Onsite One day tune up - Includes travel expenses within 150 miles of Atlanta

We will teach you how to measure the major variables that are critical in screen printing.

(In the 3-day onsite, in addition to measuring the variables, we teach you how to control them, how they impact on press, minimizing downtime and increasing productivity by streamlining procedures and linear quality control in each dept. In addition to covering the theoretical and technical aspects of screen printing covered in our 52 page guide to automatic screen printing.)

Looking for a cost-effective way to evaluate and fine tune your procedures from production loops to quality control standards? Without spending $8k on Quality control tools?

Price includes travel expenses within 150 miles from Atlanta Georgia, and additional miles are flat rate charges and includes all expenses.

The instructor is a 32-year veteran of screenprinting with over 1,000 Five star reviews and extensive experience in graphic and textile screenprinting consultation and training in a classroom setting and onsite at customer shops.

As a member of Mensa, he is a firm believer in Einstein's philosophy "If you can't explain it to a six-year-old, then you don't fully understand it yourself"

So, no worries that subject matter will be too complex or convoluted to understand. Yes, even advanced screenprinting where physics plays a heavy role, can still be made easily understood by using real-world examples relating to food, relationships and even the occasional adult humor to convey principles and variables in an easily digestible and relatable fashion. Laughing while Learning is our goal.

Would a tune-up help me?

Do you think it takes too long to setup jobs on press?

Does your press seem to be stopping to correct problems, pinholes, build up, floating registration, and blurry prints?
