What Are the Advantages and Disadvantages of Tapes?- Ningbo Hongyan Packing Material Co.,Ltd

Screen printing with Tapes has become extremely popular, especially with new uses being discovered for the product every day. Printing on Tapes offers an infinite variety of applications, from personalized labels to large-scale corporate images. But did you know that the printing process is not only limited to large-scale advertising? In fact, there are a number of different ways that taping can be used in today's world. With this guide, we'll take a look at four different uses for screen-printing tape:

What are Masking Tapes? Masking tapes are a unique type of printing tape, which makes use of a special rubber-based tape to form letters, numbers, shapes and patterns. The application of these special "masking tapes" is based on their edge seal ability. They offer great adhesive power and are often used in conjunction with other related materials.

What are Packaging Tapes? Packaging tapes are used to seal and label packages to protect them during transport and delivery. The adhesive used on these types of packaging tapes has the added benefit of being impermeable, meaning that it is able to prevent the growth of bacteria and mold within the package. They are available in a wide range of sizes and adhesive strengths, which is useful when trying to ensure the protection of expensive items. This is particularly important for food and cosmetic products, which can be subject to bacterial contamination.

What is Paper Tape Adhesive? Most people are aware of the traditional sticky paper tape, which is widely used for the purpose of binding documents and wrapping presents. Paper tape has several advantages over other types of adhesive, which makes it highly popular for packaging and moving items. The fact that it is sticky means that it can be easily removed without damage to the item being protected and can be reused over again.

What is Screen Printing Tapes? Screen-printing or thermal transfer printing involves transferring an image onto a surface by using heat. It is an excellent option for printing short runs or large volumes and can even offer a quick solution to the need for temporary masks in high volume production processes. Unlike many other forms of packaging, screen-printing can also be applied to non-porous surfaces, although some form of protection must be applied to prevent damage to the graphic material. This form of packaging is also commonly found in retail environments, particularly in check-out counters. It can be used to create detailed, single colour logos, screens, images and design elements, or can be used to create a variety of short runs, usually representing a particular product line or theme.

What is Inkjet and Laser Toner Products? These are similar to screen-printing and adhesive tapes and are often included in the packaging of medical samples and related materials. Both types of packaging tapes are popular for their resistance to abrasion and moisture. Inkjet products are available in rolls or sheets, while laser printers are capable of delivering higher-quality images than that possible with inkjet paper. The ink from laser printers can be easily cleaned and replenished, making it a good choice for long-term or repeated use.

What is Roll-Off Tapes? These types of printing tapes are used when high-volume printing is required. They are easy to use, inexpensive, and can be rolled or folded to fit the exact size of a substrate or other packaging media. Roll-off tapes are commonly used for packaging parts, such as valves, that cannot be suitable for use with adhesives. As the tape removes excess ink, it leaves a clean, non-abrasive surface, which means that parts can be reused and that the process is safer for people and products.

What are Pallet Tape and Screen Printing Tapes? The main differences between these types of packaging media include their adherence to industry standards and their ability to clean removal without damaging the product. In addition to using roll-ons and rolls, pallets also provide an effective alternative to paper tape when clean removal is needed. However, because they are unable to adhere to thin materials like fine film, they cannot be used for high-volume or time-sensitive applications, such as screen printing, which requires the application of a clear, thick coating.
