Round Screen Printing
This technique is similar to silkscreen printing, just the surface that will be printed is round (e.g. glasses, cups, bottles). The machine has a system of axes that will move the item under the mesh and will rotate it at the same time with a horizontal movement of the mesh so the logo can be printed all around the item.
