In the following cases, it is recommended to use a high-mesh screen to print silk-screen silicone:
High-precision patterns are required: When the patterns to be printed are very fine or complex, a high-mesh screen can provide a more delicate and precise printing effect. This is because a high-mesh screen has smaller mesh holes, which can more accurately control the transfer of silicone ink, thereby avoiding blurring or diffusion of ink during printing, ensuring the clarity and detail of the pattern.
Fine substrate surface: If the surface of the substrate is very fine or smooth, such as some high-end textiles, leather or plastic products, a high-mesh screen can better adapt to its surface characteristics. The silicone ink layer printed by a high-mesh screen is thinner and more uniform, and can better adhere to the surface of the substrate to avoid printing defects.
Use thin and fluid silicone ink: When printing with thin and fluid silicone ink, a high-mesh screen can better control the flow of ink. Since the mesh of high-mesh screen is smaller, the ink will encounter greater resistance when passing through the mesh, thereby slowing down the flow of ink, allowing the ink to be more evenly distributed on the substrate, avoiding unnecessary diffusion or penetration.
Pursuing higher printing quality: In some occasions with extremely high requirements for printing quality, such as art reproduction, high-end product packaging, etc., high-mesh screens can provide higher printing quality. This is because high-mesh screens can more accurately control the transfer and distribution of ink, thereby ensuring that the color saturation, glossiness and layering of the printed product are in the best state.
In summary, when it is necessary to print high-precision patterns, the surface of the substrate is delicate, and thin and fluid silicone ink is used, or higher printing quality is pursued, it is recommended to use high-mesh screens to print silk-screen silicone. This can ensure the clarity, stability and consistency of the printing effect and meet the diverse needs of customers.
