PU Squeegee

A squeegee is used in screen printing to force ink through the printing screen and onto the substrate. The configuration of the squeegee handle is a matter of printer comfort and has little direct bearing on the printing impression, but the shape of the blade is a factor that affects the thickness of the ink deposited and thr sharpness of the printed image. The squeegee profile is a cross-sectional representation of the squeegee blade, and is used to gauge blade shape. The most common shape for most general purposes is square, and is used primarily for printing on flat substrates with standard poster inks. A flat-point, double-bevel shape (essentially a cut-off triangle) is used for printing on uneven surfaces
