Rotary Screen Printing
Roll-to-roll continuous high-speed production for flexible film, labels and thin composite substrates for large-batch orders.
IMD In-Mold Decoration
Printed film pre-inserted before injection molding, permanently fused onto plastic parts for wear-resistant decorative finish.
High-Precision Fine-Line Printing
Spec high mesh screen for ultra-fine traces down to 50μm, used for electronic conductive circuit and miniature component marking

FAQs About Screen Printing
What is industrial precision screen printing?
expand_less expand_moreA: Mesh stencil ink transfer process for permanent marking, logo, serial number and functional ink coating on diversified precision components.
What materials support screen printing?
expand_less expand_moreA: Wide coverage for all mainstream metals, engineering plastics, glass, ceramic and carbon fiber composites with customized pre-treatment.
Difference between screen printing & pad printing?
expand_less expand_moreA: Screen printing thick ink deposit for flat/curved large-area marking; pad printing silicone transfer for deep recess & irregular tiny parts.
What’s the highest precision you can reach?
expand_less expand_moreA: Minimum line width 0.127mm, multi-color registration tolerance ±0.025mm with custom high-precision fixture.
Can we get customized functional ink for special working conditions?
expand_less expand_moreA: Available for high temp, anti-chemical, conductive and biocompatible custom ink formulations.
What level of detail and accuracy can you achieve?
expand_less expand_moreA: Our high-precision screens and registration systems allow for fine detail printing, typically capable of line widths down to 0.005" (0.127mm) or finer depending on the application. We maintain tight tolerances on print placement (often within ±0.001" or ±0.025mm) to ensure consistency across high-volume production runs, which is critical for alignment-sensitive features like scales or circuit patterns.
