Attention to the problem when selecting mesh screen printing
First, consider the difficulty of the ink through the mesh in mesh screen printing. Medium tone with high transparency ink, pigment particles are relatively fine, Relative to pigment carrier ratio, the ink through, this ink using high mesh screen can also pass well; General plastic inks, special purpose inks, pigment concentration of high ink, although it is fine particles through relatively poor.
(2) If the substrate surface is rough, generally use a lower mesh screen.
Such as leather, canvas, foamed sheets, wood, and other materials. Due to the substrate surface roughness, ink absorption is strong so you want to use a low mesh screen, to ensure that enough ink through.
(3) The select screen according to fine lines. In general, fine lines to choose high mesh screen.
(4) Choose the screen to consider the cost, in order to meet the printing requirements, as far as possible to choose the lower price of the screen.
How to choose mesh according to the substrate?
(1) fiber fabric printing, when the substrate material is fiber fabric, such as clothes, scarf, tie, schoolbag, etc., can choose thin silk mesh, nylon mesh or polyester silk mesh.
(2) paper printing, when the substrate material is paper, such as printing: advertising pictures, postcards, wallpaper, calendar, etc., you can choose thin silk mesh, thick silk mesh, nylon mesh, thin polyester silk mesh, polyester multi-silk mesh, monofilament polyester silk mesh.
(3) plastic, glass, ceramics, metal products, wood products printing, when the substrate material is glassware, metal containers, wood, ceramics, plastic products, toys, etc., can choose thick silk mesh, single silk nylon mesh, thin polyester silk mesh, thin silk mesh, stainless steel wire mesh.
(4) electronic device printing, when the substrate material is circuit board, such as integrated circuit, semiconductor components, insulation cloth, television components.Can choose thick silk mesh, single nylon mesh or polyester multi-silk mesh.
