ABSTRACT:
A stencil manufacturing and printing process reduces printed image distortion by matching screen deflection in the photostencil preparation phase with stencil deflection in the printing phase. The usual squeegee is replaced by atmospheric pressure and screen/stencil deflection is induced by producing a vacuum through a specially constructed air distribution frame. Compressed air can be introduced through the same frame to rapidly release the stencil from the substrate when the printing is completed. A control unit facilitates operator control of the printing process.
