Anycubic Photon Printer Owners 造訪社團 » TIP

So, new problem for me - build plate is a bit loose and rotates slightly around the z-axis of the build plate. Rotation around the X and Y axis seems to be secure. Just a bit of a wiggle around the z-axis, maybe 2-3 degrees total.

Already checked for multiple set screws and it's not that. I have only printed 3 prints on the printer and never had resin above the rectangular boss on the top of the build plate - so I doubt it's resin in the ball joint. tightened the set screw pretty tight and no change.

Any thoughts on how to fix or should I just do the z-level mod?

Hi together!
Is there a solution to upgrade the photons light source to a more powerful variant? If there are multiple, which would you prefer? What steps besides the assembly would be necessary?
Thanks!

Thanks for the tips I received here, finally finished two complete 1/6 garage kits printing. Also grateful for the shares stl files.

Hi guys new to the group and also a new owner of the photon. I'm having issues with the photon not printing and have the print stick to the bottom of the vat. I have done the flint leveling method multiple times and still have issues. I'm useing the original usb that came with it could that be a potential cause of failed prints?

Okay, so given my problems of the past few days with hardly anything sticking to the build plate, I've done the following:

- Changed out the FEP, the original of which had a divot in it
- Scraped dried resin off the screen, which was probably the cause of the divot
- Re-leveled multiple times
- Tinkered with the bottom exposure time (currently 70, ran resin test @100) and bottom layers (10-12).

Anycubic green, first few prints went fine. Shaken thoroughly every time from a bottle I opened yesterday.

Screen and FEP are now squeaky-clean, and once I got the mess cleaned off the screen and re-re-re-leveled I was hopeful and decided to print one of those resin calibration strips to see what my best exposure time would be... and it failed, left side dangling from the platform as it rose up, with hardly anything legible on it except the number 8 (though there were holes in the print above the 8...).

Could this happen from my FEP being too tight or too loose? Is there a better way to check its tightness than "it sounds like a drum"? If that's not it, I'm not sure what else to try.

I've managed to print a few minis, but only because if I put 4 into a .photon I can sometimes get one or two of them to print :p . The volume of resin I've thrown away dwarfs the amount that's sitting in miniature form waiting to be painted.

Hello eweryone i am new on this group i just bought Anycubic Photon S , any tips what i must to know before to start printing .or maybe anyone can give to me quick tutorial how to calibrate first layer ,whith speed to use or layer high.

So a bit of damage/occlusion on my FEP is finally to the point of distorting prints to failure in one spot near the middle of the print area. I can work around it for a bit with my smaller items, but I'm curious how difficult it is to change the film out? Anything I should know ahead of time or tips?

I'm getting soooooo close to a completed print. Any tips?

Going to try and do the rooks everyone is doing.

Im going to design a custom usb enclosure for a spare usb flash drive i have. Im using Fusion 360. Tips for a proper size fit and calibration? Kinda newbie here ?

Edit: printed go-nogo test and only - 0.3 plug fitted the torus.

Second miniature I made for my Patreon.

The miniatures are all compatible with each other so parts can be mixed and matched easy.

With the addition of multiple heads and weapons 3 nun can make a lot of variations.
