What is the difference between screen printing mesh and other printing methods?

A screen printing mesh screen can be understood as a screen printing as a plate base, and a screen printing plate with a graphic image is produced by photosensitive plate making. In the current market, the printing nets used by all walks of life are screen printing nets, which have been eliminated before. Then there will be many people asking about the difference between screen printing and other printing methods.

The difference between screen printing meshs and other printing methods can be distinguished from three aspects:

1: Printing adaptability is not the same. It can be understood that other printing methods can only print a part, and the screen printing screen can print the entire part. Whether it is printed on hard objects, it can also be printed on soft objects, regardless of the texture of the substrate.

2: The thickness of the printed ink layer is also different. The texture of the rich offset and embossed ink layer is generally 5 microns, the gravure is about 12 microns, the flexographic (aniline) printed ink layer is 10 microns thick, and the screen printed ink layer thickness far exceeds the above ink. The thickness of the layer is generally up to about 30 microns. Thick screen printing for printed circuit boards with an ink layer thickness of up to 1000 microns. Braille is printed with foaming ink, and the thickness of the ink layer after foaming can reach 300 microns. The screen printing ink layer is thick, the printing quality is rich, and the three-dimensional feeling is strong, which is incomparable with other printing methods. Screen printing

mesh can be done not only in monochrome, but also in color and screen color printing.

3: The printed area is different.

Generally, the printing area such as offset printing and embossing prints a maximum size of a full sheet size, which exceeds the full sheet size and is limited by mechanical equipment. Screen printing mesh is possible to print on a large area. The largest printed product area can reach 3 meters × 4 meters, and may be even larger.
