How Does It Automatic Screen Printing Machine Work?
Design Creation
The first step in the process of screen printing is to create the design. Once a design has been decided upon, it is printed onto a transparent acetate film, which will then be used to create the screen or stencil.
Selecting And Preparing The Screen
When the design is all set to go, it is time to select the screen and mesh count. Mesh count is the total number of fibres in one square inch. Which mesh count you need will depend on the design being printed:
A higher mesh count can print finer details while preserving a fair coating of ink
Screens with a low mesh count let the ink flow through due to wider openings
Exposing The Emulsion
The transparent acetate film is placed on the emulsion-coated mesh screen carefully under a bright light which causes the emulsion to harden and develop. It must be noted that when multiple colours are involved in the design, separate screens must be used for different colours.
Stencil Creation
Exposing the screen for a specific time will harden the uncovered areas of the screen, and the remaining unhardened emulsion, if any, will be rinsed away to leave a clear imprint on the screen. The screen is then dried, and if there are any touch-ups required, it will be done by the printer to make the imprint as close to the original design as possible. Now, the stencil is ready to be used.
Preparation For Print
The material to be printed is placed flat on the printing board, and the screen on top of the material in the desired position, ready to be printed.
Applying The Design
In this step, the printed design will come to life. The screen is lowered down to the printing board. The desired colour ink is added to the top of the screen. A squeegee will evenly distribute the ink along the length of the screen. The ink presses through the open areas of the stencil and transfers on the underlying silk, consequently printing the design on the product.
Heat Curing & Finishing
Lastly, the printed product is heat-cured by passing through a dryer, creating a smooth design. This is done so that the design does not fade away.
Types Of Automatic Screen Printing Machine
Spot Colour Screen Printing
The most common screen printing technique is spot colour screen printing. Spot colour screen printing uses the ink's stock colour by printing it through the stencil of the mesh. This technique produces a vibrant solid spot of colour. It is much simpler to use as compared to other screen printing methods. It can be an excellent option for printing on t-shirts, jackets, and hoodies, for example.
Halftone Printing
In halftone printing, single colours in gradients are printed. The entire process uses a single colour of ink, and this colour gets half-toned, resulting in a different shade when looked at from a distance. This technique is best used to obtain the multi-colour printing look without actually doing it. In addition, it is a cost-effective method since only one colour of ink is used.
Grayscale Printing
Grayscale printing is an excellent method of printing full-colour images as one colour grayscales or halftones. The print will look more detailed if the halftone has more dots. It is not a black and white technique; instead, it pulls out the CMY or RGB or colour scales only but in shades of grey. Grayscale printing is one of the most cost-effective screen printing techniques, often used for printing black and white designs onto fabrics.
Duotone Printing
Duotone printing uses the combination of two halftones for printing the same image with two colours. First, a black halftone is printed with black ink, and then a second halftone is printed with colour ink. This technique is similar to sepia-toned print in photography. It provides a sophisticated and artsy effect.
Cmyk (4-Color Printing)
It is the most complex screen printing technique. It involves the four basic colours – cyan, magenta, yellow and black. These four colours are combined to produce the required colour tones. It can be done manually but preferably should be done automatically for best results.
Simulated Process Printing
The simulated printing process combines the four-colour printing process with spot colour printing. Since this technique is useful for both lighter and darker shades, it is versatile and popular with people looking to produce photorealistic print detail.
Ensuring consistency and uniformity across designs
As the same stencil is used, it is much easier for the machine to accurately reproduce the same design on the chosen materials.
Durability
Compared to other printing methods, screen printing can apply a heavy ink coverage, resulting in a durable design. Additionally, certain coatings and additives can make the ink resistant to UV rays, scratches, moisture and chemicals, allowing screen-printed products to be used outdoors and in harsh environments without fading.
Speeding up the process and tackling large orders
As expected, the automatic process is far quicker and more efficient than the manual alternative. In fact, speed is one of the key reasons that so many businesses are moving over to these automated systems.
Cutting down on labour and costs
This increase in efficiency, speed and accuracy can help to reduce both the manual labour required to produce goods, as well as labour costs.


Steady Quality
When your employee is about to end his shift, the shirt quality usually drops, even if you’re a proud automatic screen printing machine. Even the most efficient automatic screen printing press business will eventually run out of ink.
Speed
Speed is the most significant benefit of using an auto printing machine. It is easy to anticipate a shirt press to produce between 500 and 1,000 shirts each hour.
Reducing stress
Finally, as the manual process is left down to machines, it does not rely on humans to push and pull squeegees, remove products and ensure everything is lined up correctly. Instead, most will only be dealing with pushing buttons and making sure the machines are working as they should.
Speed. Automatic screen printing is built for speed, producing orders much more rapidly than manual printing. Production moves more quickly and easily. While requiring less physical work and time, an automatic machine allows you to scale up your business and pass on the cost savings to your customers.
Reduce Labor Needs. Automatic machines require less labor compared to manual presses. You need fewer (or even no) employees for a quicker output, giving you the independence to continue taking on orders even when hiring good employees is difficult. This will give you more time to build out your business and find new customers while continuing to provide excellent support to your existing customers.
Protect Yourself. Screen printers will also be thrilled to save their bodies from the ongoing physical wear and tear of manual printing. Talk to any manual printer and they’ll tell you the toll it takes on their shoulders, elbows and hands over the years. An automatic machine does all the labor for you.
Consistency. The consistency of automated machine printing also reduces human error. With no adjustment needed, the machine automatically prints the right colors in the right spot every time. No matter how good a printer is, they start to get tired as the day goes on and not be as consistent with squeegee pressure, flash times and more.
Flexibility. An automated machine provides the flexibility to offer more high-color options and a diversity of jobs, including large orders.
Long-Term Needs. As business needs grow, equipment needs change. While automatic screen printing machines are more expensive than manual machines, you will see the returns of your investment quickly. If you plan to stay in the business for years, an automatic machine will quickly pay for itself.
Getting started with Automatic Screen Printing Machine
Automatic screen printing machine: It doesn’t matter whether you purchase a pre-owned screen printing press or a new one; you want an automatic screen printing machine that will endure. For the most part, this involves purchasing some of the best automatic screen printing machines. Remember that just because you have an “8 color press” doesn’t imply you can print in that many colors right away. If at all feasible, I recommend that the print business begins with a 10-color press. With the automatic screen printing press in place, you may expand your business without having to make a significant financial commitment.
Flash Dryer: Each press will most likely need two flash dryers. More would be excessive.
Top-notch air compressor. In the event of an air compressor failure, your business would come to a sudden end. Maintain your compressor and ask for assistance if you’re unsure about this.
Suitable conveyor dryer: Your manual printing dryer will probably not be enough for big projects. You don’t have to buy a 72-inch dryer right now, but you will need something that can handle a more significant number of shirts down the road.
Airlines: You’ll have to install airlines in your shop since presses are autonomous. Many choose to have them installed in the ceiling. However, other businesses have decided to place them through the floor instead. Maintenance and troubleshooting are made easier when airlines are easily accessible.
More electrical power: Make sure your store has enough three-phase electricity to meet your requirements. You’ll need a lot of electricity to run your equipment! Make sure your facility can accommodate this additional load by hiring a certified electrician.
Software for managing screen printing operations: While you may believe you can put off company management until the software is ready, this is a mistake. You need to make sure you can invoicing, order processing, and order tracking seamlessly.
