Rotary Screen Print

Rotary Screen Printing is achieved by forcing ink through a fine mesh screen with a squeegee onto the product and is ideal for cylindrical objects.

Advantages

• Large print areas are possible on cylindrical products
• Close PMS matches are possible on white or light-coloured products
• Most screen print inks are quick drying and can be shipped immediately after printing
• Metallic gold and silver ink are available
• Many products can print five colours (including white) with tight multi-colour registration

Limitations

• Close PMS matches are more difficult on darker products and will only be approximate. In some instances, a white base will create a better print
• Unable to print variable data
• Each colour requires its own setup charge

Artwork Requirements

• Artwork must be supplied in editable vector format
• Fonts are advised to be converted to outlines/objects to avoid font conflicts
