What is the 4XTRON PS5?
The 4XTRON PS5 is a digital screen printing machine designed for educational institutions, DIY creators, and small studios.
Without the need for photosensitive emulsions, darkrooms, or processing rooms, the PS5 can directly transfer your designs from your computer to a pre-coated screen via USB. Creating an A4-sized screen typically takes only 90 seconds to 3 minutes, allowing you to complete the entire process from concept to printable screen in a single class, workshop, or production session.
The all-dry screen printing process means no darkrooms, no chemicals, and no wastewater treatment. This makes the PS5 particularly suitable for classrooms, home studios, and small production spaces where traditional screen printing equipment is unsuitable.
How the 4XTRON PS5 Works
Loading Your Design
Prepare your design on your Windows computer (BMP/PNG/JPG format or a 600 dpi bitmap exported from vector software), then send it to the PS5 as you would a regular print job.
Quick Screen Stretching
Screen stretching is achieved in seconds using a dedicated 4XTRON wooden frame and pre-coated screen. No special tools or professional skills are required.
Digital Screen Printing
Thermal imaging printheads transfer digital designs onto dedicated screen master materials in about 90 seconds—no emulsion coating, film positives, or washout required
Print Your Designs
Mount the finished screen onto a printing press or frame, then print on materials such as T-shirts, tote bags, and art paper using water-based or plastisol inks as needed.
Suitable for:
Educational Institutions
Art courses, vocational training programs, and school workshops that require a clean and safe screen printing process without chemical handling or darkrooms.
DIY and Maker Communities
Craft clubs, small creative teams, and parent-child workshops looking to print custom T-shirts, tote bags, and cards through simple, repeatable steps.
Small Studios and Micro-Brands
Independent designers, small studios, and local brands handling small-batch and custom orders (typically 10-50 pieces) need to quickly and riskily sample test products before going into mass production.
If you often think, "I really want to do screen printing, but I don't have a darkroom or developing area," then the PS5 is perfect for you.

With its fast digital plate-making, streamlined workflow, and compact hardware, the 4XTRON PS5 brings professional screen printing capabilities to spaces where traditional equipment cannot be accommodated.
The process is faster and more intuitive than traditional screen making,
with no special skills needed. Creating screens is as easy as pressing a button, just like using a printer.

The process eliminates the need for emulsions or chemicals, reducing resin usage and removing the washout step,
which means no wastewater is produced. Additionally, with no film positives, exposure, or drying required, it lowers power consumption.
![]()
It saves labor costs with its quick turnaround time compared to emulsion screen making, while its compact design reduces space requirements.
