A screen printer’s time is money. Every process needs to be efficient and productive to get the best ROI. Marking lines on each pallet with a T-square and sharpie takes time and is not cost-effective. A laser guiding system simplifies this process and saves time.

Screen printers should consider getting a laser guiding system for their screen printing machine when they are looking to improve their workflow and accuracy and save time on the marking and setup process. If a screen printer is facing challenges with manual marking, such as inconsistency in registration or prolonged preparation time, then a laser guiding system could be a valuable investment to streamline their process.

A laser guiding system offers several benefits for screen printers, including:

  1. Streamlined setup — simplifies the marking process and saves time.
  2. Reduced misprints — the laser system helps maintain registration consistency and reduces mistakes.
  3. Faster preparation time — quickens the marking process compared to manual methods.
  4. Improved accuracy — helps to produce straight and consistent prints.

Additionally, if the screen printer is growing their business and handling larger and more complex printing jobs, a laser guiding system can help them keep up with the increased demand while maintaining quality and consistency.
