Textile Printing Properties- WET PRINTING TECHNIQUES ---TIANYU Rotary Screen Printing Solutions
Edit time: 2009-11-02
WET PRINTING TECHNIQUES The modern textile-printing techniques of flat-bed screen, rotary screen, and engraved copper roller are referred to as wet printing techniques. This is because each technique applies a print paste, which is a thickened dye mixture, to the fabric in the printing process. Before covering the specifics of each printing method, the important processes common to all three techniques will be covered.
For wet printing processes, once the fabric has been prepared and delivered to the printing plant, the basic steps in the printing process are as follows:
1. Preparation of the print paste.
2. Printing the fabric.
3. Drying the printed fabric.
4. Fixation of the printed dye or pigment.
5. Afterwashing.
It should be noted that not all printed fabrics are afterwashed. In applications where pigments are printed on finished fabric, afterwashing of the print is not normally performed.
