Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work. - Thomas Edison
We are going crazy over here. We are trying to print a 3 colored print on our gauntlet.Print registered in 10 mins. Lines up straight on the plattens. Comes out of the dryer crooked.Print is realigned. Plattens are checked to make sure they are straight, tees are checked to make sure they are being loaded straight, and image is still coming out crooked.Any idea what i could be missing or overlooking?!
old press, same location it's been in for 6 months.one side of the image is slightly higher.light tack on the pallets, and they are being snapped off evenly to minimize twisting
Could be shirts with a 1/4 turn weave shrinking and pulling when they dry. Normally the dryer won't do that, but the shirts will twist after several washes. I have some with a side seam that comes almost to the middle of the front after a few dozen washes.
Jon nailed it. Tultex= sh!t. Another reason on the thinner shirts when you pull them on the pallet just the drag across the adhesive can distort the shirt enough so that the logo is off. Look at the grain of the fabric and see how it runs.
