M&R Stryker Automatic Screen Printing Press

Description

Description

M&R Stryker Automatic Screen Printing Press M&R’s Stryker oval-shaped automatic screen printing press begins with a 10-station base module. That base module can be expanded in 6-station increments to create 16, 22, 28, 34, 40, 46, and 52-station configurations.

Other than the end stations, there are no restrictions on printhead placement. Because all other stations can support printheads—and any station can be left open—Stryker’s layout can be tailored to almost any production requirement. Since Stryker’s oval shape takes up less floor space than comparable carousel automatic screen printing presses, it makes more efficient use of available production area. It also allows Stryker to fit into spots no carousel press could. Stryker has a maximum standard image area of 60 x 84 cm (24” x 33”), but can print images as large as 100 x 84 cm (39” x 33”) in alternating print heads, making it ideal for cut-pieces and all-over garments.

Its large color touchscreen control panel with icon-based labeling can display information and commands in multiple languages, and it features self-diagnostics and a production speed monitor to ensure more accurate job costing. The control panel sits on a caster-mounted pedestal, giving operators the ability to easily change position. Stryker has multiple print-stroke capability and an independent print-start/print-finish setting that automatically activates and stops printheads at the beginning and end of production runs.

Features
