Anycubic Photon Printer Owners 造訪社團 » UV

My print going great for the pass few month. It print as it should.

But for the pass 2 days i keep trying to print. It stick on the base then after few layer it peel off and failed. I try a few time for first layer calibration. Try exposure up 160sec for the base still failed.

It is sign the UV start to weaken and need replace?

Grey resin oem brand china.

So my wonderfully brand spanking new Anycubic arrived with a busted circuit board as determined by the error code as it was only displaying half an image when doing the UV Detect test. So a new board will be shipped out from China while I hopelessly stair at the printer thinking of what I could be printing ? !!!!! I am hoping someone on here knows, what is the make and model of the main circuit board as I am attempting to locate one on Amazon or anywhere closer than China so that I can hopefully start printing sooner than 2 plus weeks from now?

a few times recently I’ve noticed funky parts on my prints Uv test reveals flicker power cycle and it’s gone few prints later it’s back. Any suggestions? I have a new lcd but don’t want to install it if it’s not the issue.

Hey Guys, so... i have a few questions i would like for the community to help me with. Sorry it will be a bit of a long post xD.

I got my Photon this week. Here's what i did (questions come after :p ).

- Checked everything was working properly working, turned on the printer, checked if the Z-Axis was moving, if the screen was ok, etc.

- Ditched the stock PSU and USB drive (tested the PSU and its outputing the correct voltage but i ditched it anyway), im using another one i had here with the exact same specs, USB drive im now using a Kingston one.

- Disconnected the "smelling" fan from the main board to avoid the fumes from getting out and stinking up the place. (Planing to upgrade the stock led cooling fan, suggestions???)

- Checked every screw to see if everything was properly tightened (the buildplate wasnt, it would move even after tightening the grub screw).

- Checked the FEP tension with a sound analyzer, it was below 300hz... tuned it to 345-355hz.

- Applied Kapton tape to the borders of the screen (to avoid a spill going into the machine in case that happens).

- Adjusted the buildplate to be completely flat against the screen, made sure that the plate was making even pressure on the paper on all sides (front, back, left and right). After that i leveled the printer and set the new Z=0 (didnt forget to hit Home first :p ).

- Finally i heated up the resin (room temp was 19C) and started the default print file that came with the printer (photos attached).

So, now some questions.

1 - The new yellow windows, how good are they at blocking UV? The printer is not on a direct sunlight enviroment, not even daylight for that matter, but the room does have okayish lighting (there is no light directly above the printer), i am safe to assume resin wont cure while inside? I know i can cover up the printer but im trying to understand if its really necessary.

2 - Do you guys filter the resin and clean the vat after every print? I saw some people mentioning it... but to be completely honest i've never done that with my other printer, well... my other printer doesnt have the leaking risk this one has... So... what do you guys do?

3 - Firmware... my printer came with version 4.2.3... I dont see that in Anycubic site, anyone has the changelog for this fw? Just curious.

4 - Recommendations for resin, im looking for high detail. Impact resistance is not really important right now (Anycubic resins, how do they stack up against the competition?)

5 - Which one is better for the screen to last more? Slow or fast resins?

And for now thats it! Thanks guys...one of the reasons i got the Photon was for this awesome community =)

嘿, 夥計們, 所以... 我有幾個問題想讓社羣幫我解決. 抱歉, 這將是一個漫長的帖子xd.

我這周得到了我的光子. 這就是我所做的(問題之後: p).

-檢查一切正常運作, 開啟印表機, 檢查z軸是否移動, 螢幕是否正常等等.

-丟棄了存貨psu和usb驅動器(測試psu及其輸出正確的電壓, 但我還是拋棄了它), 我在這裡使用了另一個, usb驅動器, usb驅動器現在使用金斯敦.

-從主板上斷開"聞"風扇, 以避免煙霧出來, 讓地方臭. (計劃升級庫存led冷卻風扇, 建議???)

-檢查了每個螺絲, 看一切是否都收緊了(建築板沒有, 甚至在收緊後也會移動).

-用音效分析儀檢查了fep緊張, 低於300 hz... 調到345-355 hz.

-將kapton磁帶應用到螢幕的邊界(以防發生洩漏到機器).

-調整構建板完全平坦, 以確保板塊對紙板對紙面(前, 背面, 左和右)施加壓力. 之後, 我平平了印表機, 設定了新的z =0 (沒有忘記先打家: p).

-最後我加熱樹脂(房間溫度為19 c), 並啓動了印表機的預設列印檔案(照片附後).

所以, 現在有一些問題.

1-新的黃色窗戶, 阻擋紫外線有多好? 印表機不在直接陽光環境上, 連白天也沒有, 但房間確實有okayish照明(印表機上方沒有光), 我可以安全地假設樹脂治癒嗎? 我知道我可以掩飾印表機, 但我試著理解是否真的有必要.

2-你們在每次列印後過濾樹脂並清理增值稅嗎? 我看到有些人提到它... 但老實說, 我從來沒有和我的另一個印表機做過, 好吧... 我的另一個印表機沒有洩漏風險... 那麼... 你們這些傢伙是甚麼? 做甚麼?

3-固件... 我的印表機有4.2.3. 版.. 我沒看到在任何立方體網站, 有人有這個fw的改裝? 只是好奇.

4-樹脂推薦, 我正在尋找詳細的細節. 現在抵御衝擊並不重要(任何立方體樹脂, 他們是如何堆積起來對抗競爭的?) 你知道嗎?

5-哪一個更好讓螢幕持續更多? 慢或快速樹脂?

現在就這樣! 謝謝大家... 我得到光子的原因之一是這個很棒的社羣=)

I have not bought this, but discovered while mindlessly browsing

1L bottles of 405nm UV resin. Variety of colours.

So I'm having a strange problem. I have multiple items to print and onlya couple will form. Below is the image getting UV and then the end results. This has happen on multiple prints even after I reslice the files. I’m using a stick photon and stock settings from the slicer. I’m using anycubic green resin.

Also some of prints from the same sole will result in more prints. Sometimes somethings forms on the film where the item was suppose to be and other times nothing.

So my printer just locked up, original photon.. about a month old and will not do anything. no fan, z axis wont move up or down, doesnt do anything other than screen comes on and lets you cycle through stuff but does not do anything. uv test says completed but does not light up, reads memory card but does nothing. put firmware on memory card and it sees it but wont do anything with it. Help

In case anyone's interested, I just upped a resin curing chamber designed for the Deep Dream UV light strip on Amazon (it's meant to fit the whole strip semi-flush to the sides of the chamber).

It's my fancy upgrade to what I was using (the same UV strip taped on a translucent plastic takeout soup container).

There are two models -- one designed to have the strip inside the chamber, and one designed for printing in translucent filament and having the strip outside the chamber (in case you want to seal it and do water curing).

This will not print on an Anycubic Photon.

Had my printer working nearly non stop for a couple of months, until today, turn it on choose file print, then during first layer i noticed the build plate was crooked, hit stop fixed and then when i hit print again, nothing, no movement, turn it on and off, removed everything, now no more uv light nor axis movement, and it was all working till i hit stop... any idea here?
