Printing materials squeegee blades

Squeegee Pressure, Speed and Downstop Level. Blade and material determine squeegee pressure. For urethane or polyethylene blades, starting pressure should be around 1.6 to 3.01 Ib./in. of squeegee. For metal blades, starting pressure should be 1 Ib./in. of squeegee. Based on the quality of the print, pressure should be adjusted to give complete aperture fills and clean stencil wipes.
