Abstract: A process for producing a mold for electrolytically producing seamless rotary screen printing stencils is disclosed which includes the steps of: providing a metal mold body having a cylindrical outer surface; covering the outer surface with a sensitive layer such as a photo-sensitive layer, a thermo-sensitive layer or an electrically sensitive layer; exposing predetermined portions of the sensitive layer to a beam which is controlled electronically thereby creating exposed portions of the sensitive layer as well as unexposed portions of the sensitive layer; removing the unexposed portions of the sensitive layer; generating indentations in the metal body at locations where the unexposed portions of the sensitive layer have just been removed; removing the exposed portions of the sensitive layer; and filling the indentations with a non-conductive filler.
