Different between Screen Printing and Digital Printing

What's Screen Printing
Screen printing is a printing technique whereby a mesh is used to transfer ink onto a substrate, except in areas made impermeable to the ink by a blocking stencil.
Advantages of Screen Printing
  1. Highly cost-efficient process for bulk orders.
  2. Easy to print on specified areas.
  3. Huge range of printable fabrics such as wood, textiles, glass and more.
  4. Top-quality output.
  5. Long-lasting prints.
Screen printing is the ultimate option for designs that need a top level of vibrancy especially when printing on dark background or product. Used for larger orders, the dye colour in screen printing equipment is applied thicker than the digital printing that results in brighter colour even on darker shades.
What's Digital Printing
Digital printing is the process of printing digital-based images directly onto a variety of media substrates. There is no need for a printing plate, unlike with offset printing. It usually refers to professional printing where small-run jobs from desktop publishing and other digital sources are printed using large-format and/or high-volume laser or inkjet printers. Digital printing has a higher cost per page than more traditional offset printing methods.
Advantages of Digital Printing
  1. Easy to print various colours.
  2. Changeable data and personalisation options.
  3. Minimum set up costs.
  4. The design does not bump out.
  5. Good for short runs.
Digital printing is ideally suited on a light coloured base as the ink is applied thinner that enables the design to shine through.

Feeding Operation of Hot Air Stenter

Do you are already familiar with the feeding operation of the Hot Air Stenter machine? Although this operation is relatively simple, the problems that need attention are relatively trivial, and this operation will affect the subsequent processing effect of the hot air stenter machine. So as a user, we also need to pay attention to this part of the content. In actual work, we must wear the guide cloth according to the requirements, and check the worn guide cloth to ensure correctness. Then we need to clean the hot air stenter machine first, especially pay attention to check the cloth rack and the front of the machine for dirt, and clean it in time. In addition, you need to check the needle clip for debris and clean it up. In addition, the site environment should be kept clean and hygienic. When the inspection work is completed, we need to classify the fabrics to be produced according to the process conditions. Generally, the same process fabrics will be used for centr...

LiCheng Flat Screen Printing Machine

Zhejiang LiCheng is devoted towards offering the qualitative range of Flat Screen Printing Machine , as per client’s precise need and requirements.   Flat screen printing machine working principle: Take the commonly used hand-screen flat screen printing machine as an example, the working principle of the screen printing machine can be described as follows: The transmission mechanism transmits the power so that the squeegee squeezes the ink and the screen printing plate during the movement so that the screen Printing plate and the substrate to form a nip, the screen has tension N1 and N2, the force on the squeegee F2, rebound so that the screen printing plate in addition to the imprinting line are not in contact with the substrate, the ink in Under the action of the squeezing force F1 of the squeegee, the squeegee slides from the moving nip to the substrate through the mesh. In Flat Screen Printing Technology the screen is flat and moves up and down. the Squeez...

Difference Between Flat Screen Printer&Rotary Screen Printer

Most of the screen printing procedures are different; we can discuss about the difference between Flat Screen Printing Machine & Rotary Screen Printing Process: As to Flat Screen Printer , the screen is flat and moves up and down. Beside, the Rotary screen is round in size and it rotates. In Flat screen printer, the Squeeze is used. In Rotary Screen Printing, just Roller is used. Small width fabric (45-50″) is printed on Flat Screen Printing. On the other side, large width fabric is printed on Rotary screen printing. In flat screen printing pattern, there are only 6 to 8 color is available. But if you use the Rotary Screen printing, then you will be able to use 16 to 24 colors in a pattern. Flat screen printer process gives a lower production rate. And the Rotary Screen printing is comparatively faster than Flat Screen printing and production rate is 3 times higher than that. The initial investment cost for Flat screen printing machine is low, so that it’s less expens...
