- Description
- 6/1/2023: Received question from Industry. Q: Will this semi-automatic screen printer be used for apparels or products (i.e. bottles)? A: The primary use will be for screen printing directly on fabrics or polymer films. However, we are also looking into screen printing into other substrates for sensor development (for instance paper for paper-based sensors). 5/30/2023: Received question from Industry Q: Would a pneumatic component that requires an air compressor for the system�s operation be acceptable for this requirement?
