Definitions
- the present invention relates to a perforated pattern, particularly suitable for perforated screen printing stencils both in rotary printing and in flat printing.
- Hole pattern stencils are used in particular in the textile printing industry, for example for printing on fabrics by means of so-called rotary screen printing or planographic printing. Such hole patterns are also used for the manufacture of integrated circuits for electronic engraving purposes for the manufacture of printing cylinders and for the etching of glass.
- a large number of different printing stencils or perforated patterns are available, which are generally relatively expensive, although the principle is that the finer the sieve or perforated pattern, the more expensive the corresponding stencil is, both in terms of production and in procurement. Furthermore, depending on the type of printing effect to be achieved, only one type of stencil or perforation pattern can be used, or several interacting stencils or perforation patterns must be used to achieve a certain effect. However, this either makes the production of the perforated pattern templates necessary for textile printing very expensive and complex, or the achievement of certain effects is impossible.
- the hole pattern proposed according to the invention is characterized in that the individual holes are elongated, the directions of the longitudinal dimensions of at least some of the holes being angled to one another.
- FIG. 1 shows an embodiment variant of a screen printing perforated pattern designed according to the invention
- the hole pattern 1 consists of perforations or individual holes 2, 3 and 4, which are separated from one another by gaps or web-like strips.
- the perforations according to the invention are now elongated, such as rhomboid or diamond-shaped.
- rhombuses or rhombuses represent equilateral parallelograms, the rhomboid-like perforations according to the invention having an acute angle of 60 ° and correspondingly an obtuse angle of 120 °.
- the hole pattern shown in FIG. 1 is particularly suitable as a template for rotary cylinders or for cylindrical templates for printing on fabrics or fabric webs.
- the dye or the printing medium to be used for printing is arranged within the rotary cylinder and driven or pressed through the hole pattern, for example by means of a doctor blade, onto the material to be coated.
- this printing direction is caused by the movement generated by the doctor blade, the material being moved in steps along the flat printing stencil, the printing stencil being pressed against the material each time the web of material is at a standstill.
- a printing direction can thus be defined for the perforated pattern used, which results either from the direction of rotation of the printing cylinder or from the direction of movement of the squeegee in the case of flat printing stencils.
- a direction of the progressive printing by means of the hole pattern 1 is denoted by B.
- the rotation in the direction of rotation shown makes it possible, by using the perforations designated in the hole pattern 1 with the reference numbers 4 or 14, to produce extremely fine lines or in conjunction with perforations, designated 2 and 3 or 12 and 13, or parts of which create sharp pattern boundaries.
- the repeat perforation pattern or perforation unit A defined according to the invention comprising perforations 2, 3 and 4 or 12, 13 and 14, enables a much more precise alignment of the pattern perforations, compared to known pattern perforations, since at least one per repeated perforation unit during the engraving process there are at least three reference points. These three reference points can, as stated above, either be completely exposed through the color during the printing process or be partially covered. As a result, the printing of fine lines or pattern boundaries can be achieved with the greatest possible accuracy, since the respective free penetrable perforated area of each perforated unit can be varied during printing.
- Another advantage of the perforations according to the perforation pattern proposed according to the invention when printing in the direction C is the possibility of achieving so-called "halftone" effects, which is achieved in that some or all of the perforations are of one part partially covered by perforated units and that a color separation and a separate stencil are used.
- This benefit is further enhanced by printing reinforced by individual dots, if necessary with a partial covering of the respective perforations at precisely defined points, so that halftone effects can be produced without any problems by merging or overlapping different printing media of immediately adjacent ink dots.
- the hole pattern 1 shown in FIG. 1 is not limited to any thickness, fineness or type of manufacture of the template.
- the template can be selected differently for producing different results and effects of the printer product and depending on the respective printing technology or other applications (e.g. engraving).
- the perforations i.e. the perforations from screen template to screen template can be of different sizes, be it with an original screen template pattern for a photographic screen template, as an engraved depression or as a fully engraved or non-engraved screen template for rotary printing or planographic printing, in order to achieve the desired results
- the perforations i.e. the perforations from screen template to screen template can be of different sizes, be it with an original screen template pattern for a photographic screen template, as an engraved depression or as a fully engraved or non-engraved screen template for rotary printing or planographic printing, in order to achieve the desired results
- the perforations i.e. the perforations from screen template to screen template can be of different sizes, be it with an original screen template pattern for a photographic screen template, as an engraved depression or as a fully engraved or non-engraved screen template for rotary printing or planographic printing, in order to achieve the desired results
- the perforations i.e. the perforations from screen template to screen template can be of different sizes, be
- the perforated patterns are arranged on the screen printing cylinders in such a way that the main direction of the perforated pattern, indicated by arrow direction C in FIG. 1, is not at right angles to the cylinder. Linder axis runs, but at an angle to it, so that fine lines are printed as continuously as possible.
- This oblique-angled arrangement is referred to as a so-called "mesh-pitch angle" (pitch angle of the hole pattern). In known patterns from the prior art, this angle moves in a range of ⁇ 15 ° or 30 °. In the perforated pattern according to the invention, this angle is less than 5 °, preferably 0.9 °, which results in a technically much flawless pressure.
- This mesh-pitch angle also applies to screen printing stencils for planographic printing, the angle between the main direction of the hole pattern and the direction of movement of the doctor blade being defined as the mesh-pitch angle. If textile fabrics are printed, the weft threads can run parallel to the axis of rotation of the printing cylinder or to the direction of movement of the squeegee, and it is obvious that such an angle must also be present here for printing reasons. The same angle obviously also applies to the engraving of printing rollers using any technique, for example laser engraving.
- FIG. 2 shows an enlarged detail A from FIG. 1, representing a perforated unit consisting of perforations 12, 13 and 14.
- the color circular areas of the known subtractive color mixture are superimposed.
- O denotes the color orange, i.e. the mixed color of the basic tones yellow and red
- V the color violet as the mixed color of the basic tones red and blue
- G the color green as the mixed color of the basic tones blue and yellow
- B stands for black.
