Vastex Pro 2 — The Most Affordable Way to Start Your Screen Printing Business

Launching a screen printing business means buying a lot of equipment that all has to work together. The Vastex Pro 2 package is the most affordable complete way in: a genuine, USA-made Vastex shop built around a V-1000 6-color / 6-station press. Expose your own screens, print vibrant multi-color designs, flash between colors, and cure production-ready garments — every core stage covered by matched, professional gear.

Everything You Need to Start Printing — In One Package

The press is included, and so is the equipment to expose screens, flash and cure. Here’s the workflow and how the pieces fit together:

#	Stage	Included product	What it’s for
1	Expose your screens	Vastex E-200 21×28 LED Exposure Unit	Burns your stencils with true vacuum draw-down: a lid with a vacuum pump pulls film and screen into tight contact for razor-sharp detail. Three 18″ LED bars expose screens up to 21×28, controlled by a simple one-touch panel.
2	Print up to 6 colors	Vastex V-1000 6-Color / 6-Station Press	The heart of your shop: a commercial free-standing manual rotary press with six print stations and six colors, a wrench-free floating-head micro-registration system and steel pallets. Holds screens up to 21×28 and prints registered multi-color designs.
3	Flash between colors	Vastex F-1000 18″×18″ Flash Dryer	An 18×18 infrared flash cure with adjustable heat control and power lights that gels plastisol between colors. High-density heat spreads evenly with no hot spots, on a heavy-duty frame with side handles and wheels.
4	Cure your prints	Vastex LittleRed X1 30″ Conveyor Dryer	The final step: a 30″ infrared conveyor dryer with a single infrared element and digital temperature control that cures plastisol and water-based prints as garments come off the press — and the tilting heater handles hats too.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Vastex Pro 2 Package — Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Vastex Pro 2 package?

It’s the most affordable complete screen printing shop package — a turnkey starter setup of genuine Vastex equipment built to launch a printing business. It includes the press plus everything to expose screens, flash between colors, and cure finished prints.

Is the press included?

Yes — the Vastex V-1000 6-color / 6-station press is the centerpiece. It’s a commercial free-standing manual rotary press with wrench-free floating-head registration that prints up to six colors.

What’s included?

Four pieces: the V-1000 6-color / 6-station press, the E-200 21×28 exposure unit, the F-1000 18×18 flash dryer, and the LittleRed X1 30″ conveyor dryer.

Does it include a screen drying cabinet?

No — Pro 2 keeps the price down by leaving out the drying cabinet. You can air-dry coated screens, or add a Dri-Cab drying cabinet to dry them dust-free.

Is this a good way to start a screen printing business?

Yes — it’s our most affordable complete Vastex shop. Instead of piecing together gear from different brands, you get one matched, professional setup that covers the core process, can be financed together, and is backed by our support.

What else do I need to start printing?

A way to make film positives (a film-positive printer), a washout booth, a way to dry coated screens (air-dry or a drying cabinet), and consumables — emulsion, screens & mesh, inks, squeegees, tape and garments.

How many colors can it print?

Up to six colors on six stations with the included V-1000 free-standing rotary press.

How is Pro 2 different from the other packages?

Pro 2 is the entry setup: a 6-color V-1000 press, an F-1000 flash and a LittleRed X1 dryer (no cabinet). The Pro 3 steps up to 8 colors with a cabinet and Air Flash, and the industrial V-2000 Shop 2 / Shop 3 packages add more capacity.

Can I buy the pieces separately, and is financing available?

Yes to both — every item links to its own product page, and the package can be financed as a single setup. Call (512) 454-0505 and we’ll help you spec your space and power, install everything, and get you printing.
