Phoenixarcade.com
was started in 2000 with the focus of bringing you the highest quality
arcade & pinball reproduction graphics and parts. As the industry
leader with over $5,000,000 in sales (as of 2018) and a worldwide
customer base as the top choice of retailers, movie studios and
celebrity restorations.
We are known for taking on the
most difficult projects and doing it right, regardless of time and cost.
Our main product focus is the golden age of arcade games from 1979-1985
where approx 95% of arcade artwork was originally screen printed by the
manufacturers such as Atari, Bally, Williams, Taito etc… The screen
printing process is very labor intensive and costly and requires one to
print a large qty to keep the costs down. However that means we have a
very large amount of inventory. Few of our competitors do screen
printing and the ones that do have a very small catalog. Most of our
competitors have chosen the improving inkjet-digital-solvent-next gen
technology. There is still a discernible difference between the
processes on most pieces. The biggest advantage of their process is they
can click print and have a piece ready within seconds. Little to no
inventory.
The screen printing process involves creating an
art file from scanning the piece or stitching together high res non
compressed photo images of the piece being reproduced. After the file is
created and cleaned up with individual color separations a set of films
is output. One film for each color. Each film is then placed on an
exposure box with high intensity light and burns (creates) the image
onto a piece of framed mesh creating a silk screen for that color. This
process is repeated until a screen for each color is made.
For example if there is black, red, yellow, blue, lt blue, green, purple, orange then 8 screen must be made.
We
custom mix and match each color in a paint (ink) bucket. Similar to
mixing paint at a home improvement store. The mixing process is done
until the color is matched and the formula is noted for future runs.
This process is repeated until we have a match for each color in their
own respective bucket. The screen is laid onto the printing board where a
piece of vinyl, glass, acrylic etc… will be printed on. One screen
and color is laid down at a time. After each color the printed piece is
put through a large dryer to bake (harden) the ink. The process is then
repeated for each color until finished. The inkjet method uses 4 colors
CMYK like a home printer to mix the colors based on the formula you
input.
We specify in our auctions if the item is screen
printed or not. Hardly anyone screen prints anymore due to the cost and
complexity. If their description does not say screen printed, it’s not!
They would be bragging about it.
