Anycubic Photon Printer Owners 造訪社團

It would be nice if you could have variable layer heights with this, like you do in simplify 3d for FDM. I mean you don't need max resolution for the first 5 mm of supports your printing. Be nice to print at 0.1mm layer heights for the 1st 5mm or so, the goto 0.05mm(or whatever your desired layer height) from that point on.

Little off topic, still loving my photon no problems in over a year. But a bigger build space is needed for a future project. Been looking at the EPAX X10 since they announced it, anyone here have one? Any first hand experience or info? Anyone not familiar with it this is the one. ?

Could somebody help me on setting up the Prusaslicer software for the Photon? (maybe so guide or screenshots?)

New to the hobby, and struggling with why, when, how many supports to use... and the auto-generator of the prusa slcier should be good as i read everywhere.

So... what may have caused this? I have four pieces on the print bed and three of them came out like the second photo (they way it’s supposed to) but I had one go rogue on me (first photo)

Thx

Hi..
Sometimes that happens to me. The model base stars to release from the platform. Maybe because of the printing piece weight.
Do you have any solution for that not to happen again?

Okay guys, I got 3 Printers and all of them are having issues! I know what's needed for Printer #1(new LCD) so lets talk a bit about Printer #2! An OG Photon.

It's been a good workhorse for awhile now but I'm getting some weird behaviour out of it, not print failures as you might expect. I'm getting resin residue on the LCD after every print, easy enough to scrape away of course but it's not like the FEP has a hole in it or anything as I've just recently replaced it.

I'm also getting resin curing on the FEP, the weird thing is that this isn't due to failures, the parts still print out and where the resin cures on the FEP doesn't seem to always line up with where things are being printed, and isn't consistent between prints, even when using the same file.

Last but not least, the actual prints are also being affected as per the first picture, the bottom side(facing the build plate) has all these little random resin flaps sticking to it. As with the Resin Curing to the FEP it's not consistent between prints with the same file. Also the tops of the prints (facing away from the build plate) are a bit "muddy", some of the detailing isn't quite as sharp as I'd expect as per picture #2, with the left print coming from Printer #2 and the right print coming off my 3rd printer.

One last thing, I tried updating from 4.2.3 to 4.2.18, and when I run the UV Exposure test(which I do before every print) it shows a fail, bunch of mildly flickering lines about 2/3rds of the time, while back in 4.2.3 it still doesn't show any issues.

So seems like the LCD might be on it's way out from what I can figure? What do you guys think and thanks in advance!

Been loving the quality of this printer so far, but having some annoyances with my prints. I keep getting areas that have like a globs of resin. Seems to happen in the support areas. Like Rick and Morty look great from the front, but had a big glob in Morty's hair, I sanded most of it in the pick. Same deal with Rick and the back bottom of the lab coat, and legs. The little sword I made did the same around the handle. The side opposite of the supports is perfect, while the back side seems to have like an extra layer of resin on it. I gets the points where the supports touch the object will need some touchup, but I shouldn't be getting those thick globs. Could this just be the nature of clear resin? Or maybe my exposure times need adjusting. I been using the Prussia Slicer to add supports, then slicing in chitubox, and running the photon validator. Any suggestions?

I have a Photon being shipped now. I need to iron out venting... I can buy a generic flange for the 4" tubing I have, but would rather get one that bolts onto the existing photon unit... I've heard on youtube that there are 2-part vent flanges that can be printed ON the Photon... Does anyone have a link?

Thank you.

Hi guys, After succeeding to tight my build plate, i tried to print this test model ( https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1219068 ) with these settings because my room is kinda cold (16-17°C).
The print is finished but i have some issues : elephant foot on the base (we call it like this in FDM world, i dont know it's the same name for SLA print lol) the size in not correct, 10mm large, 10mm long but around 9mm high, everything looks "compressed" Do you have any idea to solve these issues ?
Thank you so much for your so precious help ?

Just tried elegoo grey for the first time. Printed an excellent millenium falcon. Detail is unbelievable and it never smelled. Odor is less than anycubic eco resin believe it or not
