Definition and Function

Transfer the ink onto the substrate through a screen.
Scrape off excess ink from the screen.
Maintain contact between the screen and the substrate.
Adapt to substrates of different shapes.

Materials and Characteristics

The common screen printing scraper is made of polyurethane rubber, which has the following characteristics:
Solvent resistance Able to resist the erosion of various chemical solvents.
Wear resistance Long service life, suitable for high-precision printing.
Hardness range The hardness is usually between 55-90 Shore A, divided into three types: soft, medium, and hard.
Elasticity Good resilience ensures even distribution of ink during the printing process.

Selection and application of scraper

Choosing a suitable scraper requires consideration of the following factors:
Hardness Scrapers with high hardness are suitable for high tension wire mesh, while scrapers with low hardness are suitable for low tension wire mesh.
Ink performance Select the length, thickness, and hardness of the scraper based on the viscosity, fineness, and hardness of the ink.
The performance of the substrate Hard or uneven substrates are suitable for using softer scrapers.
Printing requirements When a large amount of ink needs to be transferred to the substrate, a softer scraper should be used.
Printing pressure When the pressure is high, it is not suitable to use a scraper that is too soft.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the primary functions of a screen printing scraper?

The main functions include transferring ink onto the substrate through a screen, scraping off excess ink, maintaining contact between the screen and substrate, and adapting to various substrate shapes.

What materials are typically used for screen printing scrapers?

Common screen printing scrapers are made of polyurethane rubber, which provides excellent chemical solvent resistance, wear resistance, and high elasticity.

How do I choose the correct scraper hardness?

Scrapers with high hardness are suitable for high tension wire mesh, while softer scrapers are better for low tension wire mesh, hard or uneven substrates, and applications requiring a large volume of ink transfer.

What are the standard sizes available for screen printing scrapers?

Common scraper lengths include 1000mm, 2000mm, and 3000mm. The width and thickness can be custom-selected based on your specific printing machine and requirements.

How often should a screen printing scraper be maintained?

You should regularly check the sharpness and straightness of the blade before and after printing runs. If the blade becomes dull or uneven, it must be polished or replaced immediately to ensure printing quality.
