Abstract
Peel control for an off-contact printing press. The peel control includes a clutch and a linkage assembly synchronized in its peeling action in a printing stroke with a conventional carriage assembly mounting the squeegee and flood bar. In the printing stroke, the clutch is engaged to effect pivot of the master frame relative to the horizontal printing bed of the press and synchronized with the carriage assembly movement to effect peeling of the print screen in such a print stroke. Upon completion of the print stroke, the clutch is disengaged to permit return of the master frame to its horizontal position relative to the print bed. Thereafter, the flood bar is moved in its flood stroke across the print screen, which will be in a horizontal position relative to the print bed also, to the initial position for the succeeding print stroke.
