Anycubic Photon Printer Owners 造訪社團 » resin

I’m totally new and using Mr. Clean in an ultrasonic cleaner and wondering about disposal as well. I’m interested to hear what others have to say ?

normal exposure to 30s?? that is overcuring them to the point of frying! what resin are you using?

Zena Andreou anycubic grey

no way! try 11 seconds normal exposure. and like 60 for bottom layer exposure

Change normal exposure to 7 seconds. Everything else stays the same

Zena Andreou .... What actually Is bottom exposure....

Is that the layer that makes it stick to the bed

yes.

On the print now will take 26mins.....

They came out flat.....

Alcohol inks should Work Like for normal Resin casting

You just have to experiment. I have tried inks and resin pigments. They do make the resin more brittle, but they work.

Mix red and green resin?

I've been using the Elegoo water washable resins...I'll have to give that a try

Heh...didn't think of that. Thanks

Monocure cmyk pigments is another option.

Trying to find some good cheap castable resin myself. Anything I've seen so far it's about $60 and up for 500 mL which seems a little bit crazy expensive to me considering regular resin is only 16 to $18 for 500 ml. How do any of the regular resin burn out of a mold or do they?

I've only done wax injections

Kenny Prestia another thought I had is if the program exists where you can take like a ring that you've made and have the program build a mold around it. Then you could export the mold and print that, inject it with some wax and use that for your casti ng. Where printing the ring by itself might cost $0.25 for the resin, printing a mold for it might cost 50 to 75 but I think it would still be cheaper than castable resin. I don't know if such a thing is even possible but it's just some idea that I had.

Keith Yinger I've seen some people do it. But it burns off dangerous chemicals... They also did the burn outside

Ryan Neal I'm outside whenever I'm doing anything with my Forge anyways. It was the ash residue that it might leave behind that I was thinking about. I've got a gas mask on whenever the forge is burning and I'm near it. As far as burning off dangerous chemicals that thought didn't really occur to me. Couldn't be any more dangerous than zinc fumes when you're melting brass or something like that I protect myself from anyways. I'm going to have to sit down with something like Fusion 360 and see if I can figure out how to make molds. It seems like you can use it to create molds I'm just not sure how. Also not sure if I can take for example a ring and tell it to make a mold of this?

I've seen some formlabs stuff claiming to be able to make molds for low temp melt metals.

As for castable resin, I use the lost wax method w/ castable resin

I'm hoping to do Lost wax casting also just trying to think of a different way than spending 60 bucks or better on castable resin. I would 3D print a mold then use it to make a wax cast. Then go about lost wax casting in the normal way.

As long as you mix it up after it sits for awhile it will work fine

Following ?

around 37ml if i remember correctly

All of the resin. You ain't cool unless you post a pic with the resin damn near overflowing.

that way to less

?‍♀️ ?‍♀️

Up to the line is around 100 ml.

150 ml I think

Pour resin up to the line where the chamfer starts in the vat, about a quarter up from the FEP. This is about 125ml. From the Photonsters github

125ml per spec

It's better to not fill all the way. Resen gets into the screws and the ball joint. Gums up the works and needs a deep cleaning

150ml is a safe max

Füll es sicherheitshalber mit Wasser auf und wiege es dann. 1 ml = 1 gramm. Wüsste ich es auch nicht genau aus dem Kopf.

I love how so many people are guessing at something that is easily measured.

when i measure out 100ml in a beaker it goes just barely over that line...

Aaron Strome dont make me weak, Just started a 9h Print 3 hours ago. IT needs 110ml. I am Not coming Home until 10 hours ?

you have a lot of things to work out if you are judging my what chitubox say it weighs. is it hollow that adds a bit for trapped resin the surface resin that is left on it after the print and i always add 30ml more than chitubox says since it has been wrong many times before

Aaron Strome oh No ?

yeah unfortunately i think you're @#$%'ed sorry... unless you have someone who can add more resin or hit pause until you get home..

Aaron Strome my girlfriend is Not able to fill it . And Pause makes ugly Lines ?

ugly lines versus a headless print.. hmmmm

Mario Hippmann that’s because the temperature of the resin inside vat is higher than the one you are adding. So mixing them both will change resin temperature inside vat and also how much it’s expand when the layer is curing. If you are able to add some heat to the resin in the bottle, this effect should be less or none.

Aaron Strome yes i got fuc*** ? Just s little Bit was Missing

Luiz Junior rly? Thats the reason for the Lines ? I would have a Heat blower, but now its to late ?

Mario Hippmann shitty

Mario Hippmann you can pause and resume without add more resin and check that the lines won’t appear, only if you add cold resin to it. I’m thinking on a way to heat it easy...

coll, aber bedenklich ;) mit belichtungszeiten

zeig mal nah aufnahme, wenn trocken, wie die übergänge von farbe zu farbe sind

;)

If the so-called "Fauxton" is the Photon S innards in the Photon case, simple logic would suggest that the Photon S test can be used.

I thought fauxton has the original Photon LED rather than the upgraded -S version. i figured that would mean different print times and therefore the -S calibratoin test wouldnt be accurate. But I dont know ,hence the enquiry

I'm pretty sure the fauxton just has the photon s motherboard, everything else is the same as the photon.

If you cant read the .photon file you need to upgrade the firmware to 5.x.xx or whatever the v5 firmware is

its not the .photon file im having a problem. its gcode for the resin xp finder off github. I'm hoping to avoid multiple subpar test prints while i dial in the settings for the new resin

Christopher King the LED wasn't upgraded - just the original CBD mainboard replaced with the one from the Photon S.

There is one on Thingiverse for the Fauxton S..
