Classification of Screen Printing Machines Available on the Market

First of all, in order to clearly understand and classify the different types of screen printing machines available on the market, we need to understand what screen printing is.

What is Screen Printing?

Screen printing is a printing technique with a simple process that produces suitable color output, creating products with high aesthetic value. The term screen printing originated from the time when the printing mesh (stencil) was made from silk. Over time, this mesh has been diversified and can now be made from various materials such as fabrics, synthetic fibers, and even metal mesh, which is why it is also known as mesh printing.

From the method of printing onto surface materials, screen printing is applied for both black-and-white and color printing on products of various shapes and sizes. Depending on the shape and characteristics of each product, designers create different printing stencils, which leads to the classification of different types of screen printing machines on the market.

Circular Screen Printing Machine (Rotary Screen Printing)

This type of screen printing machine is designed with multiple printing frames arranged in a circular layout, allowing it to print complex products that require multiple printing steps and detailed designs. For example, if you need to print a T-shirt with a multi-colored image, a circular screen printing machine would be used to produce the product effectively.

Cylindrical Screen Printing Machine

When it comes to cylindrical screen printing machines, they are commonly associated with plastic cups and paper cups featuring patterns and text, as these products are printed using this type of machine. Simply put, the machine is designed with a printing mold that holds the cup in place. The cylindrical screen printing machine then prints the required content onto the surface of the cup, completing the product.

Flat Screen Printing Machine

Flat Screen Printing Machine

This type of machine operates on a mechanism similar to a round screen printing machine but is used for simpler products that require only a single printing pass. First, the product to be printed is placed into the mold of the flat screen printing machine. The squeegee then spreads the ink evenly across the product’s surface. After printing, the product is removed, left to dry, and finally packaged to complete the process.

Mini Screen Printing Machine

Designed for printing small products without requiring much space, the mini screen printing machine has a structure similar to a standard flat screen printing machine.

All of the above are basic types of screen printing machines currently available on the market. In addition, there are many other variations designed to meet more specific and detailed customer needs.

At screen printing machine manufacturing facilities, many other types of machines are also available, such as vacuum machines, manual screen printing machines, and more.

In conclusion, this overview helps provide a clearer understanding of the common types of screen printing machines available on the market today. Customers can also contact screen printing machine suppliers to place custom orders and personalize machines to suit their specific production goals. Hopefully, this article has helped you gain a better understanding of screen printing machines.
