A MacDermid Autotype product story
Edited by the Printingtalk editorial team Feb 20, 2009

CPS's Green Screen Chemicals System is helping Hungarian screen printer Cut Art Print and Dekor to increase the levels of productivity from its large-format screen-print systems.

In addition, it is claimed that the CPS screen preparation, cleaning and reclamation chemicals are enabling Cut Art Print and Dekor to improve print quality, resolution and consistency from its automated production equipment.

The Green Screen Chemicals System includes: Screen Wash V3, which has been developed for high-speed automatic cleaning lines; MF Screen Adhesive, designed to be fully resistant to washout; and Ultracoat CTS, which provides resolution with consistent washout.

Istvan Szocs, Cut Art Print and Dekor's managing director, said: 'In recent years, we have expanded rapidly into the large format arena, extending our original inkjet production facilities with a move to screen printing, using A00 roll and sheet-fed machines.

'We were also the first company in the region to introduce digital engraving and to use computer-to-screen technology.

'As a result, we have a large customer base and handle a wide and varied range of projects, with our biggest-ever installation being a 72m x 7m billboard for the Cora supermarket in Szeged, a major city in Southern Hungary,' he added.

Although the company's first printing systems were manually operated, they were supplemented at an early stage with automatic machines.

Today, the screen-printing process from coating and exposure to screen cleaning and stencil reclamation is fully automated, using the latest equipment from ESC in Germany, with the entire process housed in two areas of the printing laboratory.

Daniel Illmer, CPS sales executive, worked in cooperation with the company's local distributor in Hungary, Centrum Servis, to help Cut Art Print and Dekor gain the maximum benefit from the new chemistry.

Adras Sebok, managing director of Centrum Servis, said: 'Working with the team at Cut Art Print and Dekor, we have created a reliable and extremely effective screen production and reclamation system that runs at high speeds and produces consistent, high-quality results.

Szocs added: 'Combined, our automated production systems and the CPS chemistry have enabled us to improve productivity by more than 30 per cent, which enables us to respond faster and more efficiently to the needs of our customers and provides us with the flexibility we need to expand our business still further.

Based in Budapest, Cut Art Print and Dekor specialises in producing large poster and billboard advertisements and promotional materials.
