Screen Printing
Screen printing is a very versatile printing technique. The process can place
heavy deposits of ink on virtually any surface with few limitations on size and
shape of the surface being printed.
These thick deposits of ink provide superior color density, abrasion resistance,
and fade resistance. Screen printing is very effective for OEM labeling and
applications for difficult environments requiring superior performance.
Screen printing is also used to print both the circuitry and graphic overlays
for membrane switches. Printers use conductive inks to produce circuit traces
on thin films that form the core of these widely used switches.
Screen printing is relatively expensive to set up for shorter production runs.
Hot stamp printing may be a suitable alternative for many smaller quantity
requirements.
VisionMark is equipped with state-of-the-art screen printing equipment and
finishing capabilities. This investment is designed to produce close tolerance,
fine detail and consistent quality for demanding applications.

VisionMark has both UV and conventional solvent-based ink capabilities. We have
the ability to print tinted windows, textures, back lit windows, half tones and
other difficult to print features.
VisionMark is also able to use screen printing in conjunction with thermal
transfer printing and hot stamp printing for unique designs and constructions.
