Benefits of Automatic Screen Printing Machines for the Textile and Garment Industry

Automatic screen printing machine ― In the process of making clothes, we are already familiar with the screen printing process. Screen printing is a technique of printing pictures, photos, caricatures, typography, and various other design results onto the surface of clothes, especially t-shirts. We know that in the past the screen printing process was done manually/conventionally using human power and simple tools. In this article, we will discuss automatic screen printing machines and their differences from the usual screen printing process. Read the explanation below!

Automatic Screen Printing Machine from Pukka Indonusa

In the previous article, we discussed a solution for the textile and garment industry through the use of an automatic sewing machine from Jeehe which can be used to realize standard, aesthetic, and even complex/complicated stitches with ease. This time, an equally interesting solution is an automatic/digital screen printing machine that will certainly add value to your product and business, especially in the textile and garment industry.

The automatic/digital screen printing machine offered by Pukka Indonusa has its advantages compared to other screen printing machines. The first advantage is that this automatic/digital screen printing machine has 30 stations that can be used for the preparation, drying, and pick-up processes. Of the 30 stations, 8 of them are used for the screen printing and the rest is for preparation and drying for a faster process compared to the manual. Therefore, this machine will speed up the screen printing process and save your production time.

In addition, this automatic screen printing machine can mix up to 8 colors, so, the resulting colors will be richer and more varied.

Difference between Automatic Screen Printing and Conventional Screen Printing

Then, what is the difference between automatic/digital screen printing and conventional/manual screen printing? In general, there are still people who cannot tell the difference between digital screen printing and manual screen printing, even though this difference is quite significant.

For conventional screen printing, the ink is poured directly onto the shirt by swiping it onto the screen printing where the desired image or writing has been formed. Usually, this conventional screen printing process still uses simple tools such as wood and human power. Meanwhile, for digital screen printing, the ink will be automatically poured onto the t-shirt using a machine, so the process will be faster, and the human effort required will also be minimal.

Second, for conventional screen printing, the image on the screen printing is produced through a manual print process. Each different color uses a different screen. If the screen printing has three colors or even more, then the number of screens must be adjusted according to the number of colors. You can imagine what if the existing screen printing designs have many colors but are done manually, surely it will waste a lot of time from screening to drying in multiple cycles, right?

In addition, this automatic screen printing machine will provide a linear and fast process. It is because the screen printing machine is connected directly to the computer and can be applied directly to the desired garment. So that screen printing results can be completed in one round, with complete color, and in dry conditions.

Those are some benefits of an automatic screen printing machine that will make your business more effective and efficient.
