What this tool is for

This bundle brings together a 30 W UV LED unit, an 18 × 24-inch acrylic sheet, a 17 × 21-inch foam pad and an exposure step wedge. The pad and sheet help keep the film in contact with the coated screen. The maker designed those pieces around a 20 × 24-inch screen. Compare their dimensions with your own frame opening, especially if its rails are wider than usual.

Fit and buying advice

This version is useful when you need both a light and the parts that hold the film against the screen. If you already have a suitable pressure setup, the same maker’s lamp is sold separately. Follow the unit and emulsion instructions and use the exposure wedge to test your setup. The right settings depend on the emulsion and setup.

Questions about this tool

Does the pad fit a frame with a 20 × 24-inch outside size?

Check the inside opening against the 17 × 21-inch pad. Rails can take up different amounts of space.

What does the exposure wedge do?

It helps compare how the emulsion develops through different exposure levels so you can calibrate the setup with the materials you use.

Does this replace a complete printing kit?

It covers the exposure setup. Plan separately for the frame, stencil material, film positive and the tools and ink used to make the print.
