Also, if you push too hard you can get the same result.I tried to show my brother how to push a squeegee (6'4" and 300 pounds) and he got the same result. I was afraid that he is going to break my pallet arms.Off course, I have told him that he does not need to push hard (I can not imagine what would happen if I did not).
anyone mention adhesive yet? could also play a roll.
also when your put too much softhand in the ink to make it soft in the winter monthscan cause this problem
Sometimes a flood stroke (bad squeeze angles, etc.) can cause the ink to ooze from the other side of shirt side of stencil. Does the problem go away after wiping the screen?
Something like this happens to me when I'm flying through an order too fast, my screen will come down and instead of coming down between the the 2 nylon bolts (not sure how an antec works) I'll bring the head down and lay it on top of one of the nylon regi bolts and I'll make the print. This is on my RJennings press.
Well, I did another set of these shirts (youth and toddler)... at first I had problems and I knew I would. THAT pallet arm (not the same one) isn't very tight on the bearing gate. Not sure how I can adjust that. Might just see if there is some fudge room on tightening those bearing bolts. I printed essentially one shirt and knew I had to do something. So I put some aluminum tape on the flange that goes in that gate and that tightened things up well and I never had an issue on the entire run 60 shirts. So I'm guessing I'm getting a little wiggle on the other arms too.Not sure what I should do about that as there are no adjustments. Antec Legend. Guess I'll have to give those guys a call once I really get setup and have all my arms on and know what is what.
No, not the arm itself but the flange or tang? that drops into the bearings. There is space in between the bearings and the metal tang (is that even right?) that slides between them. Granted not much, but as we know it doesn't take much down there to produce too much further down the arm.
