Silicrothedral printing (or just silk -aircraft) is a printing method that uses a silk -trained sieve (template with holes in the form of small points) to transmit paint or ink to the surface, for example, on textiles, paper, plastic, metal and other materials. This printing method is widely used in various industries, such as clothing, packaging, stickers, printing on advertising materials and many others.
The process of silkography includes the following stages:
Design preparation: First creates a design that needs to be printed. This design is then converted to a special format suitable for silk -tract printing.
Production of the template: creates a silk -trained sieve, on which the holes correspond to the design. Usually this is done by stretching the fabric to the frame and applying a photo emulsion, which is then irradiated by light through the photo machine to create holes in the sieves in the right places.
Preparation of the material: the surface on which the print will be produced (for example, fabric or paper) is prepared to better stick paint or ink to it and create a clear pattern.
Print: a silk -trained sieve is installed above the material, and paint or ink is passed through it. They pass through the holes in the sieve and are applied to the surface in accordance with the design.
drying: After printing the material must be dried so that the paint or ink is fixed and not spread.
Silkography allows you to create vivid and durable images on various materials, and it remains a popular method in the production of various products with applied images.
The advantages and disadvantages of silk -tract printing
silk -trained printing is a type of graphic printing, in which ink or paint are transferred to the surface through a sieve, usually made of silk or other material. This method has its advantages and disadvantages.
The advantages of silk -tract printing:
Universality: Silk -traffic print can be used on various surfaces, including textiles, paper, plastic, glass, metal and even wood.
Durability: Images created using silk -tract printing, usually very racks to external influences, such as sunlight, moisture and wear and wear and tear.
