After that, for pressing the ink through the area a squeegee is made use of. The covered location avoids the ink from travelling through, yet the exposed location allows the ink to be pressed on the product. Then, for making certain that the material dries, the material is passed through the conveyor belt on a heat tunnel. When this drying procedure of appropriately done, the content will remain on the material even when it is roughly dealt with. If more shades are to be produced on the final design, the procedure is repeated with various screens under this method. This means that if a layout requires 4 various colors, four differed screens are used. In general, the products are positioned on the rotary press that permit the different shades marked to be lined up appropriately. Some machines utilized for screen printing are completely automated in nature.
