Our Wax Special Screen series is developed for mills and printers that run wax rotary printing, wax-resist patterns or heavy, paste-like printing media. By balancing mesh, nickel thickness and open area, these screens provide:
•Sufficient open area for wax or thick pastes to pass through
•Enough mechanical strength to withstand repeated printing and cleaning
•A stable round body and accurate repeat for long production runs
From bold geometric wax prints to delicate linework with resist effects, wax special rotary nickel screens help you achieve clean outlines, controlled deposits and stable shade with fewer process interruptions.
During rotary wax printing, wax pastes or high-viscosity printing media can easily block a standard screen if the hole structure and open area are not optimized. Wax Special Screens address this by:
•Using mesh counts from 60 to 165 matched to different deposit weights and design styles
•Combining mesh with carefully selected thickness (120–180 μm) to keep the screen strong but not overly rigid
•Designing an open area range of 15–26% to support smooth wax flow while maintaining pattern sharpness
The result is a rotary nickel screen that can handle wax-like media more reliably, with reduced blocking and more predictable production behavior.
| Repeat (mm) | Length (mm) | Mesh | Thickness (μm) | Open Area (%) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 819 / 914 | 1410–3500 | 60 | 145 | 24–26 |
| 819 / 914 | 1410–3500 | 80 | 120 | 18–20 |
| 819 / 914 | 1410–3500 | 100 | 125 | 15–17 |
| 819 / 914 | 1410–3500 | 125 | 120–180 | 15–25 |
| 819 / 914 | 1410–3500 | 155 | 120–150 | 15–22 |
| 819 / 914 | 1410–3500 | 165 | 120–150 | 15–20 |
Reusability: All Wax Special Screens can typically be used repeatedly for 5–7 cycles, depending on handling, stripping and process conditions.
Wax Special Screens are designed with mesh and open area combinations that allow wax pastes and thicker printing media to pass through more smoothly. This helps reduce clogging, minimizes downtime for cleaning and supports more stable continuous printing.
The mesh range from 60, 80, 100, 125, 155 to 165 allows you to choose the right screen for each pattern:
•Lower mesh (60 / 80 / 100): heavier wax deposit, fuller coverage, strong resist effect
•Mid mesh (125): balanced deposit for many standard wax designs
•Higher mesh (155 / 165): finer lines, detailed motifs and more subtle effects
With nickel thickness between 120–180 μm, Wax Special Screens have enough strength and durability for high-tension, high-speed rotary printing. The screen body stays round and stable, supporting accurate registration and repeat throughout the production run.
Under proper use and with correct stripping/cleaning, each wax special rotary screen can be reused 5–7 times. This lowers the cost per meter of printed fabric and reduces overall consumable expenses in wax printing operations.
Standard 819 / 914 mm repeat and lengths from 1410–3500 mm make these screens compatible with most textile rotary screen printing machines used for wax printing and resist-style fabrics. This simplifies integration into existing lines.
Wax Special Screens are ideal for wax rotary printing, where hot wax or wax-like pastes are printed onto fabric to create resist effects or characteristic wax print styles. The optimized open area helps transfer wax reliably onto cotton and blended fabrics.
For mills producing imitation wax prints or resist-look patterns using thick mediums instead of traditional batik, Wax Special Screens provide better control over paste flow, enabling crisp outlines and repeatable effects.
Any rotary printing process using high-viscosity pastes, special effect coatings or heavy pigment deposits can benefit from wax special rotary nickel screens. The mesh and open area choices help manage deposit weight and print definition.
To achieve maximum lifetime (typically 5–7 use cycles per screen), we recommend:
•Using appropriate tension settings and avoiding excessive mechanical stress
•Following a consistent cleaning and stripping procedure after each production run
•Avoiding aggressive mechanical scraping that can damage the mesh
•Storing screens carefully to prevent dents, deformation or corrosion
Proper handling helps maintain the mesh integrity, open area and roundness, so each Wax Special Screen can deliver stable performance across multiple runs.
•Focused product design – Our Wax Special Screens are not generic rotary screens; they are developed specifically for wax printing and high-viscosity applications.
•Stable, repeatable quality – Controlled mesh, thickness and open area ensure consistent performance from trial runs to mass production.
•Flexible configuration – A broad mesh range and standard 819 / 914 mm repeat sizes make it easy to match your current designs and machines.
•Cost-effective solution – Reusability and robust construction help reduce total cost of ownership for wax printing lines.
•Global service capability – We work with textile printers worldwide and can support your wax rotary printing projects with technical suggestions on screen selection.
Q1. What is the difference between a Wax Special Screen and a standard rotary screen?
A Wax Special Screen is engineered for wax printing and high-viscosity media. Compared with standard rotary screens, it uses specific combinations of mesh, thickness and open area to support better wax flow, reduce blocking and maintain pattern sharpness in wax-style prints.
Q2. How do I choose the right mesh for my wax printing design?
Use lower mesh counts (60 / 80 / 100) when you need heavy wax deposits, strong resist effects or deep, solid coverage. Use medium mesh like 125 for general wax designs. For fine lines and more delicate motifs, higher mesh counts (155 / 165) provide lighter deposits and improved detail reproduction.
Q3. How many times can I reuse a Wax Special Screen?
When handled correctly and cleaned/stripped using appropriate procedures, each Wax Special Screen can typically be reused 5–7 times. Actual lifetime depends on your wax formulation, printing conditions, cleaning chemicals and mechanical handling.
Q4. Are these screens compatible with my existing rotary printing machine?
Yes. The Wax Special Screens are offered in standard 819 / 914 mm repeat and 1410–3500 mm length, which fit most textile rotary screen printing machines. By confirming your repeat, mesh and length requirements, we can recommend the best configuration for your line.
