Ardeje (Valence, France) develops and integrates chemistries and processes for industrial manufacturing systems using primarily inkjet technology, jetting functional fluids for organic photovoltaic, lighting, smart textile,...
Continued from The Challenges of Functional Inkjet Printing. All types of inkjet technologies – CIJ, TIJ, and PIJ – present some fundamental limitations that developers must...
Pulling colors from artwork so that they can be reproduced on screen-printed apparel doesn’t need to be complicated. In fact, the whole process of breaking a...
Printing done within industrial manufacturing processes has traditionally been dominated by analog methods, particularly screen printing. Inkjet is increasingly becoming part of the discussion, however. Beyond...
Continuing his exploration of mesh tension loss, Dr. Anderson focuses on optimizing stretching procedures to consistently produce stable, high-tension screens. Learn how to minimize thread deflection...
First: What makes something “industrial?” “Digital inkjet?” Or “print?”
• Traditional o 88- to 92-percent water; o Transparent, designed for printing on 100-percent cotton light backgrounds (pastels and whites); o And, virtually...
Transitioning from plastisol- to water-based processes will require new routines and techniques, from the screenroom to the dryer. Here is a quick snapshot of some rules...
Printers often ask me if it’s possible to deliver predictable color to clients every time, in a foolproof way. The answer is yes. Color is just...
We all get caught in the grind of pushing orders through our businesses, and the quality of what we produce can be lost in the shuffle....
