Anycubic Photon Printer Owners 造訪社團 » LCD

Printed a half an object yesterday. looks like the forward half of the LCD screen is out. I ran the test image and this seems to confirm. Has this come up? Mainly, I want to get up and running again and want to order the right parts. What are your thoughts?

Hi all!

Been having great success with the help of the Anycubic Support team, they sent a special firmware that fixed some crazy errors I was having.

Is it time to order a new screen or do you think it's an LCD firmware issue??
Thanks!!

What a difference a new LCD makes.

High performance FunToDo Industrial blend red.
I used 0.05 mm layers @12s normal exposure, 35s base exposure, 5 layers.

Have to love that stuff, was about to tinker with object scaling or even LCD resolution for the anycubic white.
Now I have my first nested cube fitting out of the FTD IB resin :)
Also printed some PCB casing, buttons fit perfectly, not on the AC white casing.

The object feel is very nice, they definitely have added some flex part. You get kind of a soft touch surface, smooth but feels a very little bit rubbery, I like it. Compared to other resin parts which feel like blank plastics from the press.

Sorry for dark images.
Still working on my cleaning skills, some residues got into after curing.

LCD change.

Biggest note for first timers, ORDER A REPLACEMENT SCREEN TOO.

YOU WILL BREAK YOUR FIRST ONE.

So I’ve been looking into a resin printer for a little while now and have narrowed it down to the Anycubic Photon, and the Peopoly Moai. I’m REALLY leaning toward the Anycubic, my only question is cost over time up front it’s about 1/3 the cost of the Moai but it seems like there’s a bit more upkeep cost with the lcd, and the Fep screen every few months where as the Moai has cost with the vat only(excluding post process and resin costs for both)? What are everyone’s thoughts?

Secondly I’m limited on ventilated space and was hoping to create some sort of carbon filter/exhaust system. What do you all use here to filter the fumes from your printer?
Thanks in advance!!

Hi I'm new in this group so would like to say Hello to everyone.
I would like to ask you abut advice/help in choosing the right product for my application. At the moment I'm using 2 FDM printers for prototyping. Unfortunately they struggle when it comes to the very fine details.
This is where LCD based resin printer comes in. Unfortunately I have no experience on the resin prints durability. So I worked out that any from the below would be a great help:

1. Can one find a resin which is slightly flexible so you can for example make a 2 piece snap together matchbox size moulding prototype which wont fall apart on 1st try?
2. Can anyone send me his some of his prints(failures) with thin walls so I can check how the resin behaves (UK / will cover the cost )
3. Can someone print me one of my models (matchbox size) and send it to me (UK / will cover the cost )
Thank you

Alright... this feels like a dumb question, but in the Anycubic photon slicer, I click on open file, go to the USB stick and find the Photon.Photon file, open it and it pops up the LCD viewer. but it doesn't add it to the print box displayed on the screen. Am I missing something SUPER obvious?

NEED HELP ASAP

what could be causing this? two prints stopped in exactly the same place, then past that point it seems to light up the entire lcd screen and puts this horrible layer of resin on the bottom of the FEP, plates leveled properly as obviously it prints up to this point just fine any advice ?
