M&R presents Quick Tips with Casey Mann. Casey demonstrates how to setup the Sportsman using screens previously exposed in part 2: Exposing Film using the Tri-Loc System . Stay tuned for more M&R Quick Tips coming soon!
M&R was the best company I have ever worked for , Rich Hoffman , Gary Granon , Bob Greenleaf , and Mike Sanera are awesome people . And lets not forget Kamil from Parts Dept... BEST JOB I EVER HAD !!!!!
Great tip! I am surprised that there are people who say they can do faster setups. Perhaps there is that one guy in your shop (maybe), but you don't have a full staff of people that "can" set it up faster...and all operators needs to use it, so put it into action for everyone. The most common negative thing you hear is that 1 out of 5-10 colors were not dead on so they stopped using it. That might be, but more likely due to some other human error and not an issue with Tri-Loc. And out of the ones that are "not dead on", it's only a micro change to get it in versus setting it up manually taking far more time. One other tip I've gotten from an M&R tech is to "hold it tightly" in place, keeping it in place more so, while it gets locked down. This is to say, "pushed up against the stop blocks"...and not just put in place. The locking down step, can make it jump a hair out, therefore the hold while you lock helps improve reg.
I am that guy in the shop who can do this fast. You can’t line up a 4-5 screen set up faster than a tri lock. I can get a 2 screen going faster but not 4-5

I will come to America in a few months. I have been dealing with this business for 15 years, is it possible for me to find a screen printing job there?
