Abstract

During silk-screen printing, the stencil (3) is stretched as a result of the pressure exerted by the squeeges (6) This results in a distorted pattern on the material (4) to be printed. To eliminate this error, the design (7') in the stencil (3) is predistorted in such a way that a distortion-free printed pattern (8') is obtained.
