Glass Silk Screen Printing Production Line

Single-Colour & Multi-Colour Printing with Screen Preparation Equipment

Why Choose SANKEN for Your Glass Silk Screen Printing Production Line?

Single-Colour and Multi-Colour Configurations

Single-colour, four-colour and five-colour line layouts are available as planning references. The number of printing stations and their arrangement are selected according to the required pattern, colour sequence and production capacity.

Servo-Controlled Printing

Servo control manages the printing squeegee and ink-return movements. PLC and touch-screen controls allow operators to manage line settings, with programmed protection functions for equipment operation.

Glass Positioning and Conveying

Glass positioning mechanisms and synchronized anti-slip conveyor belts support glass transfer and alignment through the printing process.

Screen Preparation Equipment

The supporting equipment covers mesh stretching, emulsion coating, exposure, developing and screen drying. This allows screen preparation requirements to be considered alongside the printing line.

Glass Silk Screen Printing Process

Glass Printing Workflow

Prepared Glass   →   Glass Positioning   →   Screen Printing   →   Drying or Curing as Required   →   Inspection

This is an outline for line planning. Glass preparation, ink drying or curing, and any subsequent heat treatment must be matched to the selected ink system and finished product. These stages do not imply that all equipment is included in every configuration.

Screen Preparation Workflow

Mesh Stretching & Frame Bonding   →   Emulsion Coating   →   Screen Drying   →   Exposure   →   Developing   →   Final Screen Drying

Screen preparation is a separate supporting process. The horizontal dryer is used after emulsion coating; the vertical dryer is used after screen cleaning and developing.

Glass Screen Printing Line Configurations

The printing line is configured around glass size, artwork, the number of colours and the required output. Multi-colour projects also require the colour sequence, alignment and drying or curing arrangements to be defined before the layout is finalized.

  • Single-colour configuration for a one-colour printing requirement.
  • Four-colour and five-colour configurations for projects requiring multiple colour stages.
  • PLC and touch-screen operation with servo-controlled printing movements.
  • Conveying and positioning equipment selected for the required glass format.

Screen Preparation and Supporting Equipment

Automatic Screen Stretching Machine

PLC and touch-screen controls manage mesh clamping and tension adjustment. After the mesh reaches the required tension, pneumatic lifting brings the screen frame into contact with the mesh for adhesive bonding.

Automatic Screen Coating Machine

Coating settings include speed, single-sided or double-sided application and repeated passes. The described configuration allows 1–20 coating passes, with a constant-pressure system, pneumatic frame clamping and automatic stop after the preset cycle.

Horizontal Screen Drying Oven

The horizontal drawer-type oven dries screens after photosensitive emulsion coating. Screens are placed with the printing surface facing upward. Temperature control and hot-air circulation support the drying process.

Screen Exposure Machine

Horizontal and vertical exposure configurations are described in the equipment range. The control system stores exposure settings and completes vacuum, exposure and venting stages automatically. Light-controlled exposure and an oil-free vacuum pump support the process.

Glass Screen Printing Line Planning & Project Support

SANKEN has been exporting glass-processing machinery since 2002. For glass screen printing projects, we support equipment configuration, production-line planning, factory layout, equipment manufacturing, pre-shipment inspection, installation, commissioning, operator training and after-sales technical support.

To discuss a suitable configuration, provide your glass dimensions and thickness, print area, artwork, number of colours, ink system, required output, existing screen preparation equipment and factory dimensions. Drying, curing and any downstream heat-treatment requirements should also be confirmed during planning.
