direct print onto cups or dye sublimation

[Ian M]

Are we just talking spot colour screen prints or full colour. Direct rotary printers are common but never seen a full colour option. Did see an incredible auto screenprint machine from Scandinavia a while back. Only 60k.

Andrew, was it a Svecia? If it was I was lucky enough to work on them nearly 40 years ago. They were considered the Rolls-Royce of screen printing machine because of their quality & price. Before on was fitted a man from Svecia would come & survey where the machine was to be fitted. The floor had to be perfectly flat first long before the machine arrived. The full machine would arrive one day & you had to hire a very large crane to unload it. The next day their engineers would arrive & fit the machine & they wouldn't leave till it was working perfectly. It all was just pure quality all the way & well worth the prices they charged. I worked on a Svecia cylinder press at one company & that machine was just amazing how fast it could print. It not only printed it dried the prints through a row of driers & it would automatically stack the prints on a pallet at the end of the machine. I forgot to mention it also had auto feed too.
