The screen material in which the stencil image is formed in the screen printing process is the textile product. This textile product was previously woven from natural silk while it was replaced by synthetic fabrics by the development of synthetic products. Synthetic fabrics, which are produced for use in screen printing, are made of polyamide and polyester raw material. Polyamide (nylon) synthetic fabrics have a monofilament structure. Polyester fabrics have a multifilament structure. Due to their physical structure and raw material properties, print quality and usage performances differ.
In general, the screen printing operator needs to know, depending on the nature of the job to be printed (polyamide) or multi-fiber (polyester) is the most appropriate weaving types and weaving weights to choose the weaving thickness of the yarn. However, the problems caused by the yarn structure or weaving process of the selected fabric can affect the printing result and cause the loss of technical and economic losses.
Printing has turned into a very big sectoral structure in our country with all printing techniques. In this structure, large enterprises are very sensitive about quality. In order to ensure continuity in print quality, all elements are tried to dominate. It is tried to find permanent solutions to the problems by reaching the source of the inputs used in the printing process. In this context, it is possible to cooperate with the enterprises that produce the synthetic fabrics. The main element in producing solutions is to exchange information. The printing-side performance and the problems should be well defined, so that the fabric manufacturer can also construct the production structure accordingly. The article should be evaluated from this perspective. In the article, it is tried to establish cause-effect relationship by defining the production elements which are effective on print quality and usage performance of synthetic fabrics.
