Some thoughts on my new AnyCubic Wash & Cure station.

The Good:

The concept is great. Having an all in one unit that can wash and cure and be super flexible in doing so is a great dream. We all know how messy this can get and within the first 24 hours I can see how it reduces the mess in a big way.

The Size is great. Bigger than my sonic cleaner. Holds more fluid (IPA, Mean Green, Super Clean). The inner plastic reservoir with sealed top is great. The fact that you can support numerous Resin printers other than the Photon series with little to no modifications and a basket is a huge plus.

One of my concerns was the amount of turbulence associated with the basket being so close to the impeller. To combat this all I dd was put more liquid in the tub and it seemed to lower the turbulence down enough where it didn't break delicate miniatures with extended swords. Scientifically I am not sure I understand the physics of it but it seems to be accurate.

CONS

Ok here is where the machine fails to meet my needs. The cycle times are rubbish. 6 minutes max for both wash and cure. Why 6 minutes? I did 5 tests of washing with the mean green maxed in volume. It took 12 minutes before I felt anything was clean (in the basket). 18 minutes and it was clean. Same result with IPA. I would rather have a timer I could set to the time I want instead of 2, 4 or 6 minutes.

As for curing. The lights are NOT ENOUGH. One strip of lights and one bottom section of light required 5 cycles of curing (30 minutes) to get the items to cure fully. My UV nail dryer has 60w of power in a tighter area 4 bulbs and reflectors everywhere. It takes me 30 minutes in that machine to fully cure, sometimes 60 minutes (depending on the rotation of the parts. The rotating plate is cool, but the amount of light is just terrible. They should have made the entire riser arm full of bulbs. I can see how it would hold 7 rows of lights. Add some reflective material in the cover and I am sure it would cut down the curing process to a single session with user controlled time.

Such a great concept. Such a fantastic try at a first run. A few models from now this might be a winner but to me, this is just not up to par. Granted this is the opinion of someone who has only been printing with resin for a year, and has both the Photon and the Epax 3D. All I have ever used is a sonic cleaner and a UV nail light. I love the wash. It could more powerful. I hate the cure. Needs to be much more powerful. The timer...it is just crap. What was Anycubic thinking. I give it 2 stars out of 5.

So after all that work I broke my LCD today. Too funny. I ordered a different manufacturer and model to replace it.

Finally success! I had to downgrade to a way old firmware. Thanks for all the suggestions and help

Hi all, I am sorry to keep posting on the same topic but I am at a loss. I have had my photon for 15 months. No issues. I have printed literally hundreds of minis (300+) never had any real issues. However I "paused" a print and the machine kept going. I stopped the print. Cleaned up the mess, tried again. Fans wouldn't start (even after powering off etc). I was told to flash the firmware with the latest version. I am using the standard photon with no upgrades. So I went to the 4.2.19 version. Fan started working again but now my prints will not work at all. I get phantom printing on the sides of the print. I made sure via the normal tests that the UV light is working, I leveled the bed (a few times), set the zero height (a few times) and I still get arbitrary printing in areas that are outside my models print area, as well as attached to it. non of the extra printing is on the preview. I made sure my glass under the vat is clean with no debris, I have changed and tuned my FEP. I still get the same problem

To add to my woes, I decided to try out the new Photon Workshop V2. Noticed that when trying to add supports it does a really bad job of calculating supports automatically, and it does not show like the standard slicer where supports are needed. Have a look at the pic, how is this rook stress test going to print with this few supports. I have totally lost my confidence now which is causing me to second guess everything. Any help without bashing would be appreciated. I know I am trying to solve too many problems at one time but I am at a total loss. Also, if someone could attach the original test file (the cube on the stand) that would be appreciated. Somehow I lost it.

My woes continue. I am having no luck. I tried at 30 degree angle. Lots of supports and barely any. Complex models and easy ones. I am getting this kind of result. The model does not even have anything to print where the floppy resin is. The rest of the model is pretty good.

I am having no luck at all with my Photon. I have had this machine for a year, no issues. Suddenly in the middle of a print I had an error. Fan would no longer turn on. I had read that I needed to flash the firmware. So I DL the latest version 4.2.19 and start up the machine with the files copied to the root. I get a series of beeps, and then print the 1-fpga29_P29_104.bin file. System info now shows V4.2.9.3_LCD/1440x2560 /F2.9, I slice ANY file and go to print and I get this garbage printing out. Nothing like what I selected (and the only file on the USB drive). Steps I have taken: Run the factory reset gcode. Reflashed to 4.2.19. Re-sliced a simple file. Same result. Cleaned glass under the vat, replaced the FEP (which was perfectly clear), zeroed the plate. Run the test with known good settings...I am at a total loss here.

Anyone want to take a stab at this one. Updated to the latest firmware. Zeroed the bed. Made sure the printer is still level. And i got this.

Upgraded the firmware to the latest release and have not had a successful print since. I think I left out the step of leveling the bed again and setting the z height. I guess I thought I wouldn’t have to. Guess I thought wrong.

Hi all, two questions for the group. I have the spreadsheet that shows the proper NE,OT, BET, and BL...but there are multiple entries for Grey. Anyone care to guess the best for the photon? Also, the latest version of the Slicer. I am still using 1.3.6. Is the new RC1 version worth switching to? Thanks!
