Silk Screening
Silk screening applied to sheet metal bracket
The Silk Screen machine is used to add graphics to your parts. Silk
screening is a method of stencil printing in which ink is forced
through a stretched silk mesh. Inks can be in one or more colors.
Screenprinting
inks can be used to work with a variety of materials, such as textiles,
ceramics, metal, wood, paper, glass, and plastic. As a result, screen
printing is used in many different industries.
Silk screening is usually applied to flat surfaces such as:
Silk screening requires a custom screen tool containing the desired text or pattern.
Cost reduction options include:
- avoiding very small details
- minimizing the number of colors
- minimizing the print area
Silk Screening Design Considerations
For silk screening we recommend one of the following bases:
- Matte powder coat
- Anodized aluminum with fine brushing
- Injection molding with matte finish
Capital letter sizes at least 0.1 inch high are recommended.
