This automatic screen printing machine is designed specifically for printing graduations, brand logos, and specifications onto the surfaces of pipettes (0.1mL–50mL, glass or plastic). It automates the entire process—including feeding, positioning, screen printing, UV curing, and unloading—ensuring precise print placement and uniform, crisp lines to meet the rigorous marking accuracy standards required for laboratory consumables.
The equipment automatically feeds pipettes via a vibratory bowl or an integrated feeder. A synchronous rotary table then guides them through sequential stages—plasma surface treatment (optional), precision screen printing, instant UV curing, and sorting of qualified products—without requiring manual intervention. A single operator can oversee multiple production lines, significantly reducing staffing requirements and labor intensity.
Built with a high-rigidity cast frame and an independent servo-drive system, the machine utilizes anti-roll V-shaped positioning fixtures. This ensures a repeat positioning accuracy of ±0.05mm at the printing station, preventing slender pipettes from wobbling or getting scratched. Parameters such as squeegee pressure, stroke, and screen-to-substrate gap are digitally adjustable, ensuring a uniform ink layer without broken lines. Key seals and the squeegee mechanism feature wear-resistant treatments, enabling stable 24/7 operation with a defect rate below 0.3%, effectively eliminating issues like pattern misalignment, blurring, or missed prints.
Equipped with an industrial-grade PLC and touchscreen, the system stores screen printing parameters (squeegee pressure, printing speed, UV power, curing time) for hundreds of variations in tube diameter, length, and print patterns, allowing for one-touch product changeovers. The machine automatically adjusts fixture width, squeegee position, and UV power. It also features material-shortage detection, electrostatic dust removal, and ink level monitoring; automatic shutdowns with audio-visual alarms occur in the event of anomalies, ensuring continuous and controllable production.
Printing speeds range from 60 to 100 units per minute (depending on tube diameter and pattern complexity), representing a 6- to 8-fold increase in efficiency compared to manual screen or pad printing. An integrated UV cold-light curing system ensures instant drying after printing—eliminating the need for air-drying—and allows for direct integration with packaging or leak-testing processes. A single unit can easily exceed a daily output of 80,000 pipettes, optimizing both floor space and time costs.
Centered on precision positioning and anchored by reliable screen-printing technology, this automatic screen-printing machine for pipettes ensures that the graduations on every slender tube serve as a visual guarantee of accurate measurement. Choose this machine to ensure your pipettes excel in every detail—from appearance to quality.
