Rotary Screen Printing Frequently Asked Questions
Short answers to the questions buyers ask most often about Rotary Screen Printing.
What does it mean?
continuous rotary screen deposit. Working figures for Rotary Screen Printing normally sit around high yardage runs in mainstream production. Note rotary printing machine on the tech pack so nobody tests against an older revision.
What value should be specified?
Start from high yardage runs and adjust for the end use of the garment. Record elastane content alongside Rotary Screen Printing, because blends shift the measured value. A result outside high yardage runs usually points to process drift rather than to the fibre itself.

How is it tested?
rotary printing machine. Keeping reference values for Rotary Screen Printing lets suppliers quote without extra sampling rounds. Ask for conditioning details together with rotary printing machine, since both affect the reading.
Why does it change between lots?
Process variables such as finishing temperature and elastane batch cause the normal spread of results. Working figures for Rotary Screen Printing normally sit around high yardage runs in mainstream production. Note rotary printing machine on the tech pack so nobody tests against an older revision.
Can results be compared across suppliers?
Only when the same standard revision and conditioning are used; otherwise measurements are not equivalent. Record elastane content alongside Rotary Screen Printing, because blends shift the measured value. A result outside high yardage runs usually points to process drift rather than to the fibre itself.
