Discuss How The Screen
Printing Technique Affect In The
Current Market
The screen printing process
evolved over the years. Today, it
offers ample innovation and
creativity, thus playing a major role
in the printing industry because of
the availability of advanced screen
printing machines, UV technology
coupled with the availability of
innovative special effects inks.
Screen printing is now quicker,
cheaper, produces better quality
images, and offers a number of Fig. 4 Exposure Machine Table Type
special applications. But advanced
screen printing with a high level of
automation is not everybody’s cup
of tea. Having advanced machines
in place is not sufficient to run a
profitable screen printing business.
There is no profit from the press of
a button like an ATM card. There is
no shortcut. Because not only does
the set-up process take
considerably longer than other
techniques, but being able to truly Fig. 5 Flatbed Rotary Printing Table
master printing high-quality
images using the screen printing
process also takes much longer,
because there are a number of
variables involved. Today, there
exist different systems designed to
help screen printers to achieve
better results. But it revolves
around the simple concept or
standardization of the entire
screen printing process.
