What is silicone printing technology?

Silicone printing is a printing process that utilizes the basic principle that the mesh holes in the image and text parts of the screen printing plate can pass through silicone, while the non image and text parts cannot pass through silicone. A scraping scraper is used to apply a certain pressure to the silicone, causing it to be squeezed onto the substrate from the mesh holes in the image and text parts.

Classification:

Printing methods can be divided into two types according to printing methods:

Manual printing and mechanical automatic printing; Manual printing can be divided into platform printing and fixed printing, while mechanical printing can be divided into automatic and semi-automatic printing.

Printing methods can be divided into two types based on the type of silicone:

Single silicone printing and double silicone printing; Single component silicone refers to silicone that can naturally solidify in air without the need for baking. The disadvantage is that its operation is difficult to control, and the advantage is that it does not require heating, so it will not affect the substrate. Double silicone is composed of two types: A and B. If AB is not mixed, it will not cure, so the operation is very convenient. The disadvantage is that it needs to be heated for curing.
