Screen Printing on Koozies Made Easy

Screen printing on Koozies is big business, with hundreds of thousands of koozies printed and sold every year as company promotional giveaways and marketing items. Koozies are collapsible, allowing for easy access of cans or bottles, although making it challenging for printing without the right screen printing machine. You need a versatile screen printing machine that can handle printing multiple colors on koozies of varying sizes and thickness, on a collapsible foam product.  
Systematic Automation Offers Versatile Koozie Printer
Systematic Automation is recognized as a leading manufacturer of screen printing machines, with more than two dozen models to choose from and capabilities to print on virtually any substrate.

Improve Adhesion of Plastics with Flame Treatment


Plastic products are generally not conducive to bonding with coatings or varnishes as the surface is very nonporous.  When applying outer coatings such as in a screen printing operation, or applying lacquers, varnishes or laminates, plastic products must be treated first in order to bond with the application. Flame treatment machines solve this problem and successfully prepare plastic products for adhesion with additional materials.
Flame treatment machines alter the surface of plastic by literally changing the molecular structure of the surface making it accepting to adhesion with other materials, all without visually changing or damaging the plastic part in any way.  Flame treatment machines quickly expose the plastic to a high heat flame which is all that is needed to alter the outer surface, allowing coatings to adhere to the plastic surface.
Systematic Automation Offers Proven Flame Treatment Systems

Flame treatment systems are proven to be highly effective and cost-efficient, in addition to being safer than other methods used to improve adhesion such as use of chemicals. Flame treatment machines can be incorporated into your additional processes such as screen printing with parts passing from one station to the next with no interruption. Products quickly move through the flame treating machine which provides 360° of exposure in seconds, then right into additional processes such as screen printing.  

With the right flame treatment equipment, there is no need to purchase, store or dispose of hazardous chemicals to alter the surface of your plastic products. Flame treating is effective, cost-efficient and safe for employees. Flame treatment also provides a very consistent process as opposed to applying chemicals to products which would result in uneven applications and evaporation affecting quality.

Systematic Automation manufactures flame treatment systems, screen printing machines, UV curing systems and screen printing machines for your one stop automated solution.  We help many industries to realize maximum throughput and improved quality with flame treatment systems including:

Router Vacuum Tables Improve Process Quality


Computer numerically controlled (CNC) router applications need consistent and reliable hold down during precision processes. Router vacuum tables are the key to providing CNC applications with consistent quality, greatly improving applications that require reliable hold down force. CNC router vacuum systems are utilized in a multitude of commercial and industrial applications worldwide to improve the process and product quality of CNC operations.

Router vacuum tables are widely utilized to improve precision processes in the following CNC router applications:

Plotter cutter systems – Significant hold down force is required in precision plotter-cutter applications such as cutting canvas and delicate materials. When cutting large canvases, a 28mm blade is typically used to cut through flexible material without causing damage to the sacrificial layer or the material surface. A carbide straight blade provides additional force when cutting through strengthened materials.

Engraving applications – Reliable router vacuum tables are required to hold products securely in place during precise engraving processes.

Sail Making – Just like plotter cutter systems, cutting through large canvases during sail making processes requires reliable vacuum hold down force. CNC router vacuums provide the sail making industry with the required hold down force to accurately and quickly make sails to specifications.

Screen Printing – Screen printing on items requires the product to be held firmly in place during printing processes. Router vacuums hold products and various substrates securely while screen printing for improved quality and process time. Vacuum platens can be incorporated with screen printing machines for a seamless operation when printing on various items such as plastic or metal parts, glassware, paper, cups, mugs and cardboard.

Flexography – Flexography machines require a reliable vacuum hold down table to remove oxygen from the process of manufacturing rubber rolls and making plates while maintaining air flow.
