Correct operation flow of manual screen printing

The correct operation flow of manual screen printing is as follows:

There are usually two kinds of screen printing, namely manual printing and mechanical printing.

Manual printing refers to the manual operation from paper receiving to paper delivery, printing plate moving up and down and scraping printing.

Mechanical printing means that the printing process is completed by mechanical action. Among them, it is divided into semi-automatic and full-automatic printing. Semi-automatic means that the substrate is put in and taken out by manual operation, and printing is done by machinery. Fully automatic means that the whole printing process is completed by machinery.

There is also a fast and simple curved screen printing method-live screen printing, that is, removing the screen layout and printing directly on the surface of the substrate. A large number of processed products, such as latex plastic buckets, cleaning buckets, washbasins, thermos bottles, cups, bowls and plates, can be printed by using the live screen printing method. At the same time, this method can be used to print signboards on cars and special-shaped planes.

Printing classification:

Screen printing not only adapts to ordinary paper printing, but also has wide adaptability. For example: ceramics, glass, printed circuit boards, etc. Printing is different according to the texture of the substrate. Although there is an inseparable internal relationship between the series, each series has its own particularity because of the different texture of the matrix (that is, different chemical and physical properties).

Therefore, people usually divide it into paper printing, plastic printing, ceramic printing, glass printing, circuit board printing, metal printing, textile printing and so on according to the different substrates. In this way, a relatively independent printing system is formed.
