Industrial Screen Printing

Screen printing for industrial projects is vital to the success of many in-plant manufacturing operations. As an industry-leading screen printer for over five decades, Techprint provides custom sheet-fed and industrial screen printing services to support a broad range of needs. We specialize in large batch printing, providing high-quality products and services on time and within budget.

How Screen Printing Works

Screen printing involves pressing inks through porous stencils directly onto the surface of a product. The mesh screen acts as a stencil, trapping the ink and preventing it from passing through to the substrate except where intentional gaps have been left in the design.

At Techprint, we understand that certain materials can affect the final color outcome. We carefully select the perfect color to match clients’ specifications, with files of every order to ensure that color issues are never a problem. We also curate four times using a hot belt and UV and infrared technology before cooling and cutting the printed materials.

To accomplish successful industrial screen printing, specific coatings may need to be carefully layered one over the other. This can be an ideal method of printing for industrial manufacturers because it offers a practical way to identify, label, and decorate products and equipment.

Common Applications and Materials of Industrial Screen Printing

Industrial screen printing plays an essential role in the success of many in-plant manufacturing operations and supports wide-ranging applications, including:

Materials that can be screen-printed include steel, plastic, and aluminum, as well as:

Other materials that can be screen-printed include painted, powder-coated, or laminated surfaces.

Benefits of Screen Printing

At Techprint, we offer a broad range of screen printing services that deliver the following benefits:

Versatility

Screen printing offers endless design flexibility, allowing the use of multiple ink colors on metals, plastics, and more. Custom screen printing options available for industrial products include:

• Process color printing
• Color matching
• Precision automated screen printing
• Conventional and ultraviolet inks

Durability

Screen printing can apply a heavy ink coverage, resulting in a more durable design. Certain coatings and additives can be used to make the ink resistant to UV rays, scratches, moisture, and chemicals, meaning screen-printed products can be used outdoors or in harsh environments.

Scalability

Custom screen printing can be used to efficiently produce high volumes of screen-printed products. This makes it an ideal process for industrial applications that require repeated printing of the same design.
