The P5 X excels with its high precision, quality, versatility, usability and advanced features:

  • Precision and Accuracy
Magnetic linear motors on the X and Y axes ensure precise, reliable movement across the entire workspace. This advanced system allows for faster and simpler positioning without
compromising on accuracy, even at high speeds.
  • Powerful Vacuum Table
The P5 X is equipped with a vacuum table featuring 12 selectable zones. The four larger zones can be easily adjusted using individual sliders to adapt to the width of the print material, optimizing suction power. Additionally, the vacuum can be reversed for quick and efficient material removal.
  • Versatile Color Configuration
The P5 X offers 10 color channels that can be configured to meet specific requirements. Channels include inks from the P5 series, combining CMYK, White, Fluo, Orange, Violet, Light-Cyan, Light-Magenta, Light-Black, Varnish, and Primer, providing ultimate customization for a variety of projects, applications and media types.
  • Optimized Printing Usability
    • Twin Printing Mode: Seamless dual-side printing for increased efficiency without waiting times.
    • Reverse Printing: Enables one-pass white over and under printing using a single printhead.
    • Multitrack: Supports simultaneous printing on up to 12 channels (6 per side) with different images or board sizes.
  • Visual Status Bar

The status bar provides operators with key information about the print system at a glance. It shows system readiness, remaining print time, ink status, and more, allowing for efficient monitoring and swift reactions to any situation.

The P5 X is built with operator convenience in mind. Its ergonomic design minimizes outer edges, allowing boards to be loaded and unloaded comfortably in an upright position. Safety features include a light curtain on the print carriage that slows down the printing in case of interruption, ensuring maximum safety. The P5 X also includes user-friendly LED indicators that show the correct positioning for boards and identify which vacuum rows should be activated. Magnetic pins are easy to mount, streamlining the entire setup process.
