Anycubic Photon Printer Owners 造訪社團 » LCD

I’ve recently started to have some issues with my original Photon. Hoping the collective hive can provide some insight. Recently anything on the right side of the printer is having some errors. No matter how big of a print it is at about the 60% mark a super thin layer forms around the model. This repeated at about 65%-75% and again around the 90%. I’ve had the printer for about a year now. It see regular use but not overt heavy use. I checked the LCD screen and everything seems to be functioning with no issues. Cleaned it off to ensure it doesn’t have anything on it. FEP has been replaced. But the issue persists and it’s only on the right side. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can do to correct this or what the issue might be?

Hopefully someone can help me figure this out. I have a designated flash drive just for updating the firmware. I update and the lcd test looks like the first pic... all is well... I put my other flash drive in that has my print files (both drives are formatted fat32) and try to print and it fails, I immediately run another lcd test and it looks like the second pic! But if I reflash the firmware again it goes back to normal!?! I haven’t had any successful prints in a while and I don’t know what I’m doing wrong.

Need help :'(

Right before Christmas I needed my printer for a gift, went to print and with my big surprise the LCD screen was dead. I curse a lot, and after that I bought an LCD for the Photon on Amazon and I managed to replace it.
Since that moment I've never been able to get a good complete print out of it.
What's happening is that the LCD shows up everything correctly but most of the items I go to print, don't stick to the build plate. I want to specify that during the screen replacement I had to scrape off and replace the double sided foam tape with a new one, and it seemed to be the same height.

Is there something that might be causing this issue? Of the 4 items I try to print in one go, usually just 1/2 come out, and they are perfect. Could this be a problem of the FEP film? I never changed it so far, but it doesn't seem that bad

Just checking. No rectangle on LCD test means dead LCD? Worth checking cables?

Hi,

I have wird question. Anyone here have iphone X, XS or 11? I search about "alternative" glass replacement and this smartphones have almost exact dimmensions like photon's glass. They are narrower, but maybe glasses for them still can be glued as replacement. Based on LCD documentation and iphone's photos, they shout cover screen perfectly, but there will remain a gap in photon mounting point.

Anyone can check that?

I can buy original glass but... here they are overpriced as hell and delivery from china are 1 month minimum. I need replacement ASAP :P

And second question, how thick are photon's tempered glass?

Okay guys, need some help dismantling the photon.
Without going to the little details, resin is spilled in the inside of the printer, it didn't get to the screen because the resin vat was still on top, so I cleaned it with a paper towel and alcohol (not excessive amount). But the cynicism in me told me that resin got to the interior parts, and I was right, now there's some resin on the side walls of where the electronic stuff is, some resin on some cords, but as far as I could see, nothing on the motherboard.
Now how should I go about cleaning it? Dismantling it? If so is there a tutorial somewhere where there's step by step direction to how to do it? Or does any cubic cover that kind of damage? I mean I tested if it turns on (yes if electronics get wet you usually want to wait until you know it's completely dry before you even try to turn it in) and it does turn on, the LCD seems to work fine, like nothing wrong with it but I definitely don't want to print anything until I cleaned the resin.

Help Request!
I've made several successful prints with the guidance of this group and the github page, but now I'm having a mysterious issue.
My printer does not seem to be, well, printing anymore. By that I mean my first clue was not hearing the peel pop from new rafts... so I figured the first layers never adhered. I skimmed the vat and fep and found no debris, so I retried the print and got the same result. Not even a trace of any printing occurring. Then I thought faulty LED, so I had it shine the test pattern. I see blue/violet light through my LCD. I've been running successful prints roughly every day for a week and have just been adding to the vat and carefully stirring/scraping with the spatula.

Thoughts? Thanks!

Carbon filter Merv rating?

I want to reduce odor pumped into the atmosphere. Does carbon filters help with this? What Merv rating would I need? I have a chart for what merv rating needed and their chemicals. However, I have trouble finding what chemicals are in the "ELEGOO standard grey photopolymer Resin for LCD" Elegoo does not state any chemicals they use. Formlabs shows what their resin uses, but people claim to barely smell it. I assume formlabs uses a different ingredient all together.

Hi,

I wanna order LCD replacement and have a question. Photon motherboard can handle 4k screen? If yes, how to do that? Asking because simple screen replace is to easy :P
