Screen stretching and welding of aluminium frames
We offer a comprehensive service for screen stretching and welding of aluminium frames from profiles of various dimensions.
We use high-grade aluminium, which guarantees durability, stability and resistance to deformation.
Our experience of over 25 years in the industry allows us to deliver orders to the highest level of precision and quality.
For tensioning, we use meshes from recognised and certified manufacturers - SEFAR and MeshPolska, which allows us to provide products that meet the requirements of both professional printing houses and smaller studios.
Geometry of screen nets
The geometry of screen printing meshes has a key impact on print quality and process efficiency.
Basic parameters such as mesh density and thread diameter determine the amount of ink transferred, the precision of detail reproduction and the consumption of materials.
Key aspects:
-
Mesh density and thread diameter affect the ability to reproduce details
-
The grid structure determines the sharpness of the printed edges
-
The openings of the mesh determine the amount of ink transferred to the substrate
-
The grid parameters affect the uniformity of coverage and speed of ink drying
-
The choice of mesh is important for the efficiency and quality of the entire printing process
The technical sheets for the meshes provide data on mesh opening, thickness, open area and theoretical ink consumption per unit area.
Marking and identification of nets
Each mesh is marked according to a specific scheme, e.g.
100-40 PW Y - a net with 100 threads per cm², thread diameter 40 µm, single weave (PW) and yellow colour (Y).
The former letter designations (SL, S, M, T, HD) have been replaced by precise numerical values - e.g. 120-31 corresponds to the former 120 S net.
Additional symbols indicate the type of weave or special treatment:
-
PW - plain weave
-
TW - twill weave
-
OSC - flattened mesh, used e.g. for UV varnishes
-
Y - yellow colour, limiting reflection of UV light during exposure
