The mesh distance is an important thing in the screen printing mesh process. If it is not set properly, it will result in unsatisfactory printing results. Maishi is a professional printing net manufacturer. According to his own production technology and understanding of the screen printing network. Maishi experts told us the following experience.
Screen printing meshs should pay attention to the spacing between printed and printed webs when used in ceramics, clothing, and cosmetics.
According to what to determine the mesh distance:
1. The tension of the wire mesh.
2. Vertical angle of the screen plate center
3. The shape of the silkscreen article
4. Surface material of silk screen items
5. The ink is thick and sticky.
6. The dimensions of the screen plate.
Maishi experts also talked about the problem that should also be noted: the general mesh distance in screen printing mesh is 9.5-12.7mm, but it is more reasonable and more used is 1.5-3.0mm. The mesh distance has brought many problems to the printing quality and registration, so the mesh distance should be as small as possible. When printing some products with higher precision, the allowable amount of screen deformation directly determines the size of the mesh distance. In electronic product printing, the mesh spacing of stainless steel screens tends to be smaller, about 0.1-0.2 mm.
Whether it is printing is a pattern or a clothing textile, the mesh distance needs to be taken seriously. Once it is not set properly, it will cause waste of ink and waste of cost. So we must pay attention to it.
