On-Site Installation And Setup Across South Africa
We install cylindrical screen-printing machines for workshops in Johannesburg, Pretoria, Midrand, Durban, Cape Town and nearby towns. Our team checks the floor space, power supply, compressed air requirements and loading access before the machine arrives, so the job starts properly and does not drag on for days.
Site setup also includes practical advice on cable routing, operator flow and where to keep screens, inks and cleaning materials. If your premises run on backup power or face load-shedding, we will help you plan around it and keep production moving.
- Machine positioning and levelling
- Power and air checks
- Production layout advice
- Initial running tests and handover
Operator Training That Fits Real Production
Training is done on your floor with your own product sizes, not only in theory. Farieda Jacobs works with operators and supervisors on setup, screen alignment, squeegee pressure, curing, colour matching and daily cleaning routines, so the team can handle real orders after handover.
We also cover common mistakes that affect print quality, such as poor registration, uneven ink laydown and inconsistent drying. For new teams, a short refresher can save a lot of scrap and wasted printng time.
- Basic machine operation
- Print registration and colour setup
- Daily checks and cleaning
- Safe handling of screens and ink
Screens, Reclaiming And Fast Screen Making
Good screen work is the difference between a clean, repeatable print and constant corrections. We assist with screen making for bottles, cups and tubes, plus reclaiming when old artwork needs to come off and the screen must be prepared again.
For high-volume clients, we recommend keeping spare screens on hand for popular jobs and repeat runs. That helps when orders come in from retailers, promotion companies or packaging lines and deadlines are tight.
- New screen preparation
- Reclaiming and cleaning
- Screen inspection before production
- Advice on screen life and storage
Repairs And Preventive Maintenance
Breakdowns cost money, especially when a customer is waiting for branded stock. Sibusiso Nene coordinates breakdown repairs and maintenance visits, while Anele Dlamini handles installation and technical support on site when needed.
We work on keeping the machine reliable before problems grow. That means checking belts, bearings, clamps, sensors and alignment points, plus replacing worn parts before they fail. Coastal humidity in Durban or Cape Town can affect storage and components, so we also advise on keeping machines and screens dry.
- Fault finding and repair work
- Preventive maintenance schedules
- Wear part checks and replacements
- Storage advice for coastal and inland sites
Spares Supply And Colour Setup Help
When a job changes from one bottle size to another, or from a white container to a dark one, colour setup matters. Johan van der Merwe supports clients with practical setup guidance, ink handling and print adjustments to help get the right finish first time.
We also keep key spares moving for clients who cannot afford long stoppages. If a small part goes missing or wears out, we help identify it quickly and get the machine back into use. That kind of support is useful for busy plants in Aeroton, Johannesburg South and Midrand where every shift counts.
