- a gauze of e.g. plastic material or steel is stretched in a steel or aluminium frame.
- Said gauze is the carrier of a stencil, which may have been provided in various ways.
- the stencil covers those parts of the gauze through which no printing ink must pass.
- the open parts in the template do allow the ink to pass therethrough, so that a print can be formed on the substrate.
- There are various kinds of printing ink for screen printing such as glass ink, paper/cardboard ink, ink for plastics and metal ink.

Abstract
Description
- The invention relates to a method for stretching, i.e. tensioning, a gauze. The invention in particular relates to a method for stretching a gauze for use in screen printing, wherein the gauze comprises a first pair and a second pair of opposed sides, which define an inner area of the gauze. The invention also relates to a stretching device for stretching a gauze for screen printing.
- In screen printing, a gauze of e.g. plastic material or steel is stretched in a steel or aluminium frame. Said gauze is the carrier of a stencil, which may have been provided in various ways. The stencil covers those parts of the gauze through which no printing ink must pass. The open parts in the template do allow the ink to pass therethrough, so that a print can be formed on the substrate. There are various kinds of printing ink for screen printing, such as glass ink, paper/cardboard ink, ink for plastics and metal ink. The ink is spread over the gauze with a first squeegee, as a result of which the meshes of the gauze are filled. Then the ink is pressed onto the substrate by means of a pressure squeegee.
- To obtain a good print, it is important that the gauze be stretched in a suitable manner. Fig. 1 schematically shows a stretching table 100 comprising a
frame 101 in which agauze 110 is stretched. Thegauze 110 comprises a first pair ofopposed sides 112, which define aninner area 113. The central printing area is indicated at 114. Thegauze 110 is fixed inlateral clamps 102, which are disposed near thesides gauze 110. Then thegauze 110 is tensioned from thelateral clamps 102 by applying a tension force T in directions away from thegauze 110 as indicated by the arrows. - It has been observed that when such a method for stretching the gauze is used, the orientation of the threads 115 (the warp threads and the weft threads; indicated by the dotted lines) of the
gauze 110 increasingly deviates from a right-angled orientation towards the outer side. Such an orientation is disadvantageous for the screen printing process. - It is an object of the invention to provide an improved method and stretching device for stretching a gauze.
- This object is accomplished by providing a method for stretching a gauze for use in screen printing, wherein the gauze comprises a first pair and a second pair of opposed sides, which sides define an inner area of the gauze, wherein said first pair and said second pair of sides of the gauze are stretched before the inner area is tensioned. Preferably, the method comprises the steps of:
- a) stretching the first pair of sides of the gauze in a first direction substantially parallel to the sides of said first pair;
- b) stretching the second thereof sides of the gauze in a second direction substantially parallel to the sides of said second pair; and
- c) stretching the inner area of the gauze following steps a) and b) from the sides of the first pair and the second pair in the second direction and the first direction, respectively.
- The above object is also accomplished by providing a stretching device adapted for stretching a gauze for use in screen printing, wherein the gauze comprises a first pair and a second pair of opposed sides, which sides define an inner area of the gauze, which stretching device comprises stretching means for stretching the first pair and the second pair of sides of the gauze before the inner area is tensioned. The stretching device preferably comprises:
- a) first stretching means for stretching the first pair of sides of the gauze in a direction substantially parallel to the sides of the first pair;
- b) second stretching means for stretching the second pair of sides of the goals in a second direction substantially parallel to the sides of the second pair; and
- c) third stretching means for stretching the inner area of the gauze from the sides of the first pair and the second pair in the second direction and the first direction, respectively,
- The non-straight orientation of the threads near the corners of the gauze (which orientation also affects the inner area of the gauze) obtained with the conventional stretching device is caused by the fact that the distance between the
clamps 102 is greatest near the corners of the gauze, so that the highest tension is reached at these locations. It has become apparent that when the sides of the gauze are first tensioned before the inner area of the gauze is tensioned, the wall and weft threads will be oriented at right angles relative to each other over substantially the entire inner area in the tensioned condition of the gauze. This effect can be ascribed to the fact that space for stretching the inner area of the gauze is created near the corners of the gauze by first stretching the first and second sides at the corners of the gauze. The present method makes it possible to stretch or tension the gauze from the centre. - In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the method comprises the steps of stretching the first pair of sides and the second pair of sides with different tension forces, and the stretching device is adapted for stretching the sides of the first pair and the second pair with different tension forces. Such an embodiment makes it possible to compensate at least in part for differences between rolls of gauze as regards the number of warp threads and weft threads.
- Further advantageous embodiments are defined in the subclaims and will be discussed in detail in the description of the figures. It will be apparent that the invention is by no means limited to such preferred embodiments.
- In the Figures:
- Fig. 1 shows a prior art stretching device for stretching a gauze for use in screen printing;
- Figs. 2A and 2B show a stretching device for stretching a gauze for use in screen printing according to a first embodiment of the invention during a first phase, a second phase and a third phase of the method; and
- Fig. 3 shows a stretching device for stretching a gauze for use in screen printing according to a second embodiment of the invention.
- Figs. 2A and 2B show a
stretching device 1 comprising a frame 2 for stretching agauze 10. Thegauze 10 comprises a first pair ofopposed sides 11 and a second pair ofopposed sides 12, which define aninner area 13 of thegauze 10. Typically thegauze 10 is rectangular in shape. The dimension of thegauze 10 is 100 cm by 100 cm, for example. - The
stretching device 1 comprisescorner clamps gauze 10, which corners are defined by the point of intersection of aside 11 of the first pair and aside 12 of the second pair. Thecorner clamps 3 can be moved in a first direction I for stretching thesides 11. Thecorner clamps 4 can be moved in a second direction II for stretching thesides 12 of thegauze 10. Thecorner clamps stretching device 1 furthermore compriseslateral clamps 5 provided near thesides gauze 10. - It is noted that in addition to or instead of making use of
movable corner clamps sides gauze 10 are possible, such as moving only a part or means of thecorner clamps gauze 10 for stretching thesides inner area 13 of thegauze 10. The dimensions of the clamping element, at least the part thereof that clamps down thegauze 10, are preferably smaller than or equal to the width of the elements that form the frame 2. Another possibility is shown in Fig. 3, which will be discussed in more detail below. - In a method according to an embodiment of the invention as shown in Figs. 2A and 2B the
gauze 10 is placed in thecorner clamps gauze 10 is not clamped down at thelateral clamps 5 yet so as to make it possible to realise an optimum stretching of thesides corner clamps sides sides sides frame 10. - The stretching of the
sides clamps corner clamps sides gauze 10 to be stretched. - During a third phase, schematically indicated by the outer ring of
clamps sides gauze 10 are subsequently placed or clamped in the lateral clamps 5 at thesides inner area 13 of the gauze is tensioned by stretching the gauze by means of the corner clamps 3, 4 and the lateral clamps 5 (see the arrows). Consequently, the warp and weft threads of thegauze 10 are oriented substantially at right angles relative to each other over a larger area of the gauze end than is the case with the conventional stretching method as shown in Fig. 1. - The stretching of the gauze is preferably carried out in such a manner that a stretch percentage in the range of 2-10% of the original thread length, e.g. 8%, is obtained. The stretch percentage depends on factors such as the number of threads per unit length, the thickness of the threads and the kind of gauze. In the case of a gauze having threads of plastic material, the corner clamps 3, 4 are to that end moved in the direction I and II, respectively, during the second phase of the stretching process, in such a manner that the
sides respective corner clamp gauze 10. The tension determines the number of threads per unit length. For agauze 10 comprising threads of plastic material with a diameter of 31 µm, which counts 165 threads per cm in untensioned condition, a tension of 22 Newton will result in about 152 threads per cm in the tensioned condition of thegauze 10. According to the invention, tensioning can be carried out according to the stretch percentage to be obtained within a tolerance of three threads per cm. - The method according to the invention has a large number of advantages. The substantially right-angled orientation of the warp and weft threads of the
gauze 10 renders the gauze suitable for screen printing without the Moiré effect described in the non-prepublishedEuropean patent application EP 05101383 gauze 10 over substantially the entireinner area 13. Consequently, the ink volume per mesh is substantially uniform over theinner area 13, making it possible to realise a reduced ink consumption. Furthermore it is possible to set up a greater tension in the gauze, which has a positive effect as regards the resolution of the screen printed image. - A very advantageous embodiment concerns the possibility to compensate for deviations in the
gauze 10. To that end it is possible to use a higher tension at thesides 11 than at thesides 12, which can be done by stretching said sides separately. Consequently, a gauze which has e.g. 167 warp threads per cm and 163 weft threads per cm in unstretched condition can have substantially the same number of warp and weft threads in stretched condition. A stretch percentage of 9.2% is selected for the warp threads, for example, whilst a stretch percentage of 7% is selected for the weft threads, so that the number of threads will be 152 in both directions in the stretched condition. - It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that different methods may be used for stretching the
gauze 10 on the one hand and thesides device 20 for thegauze 10, which stretchingdevice 20 is provided with anelement 21 that is flexible in a direction parallel to thesides gauze 10 as shown in Fig. 3. Theflexible element 21 is a rubber strip, for example, with clamps (not shown) provided thereon. When such astretching device 20 is used, thesides gauze 10 can be completely fixed to theelements 21 during the first and the second phase and be tensioned in the directions I, II. The elements can then move in the directions II and I, respectively, during the third phase for stretching theinner area 13 of thegauze 10.
