Anycubic Photon Printer Owners 造訪社團 » 用戶發文

I ran into an odd printing issue yesterday. The short of it is that somewhere in the middle of a print there is, I guess a layer, where on one side of my vat the print seemed to fail. The failure only occurred on a few spots on 3 different models. I don’t believe it was necessarily a support issue as there was 4th model in the back of this picture that printed out just fine. What’s even stranger was that I had a 2nd printer running next to this one and had something very similar happen. Different models but I had the same problem going across one of the layers of the print. And for those who will ask, I was using Anycubic Grey, 100s base layer exposure for 10 layers, 17 second exposure per layer.

Thoughts?

Anyone know where to find replace clips, like the little black, fragile bar that holds in a ribbon on this board in the Photon? I don’t even know what to call this thing to search for a replacement.

Regarding Monocure Pigment Dye, I was watching a YouTube vid from Monocure about how to use their dyes and noticed at the end they scroll a list of color “recipes” in the background. I understand how the mixing of CMYK can result in all sorts of colors, I just don’t understand the percentages listed in this picture. Some of them add up to well over 100%, so what the hell percentage are they of? Number of squirrels in a tree? Number of biscuits I like with my breakfast?

LCD Woes

I am having some issues with a new LCD screen I ordered and I am hoping that the group here will have some experience with it. The short of it is, I destroyed an LCD screen a few weeks ago and have replaced it twice. The first LCD I ordered was the wrong model ( the cable ribbon has no 90 in it) and I tried to make this work with my Photon, however it failed. I ordered a 2nd, and correct LCD but I cannot get that one to work either. The LCD will not display the rectangle when doing a UV test. I have tried resetting the printer back to its factory settings, then upgrading to the 4.2.14 firmware, but still no joy. I am going to try the 4.2.17 beta firmware tonight and see if that makes a difference. Beyond that the only thing I can think of is I did something to my motherboard. Have y’all had this issue before?

See attached pictures as reference.

Looks like I ordered an incorrect LCD replacement for my photon. I am still trying to get it to work but I am thinking this might be a lost cause.

Where is a good place to buy the Epax LCD screen everyone seems to like?

So this happened today. Not sure what to make of it so I will ask the hive mind. Long story short, I had a leak in a new FEP I put on the other day. Resin had leaked out and over about 1/3 of my LCD screen. Lucky for me I had taped up the sides of the screen so nothing leaked into the innards of the printer. It also leaked while nothing was printing, so no resin really cured anywhere. After cleaning everything off carefully and setting my zero lvl again, I ran a test on the UV light and got this. My pattern now has a "mole" in the top right. Not sure if it just appeared or if its been there a while.

My question is have yall seen weird little dead spots like this before? I am going to assume this will jack with any future prints until I get it fixed. What do you think my options are with this?

Confucius said “Best way for a man to double number of prints in day is to buy 2nd printer”. I may have a problem. At least I now have a small army of undead assholes to keep me company. ?

Hey all, new member with an interesting question. I thought I have been doing pretty good on reading up on common problems and questions about photon prints, but I think I found one I haven’t seen yet.

In a nut shell, up till now I have just been printing minis that require support of some kind. Today I started building the Emma iPhone stand from MyMiniFactory. It has quite a few small, precision parts to print out. I set a base layer of 8 like I usually do and started printing. This is my first time using no supports however. Everything was looking great, except now I have a noticeable layer stuck to the bottom of my pieces. Pretty sure this is going to cause some assembly issues when I finish.

When making small pieces like this with no supports, do y’all just zero out the number of base layers and print straight to the plate?

I have a friend that just purchased a photon. On his first two prints he has had the printer reboot in the middle of his prints. Has anyone else run into this?
