, the pins form the internal air chamber and bottom vent hole automatically, eliminating the need to drill holes manually after pressing.
How long does it take to switch between cups, cones, and dragon stick molds?
The 15-inch die plate uses standard mechanical mounting bolts. Swapping tooling between sambrani cups, gold bars, dragon sticks, or backflow cones takes approximately 15 to 25 minutes using basic hand tools.
What is the typical daily output for one operator?
Depending on the product type and operator pace, a complete cycle (loading, pressing, and demolding) takes 15 to 25 seconds, yielding approximately 700 to 1,200 finished pieces per hour.
