5 How to chose a squeegee

60,65 SH squeegees are very soft; they are usually used to print on ceramic and with glitter inks.
70,75 SH squeegees are recommended for printing on glass and on garments.
80,85 SH squeegees are used to print with high-speed automatic machines, to print on CDs, credit cards, electronic circuits, small objects, where high precision is required.
SURFACE: if the item you have to print has an rough, non-planar surface, the most suitable squeegee durometer is between 60 and 70 sh. If the surface is smooth, a harder durometer squeegee, between 80 and 90, should be used.
MESH: if a high mesh count (mesh very thin!) is being used, you need a harder squeegee (80 or 90 sh); if you are printing with glitter ink (which has large flakes of shiny, plastic material that have to pass through the mesh) you should use a softer squeegee.

6 Maintenance 

Achieving the best screen printing performance and productivity is greatly dependent on the selection of the correct  squeegee for the application and proper squeegee maintenance. When printing, monitor production time and rotate squeegees frequently. (The necessary rotation frequency is dependent on the ink / solvent system involved in the application) By doing so, you will achieve a more uniform print quality and increase the life of your squeegees. A squeegee should always be wiped clean and dry following removal from the press and stored in a dry environment at room temperature. The blade should be allowed to recover from the ink and solvent attack and rest for a period of 24 hours. It can then be placed back into production, or if necessary re-sharpened and placed back into production. 

7 Storage 

Polyurethane Squeegees should always be stored flat in a dry (50% Relative Humidity) environment at room temperature. (approximately 60-70 degrees F) Storage at temperatures below 60 degrees F may show an increase in durometer. This increase has no influence on the physical properties or the performance of the polyurethane. Under these storage conditions, the shelf life of the squeegee is approximately one year. Older squeegees often show increased printing performance.

9 Packaging and labeling 

We usually use small boxes (h5x30x30 cm) containing 10 squeegees (h 60x30 x30cm )max.
We can also use single-squeegee box – it protects the squeegees form edge damaging, dust and light.
We can label each squeegee with the data you need (batch, dimensions, hardness, profile, brand name...).
It is highly recommended to store squeegees in a dry, room-temperature (between 15°C and 21°C) environment, far from light sources. We advise to keep the squeegee laid down on a flat surface for 24 h before using it.
