How Much Do You Know about Sublimation Printing And Screen Printing

  Hi, Nice to see you. The heavy snow has stopped. Everywhere all white, looks so beautiful. In china snow means it will bring a good harvest for the new year. So best wishes for you. Yesterday I have share you there common problems in your digital inkjet printing and give you some ways about how to solve it. In the printing industry, it can be mainly divided into the screen printing and the sublimation printing. Then today in order to late you know more about them I will share you more difference about them.

Screen Printing
  Screen printing refers to the use of screen as a base, and through the method of plate-making , made a printing plate with graphic screen . Screen printing consists of five main elements: screen printing plate, scraper, ink, printing stations and substrates. Use the screen printing plate graphic part of the mesh the ink can through it, non-graphic part of the mesh can not be printed through the basic principles of ink. Printing in one end of the screen printing plate into the ink, with a scraper of ink on the screen printing plate to impose a certain pressure on the other side at the same time toward the screen printing plate moving at a constant speed, the ink is moving scraper from the graphic Part of the mesh extrusion to the substrate.

  Then the screen printing also have many characteristics. Firstly, the screen printing have strong adaptability.Screen printing can not only print on the plane, but also in the curved surface, spherical and concave and convex printing on the substrate. What's more, screen printing can not only printing in hard objects , but also in the soft printing, free from the limitations of the texture of the substrate. Secondly, it has strong sense of three-dimensional and light fastness. Apart from this the screen printing also have large printing area, today  the largest screen printing products up to 3 meters × 4 meters, or even larger. 
  But is also have the disadvantages. For example, this technology is not suitable for the small orders and sometimes if you need more different colors and your cost will be higher. Secondly, this technology is not environmentally friendly and the technology is relative complexity.

Sublimation printing
  Sublimation printing is use the special sublimation paper, sublimation ink and the sublimation printer for printing. A dye-sublimation printer is a computer printer which uses heat to transfer dye onto materials such as a plastic, card, paper, or fabric. The sublimation name was first applied because the dye was considered to make the transition between the solid and gas states without going through a liquid stage. This understanding of the process was later shown to be incorrect. There is some liquefying of the dye. Since then,the process is sometimes known as dye-diffusion, though this has not eliminated the original name. Many consumer and professional dye-sublimation printers are designed and used for producing photographic prints, ID cards, clothing, and more.

  Same as the screen printing, the sublimation printing also have many advantages. Firstly, your patterns printed and transferred are permanent and can not peel or fade also the colors are brilliant and vividly. Secondly, in your process of printing you don't need to worry the dye build up on the fabric.The image can be printed all over the entire item, with no difficulty in printing all the way to the edges.
  Also the disadvantages are as follows, sometime you should take a high cost to by a high quality sublimation printer, or your printing speed will be low and your working effect will not better enough. Then any creases in the apparel during printing leave blank spots behind. And the printing area is limited, the  print range depends on the width of your printer.Mostly the width of the sublimation printer are 1.2m, 1.8m, 3.2m.

  Okay, These all above are my introduce about the sublimation printing and screen printing. Also the share about the advantages of them. If you have any needs or questions welcome to contact us at any time. We will provide you with the best quality product and service. Hope my article can be useful to you.Thank you for your reading.
