This is a very cool article. Always fascinated to see the prepress process, only being vaguely familiar with screening. However the last two images in the article appear either corrupt or broken, could you re-upload them?

Cheers

Comment on Coarse screens and half tones by Chuck Johnston

Chuck Johnston — Thu, 06 Jan 2011 21:21:30 +0000

What screen angles have you found that work best on your 50T and 65T meshes? I’m in California and the equivalent meshes we use would be 120-55µ or 130-55µ (120 Threads per inch and 55 micron Thread Diameter). For most plastisol jobs we use 230-40µ and the best angle has been 26°. It is totally moiré-free and we can consistently hold down to about 4% dot at 75 lpi. We’ve also found that the water-based inks benefit from a coarser mesh around 120 threads per inch, but we haven’t found the time to test every angle at an assortment of different lpi’s. I appreciate your response.

Kind Regards,

I didn’t realise how much thought had to go into screen printing T shirts. I use DTG for my prints in our store which is so simple; but we get someone to screenprint our large orders. Good to know what you have to do to prepare a design for printing. Will keep it in mind when we are designing our graphics for custom printed Tee’s.

Comment on Screen Printing of Water based inks by Bruce Robertson

Bruce Robertson — Tue, 02 Nov 2010 10:58:55 +0000

It’s great seeing excellence in the UK. Such sharp edges on your work. I’m learning screen printing and just about to move from MX plastisol to discharge sim process for the next stage of my self education. I also have five little hens so enjoy hearing about yours. I have a Light Sussex, two Speckeldy’s and a Rhode Rock. We do love them but they poop all over the lawn. Might have to fence them to one side of the garden.

We now print 6 colours wet on wet with no problems. As we have opted for discharge printing over opaque water based inks as the way forward for us. For none dischargeable colours we have reverted to plastisol inks, using a combination of Wilflex Epic and Grafco which are both phthalates free.

Well of course the fact that lots of waterbased inks contain formaldehyde has not been mentioned here.
Even most of the new 100 % eco friendly waterbased inks contain formaldehyde.Not to mention discharge inks. Hazardous for the printer.

Having read the post and comments I’m curious if you were indeed able to eliminate some of the flash curing between colors?

We use Wilflex PC, Epic, QuantumOne and Oasis.

Thanks for the response on your mesh sizes, I’m very much a newbie getting to grips with printing so being able to see what can be achieved is a great help. Keep up the good work.

Fred Thanks

Steve: We get 55LPI on 50T screens with no problems, our printing is primarily waterbased, we very rarely use screens finer than 81T. We survive quite happily on a diet of 50T and 65T meshes. Appropriate screen coatings and good exposures are essential to keep the emulsion from falling off your mesh as there is little for it to hold on to.

Comment on CMYK T Shirt Print-Screen Printing one rupee by Steve

Steve — Mon, 07 Jun 2010 16:51:23 +0000

Hi Nigel, for this job we used Grafcos transparant process base. No retarders required. The emulsion was by KIWO it has amazing bridging properties and resistant to all waterbased inks and discharge, but unfortunately is very difficult to remove from screens when reclaiming. We use screen print separator for CMYK seps. works straight from the actions pallette, more often than not requires no tweaking. Hope this is helpful.
