When we want to make a message, notice or image known, we see thousands of ways to do it through different styles of information and reproduction of information, such as printed media, which offer attractive graphic options; But when talking about printing, we must distinguish the different existing techniques and the one that best suits our needs. Screen printing is the perfect option among the different printing techniques silk screen printing.
Screen printing is one of the various printing techniques that exist, which consists of transferring an ink through a gauze that is stretched in a frame, hence on certain occasions screen printing is compared with work on canvases , but to achieve the effect you are looking for, the passage of ink is blocked in the sectors of the frame that are not going to expose anything, that is, in the areas where there will be no image by means of an emulsion suitable for this work, in such a way. After blocking what does not show any image, the area in which the presence of figures will occur will be free for the ink to pass and be printed, giving space to the construction of documents and images on any type of material.
One of the best advantages that this printing technique offers is that it is repetitive, that is, once the mold has been made, the rest of the duplicates can be repeated hundreds of times without losing definition.
To apply the screen printing it is necessary to take some steps for its perfect application, so the first thing is to place the mesh in the frame so that it can be tensioned and a good result is achieved, it must go on the support that will be printed After this, the ink is passed through and pressure must be applied to the surface so that the image is achieved, but the pressure must be contained to prevent the ink from overflowing or watering.
An open weave fabric must be used in the print, which must be framed; the fabric must show some type of emulsion that is the product of a photosensitive material. Through contact, the original model is exposed to light so that the parts that do not present an image harden. After this, a washing process occurs, dissolving the parts that should present the image and in this way they are free.
Finally, the support to be printed is placed under the frame and the ink is subsequently added, which passes through the mesh through the parts where the image must be presented. In this way we achieve a successful screen printing service.
