SCREENCOAT 3D EMULSION
SCREENCOAT 3D NEW FOR HIGH THICKNESS PRINTING KG.1
Screencoat 3D Emulsion for high-thickness printing with exceptional precision and the ability to print fine details.
Suitable for: plastisol, UV, and solvent-based inks.
To achieve the desired thickness, you need to choose the right mesh and product that will allow excellent ‘edges’ and a relief effect (high deposit).
Screencoat 3D gives the best results when used considering the following parameters (assessment of the finest detail in the graphic):
We recommend that you pay very close attention to the graphics, as you will not be able to print details that are smaller than the thickness of the emulsion. Rule: The thickness of the thinnest line you want to print, multiplied by 3, represents the thickness of the emulsion you need to achieve.
QUICK USER GUIDE:
For best results, we recommend using red-orange light (inactinic light) and the following procedure:
1. Use a coarse mesh screen
2. The mesh should be stretched evenly and tightly
3. Apply the emulsion slowly, pressing evenly on the mesh.
4. Apply two strokes on the printing side and two strokes on the squeegee side, then dry at 35 degrees for 20-30 minutes.
5. Apply two thick layers on the printing side.
6. Apply the final layer very slowly and evenly, without pressing too much. This will give you an even layer of emulsion for finishing.
7. Dry at 34-40 degrees until the entire emulsion is completely dry – or at least 3 to 4 hours.
The table below shows the reference values for exposing a white mesh with a 5000 Watt halogen lamp with a thick-layer emulsion applied (Screencoat 3D).
Important: these are only approximate values that can assist you with lighting, which depends on many factors (mesh color, thread density, distance from the light source, light source intensity, etc.).
