Anycubic Photon Printer Owners 造訪社團 » 用戶發文

Hello to all ?

Got my hands on a photon for testing and most certainly buying it. Just ran a couple test now.

Main question here : As a form2 user I'm trying to figure out how close the photon can go with details ?
Ran several tests with monocure rapid grey, printed at 25 mic with 8 sec exposure time, and I still have a "melted wax" effect (visible on the hand holding the halberd). I mainly print "mechanical" models (vehicle/ships) with lots of hard lines on details at the millimeter scale.

I'm aware that it's a combination of resin, resin settings and printer. Are there resin better suited to handle crisp details ?
Would a heater in the machine help fluidify the resin ?
Is LCD exposure an intrinsic limitation for hard edge details (melted wax effect) ?

Thank you

Hiya !

Asked this among other questions on the Photon a few months back, but since I now have a test machine but I'll ask confirmation in thus specific point :

Cleaning different resins in the same IPA tank, Yay or Nay ?
I do have a form cleaning station I'm using to clean the form2 prints, but cleaning parts from the Photon in the same tank will be ok ?

Thanks in advance ?

Hello people ? .

I was thinking of answering another post but have another bunch of questions about the photon.

I'm a form2 user, very sarisfied with the machine (failure rate very low, precise manual support placement in Preform and very small supports tip, etc etc). I'm looking for a secondary resin printer to try to lower production costs for miniatures production, and currently looking at both the Moai and the Photon.

I did have a Wanhao D7 and couldn't achieve a decent print. Horrible Z wobble, very imprecise so didn't fit my requirements. Maybe I had a bad machine, I don't know.

The pro of the Photon is its low price both resin and machine. I see rather positive feedback on it but still have a few questions :

1. As I don't have much room left, I was wondering if it was possible to rince the prints from both machine in the same ISO alcohol container or could this cause issue with the cleaning with twi types of resin dissolved in the same tank ?

2. Is there a simple way to add a température regulation in the print chamber ? Tried same print with formlabs resin with and without the heating, and the resin is much more fluid when heated and yields far better results on the form2.

3. Is this printer really reliable ?

4. Does the software allows for manual support placement ? Don't want to have a forest of supports when only a dozen is required ? .

Thank you all for your input on this. ?
