In some embodiments, a screen printing plate 10 includes a metal mesh part 13 and a metal mask part 14 provided on one side of the metal mesh part 13 integrally with the metal mesh part 13. In addition, the metal mask part 14 has an opening part 14a, and when the dimension from the outer edge 14a2 of the opening part 14a to the metal mesh part 13 represents a fill depth, this fill depth is the largest in the part corresponding to the center area of the opening part 14a. The screen printing plate does not cause the actual printing thickness to vary easily, even when the target printing thickness is reduced.

A printing method that carries out printing using a mesh screen, which is a screen gauze including multiple holes, is provided. The printing method includes: a covering process of covering one surface of the mesh screen with a covering member; an entering process of entering the covering member to at least a middle of the hole from a side of the one surface with respect to the multiple holes of the mesh screen; a mask forming process of ejecting a mask forming liquid used to form a mask that covers one part of an other surface of the mesh screen from an ejection head, to form the mask; a peeling process of peeling the covering member from the mesh screen; and a print executing process of printing an image corresponding to a pattern of the mask on the medium using the mesh screen and the printing ink.

To provide a mesh member such that a static charge can be suppressed.

Provided is a mesh member including a mesh woven fabric and a coating layer that is formed on the surface of the mesh woven fabric and contains a carbon nanotube and/or graphene.

A printed wiring board has conductor patterns (12) having a thickness (t1) of 50 m or more on an insulating substrate (11). An insulating layer (5) is provided in regions (L) on the conductor patterns and on the insulating substrate in regions (S) between the conductor patterns. A thickness (t.sub.L) of the insulating layer on the conductor patterns is preferably 0.1-1 times the conductor thickness (t.sub.1). The insulating layer is formed on the conductor patterns and on the insulating substrate between the conductor patterns by printing a resin composition using screen printing and then curing the resin composition. The resin composition has a viscosity of 50-300 P at 25 C. and a thixotropic index of 1.1-3.5. A screen printing plate used for screen printing has a mesh thickness of 2.2 or more times a yarn diameter of yarns.

To provide a screen plate that can allow printing accuracy to be improved. A screen plate comprising a plate frame and a screen gauze formed of warp and weft fibers each made of a synthetic fiber, wherein the screen gauze is stretched on the plate frame under application of a predetermined tensile force, and the thickness of the screen gauze stretched on the plate frame is 88% or less based on the thickness of the screen gauze under application of no tensile force.

Disclosed is a precision cut printing screen in which the features of a printing pattern are defined on a sheet material by a plurality of apertures within a target printing boundary. Also disclosed is a method of making the printing screen.

A method of screen printing an image on a substrate, such as rotary screen printing, includes using a printing screen having a surface structure at its printing side and attached imaged lacquer layer having open areas defining the image to be printed, where the image includes pixel based design elements, the printing screen has a parallelogram pattern, preferably an orthogonal pattern, of screen openings and the open areas of the imaged lacquer layer representing the pixel based design elements are arranged in an orthogonal raster.

A metal wire includes tungsten or a tungsten alloy. The metal wire has a diameter of at most 13 ?m, a tensile strength of at least 4.8 GPa, and a natural hanging length per 1000 mm of at least 800 mm.

Disclosed herein are apparatuses for screen printing on a surface of a three-dimensional substrate comprising a substantially rigid, substantially planar frame having a perimeter defining a region within the perimeter having a given surface area; and a screen attached to the frame and extending across at least a portion of the surface area, wherein the screen comprises a first portion through which a liquid printing medium can pass onto a proximate three-dimensional substrate; and a second portion coated with an emulsion substantially preventing the liquid printing medium from passing through the second portion of the screen, wherein the screen has a fixed tension of less than about 20 N/cm. Methods and systems for screen printing on a surface of a three-dimensional substrate are also disclosed herein.
