Tailored Customization Options for Printing Knitted Wear
Advanced Water-Based Ink Printing
Achieve a soft, durable print with our water-based ink options. These inks penetrate the fabric, creating a dyeing effect that maintains the integrity and elongation of rib-knit fabrics, ensuring a smooth, high-quality finish.
Precision with High-Tension Screens
Utilize high-tension screens to control ink-film thickness on rib-knit fabrics. This technique ensures even ink distribution, reducing cracking and enhancing the longevity of your prints, perfect for maintaining the quality of intricate designs.
Optimal Squeegee Techniques
Our expert squeegee techniques, using 70/90/70 triple-durometer blades, ensure uniform ink application. This method balances flexibility and rigidity, allowing for detailed and consistent prints on both 2x1 and 1x1 rib-knit fabrics.
Efficient Hot-Air Gas Drying
Ensure complete curing of water-based inks with our high-velocity, hot-air gas dryers. This process effectively removes all water from the ink film, guaranteeing a durable and long-lasting print that withstands wear and tear.

Frequently Asked Questions about Printing Knitted Wear
Water-based inks offer a soft hand feel and penetrate the fabric, creating a dyeing effect that accommodates fabric elongation. They are also eco-friendly compared to plastisol inks. For best results, use a water-resistant photo emulsion and high-tension screens to control ink flow and penetration.
To ensure proper curing, use a high-velocity, hot-air gas dryer. It is crucial to drive all water from the ink film. This ensures the ink sets properly and maintains durability. Pre-production testing can help fine-tune your process for consistent results.
A 70/90/70 triple-durometer blade is ideal. The 70-durometer edge conforms to the mesh surface, while the rigid 90-durometer center keeps the blade on its edge, preventing it from rolling over. This setup helps achieve a uniform ink film on uneven rib-knit surfaces.
Ensure compatibility with reactive cotton dyes, use a water-resistant photo emulsion, and high-tension screens. Set screens to a low off-contact and use a 70/90/70 squeegee blade. Pre-production testing is essential to check for uniform color discharge and performance.
Use high-tension screens and minimize off-contact. Employ a higher durometer squeegee blade to compress the fabric uniformly. Opt for high-elongation plastisol inks, which can withstand the fabric's stretch characteristics. Test for proper curing and elongation to ensure durability.
Use finer mesh counts in conjunction with high-tension screens to control and minimize ink-film thickness. For dark fabrics requiring an underbase, use a 156-180 mesh count. For overprinting or wet-on-wet printing, a 230-305 mesh count is recommended.
1x1 rib-knit fabrics have similar stretch characteristics to 2x1 ribs but offer a smoother printing surface. Use traditional printing parameters while accounting for lateral elongation. Maintain a thin ink film and high-elongation characteristics for a soft hand feel and durability.
