ANYCUBIC 3D Printer Resin, 405nm SLA UV-Curing Resin with High Precision and Quick Curing & Excellent Fluidity for LCD 3D Printing (Grey, 1kg)

This is my first 3d printer. I was thinking long and hard before pulling the trigger. Having done extensive research, it came down to this printer and another resin printer. After getting the print bed level per enclosed instructions I was ready to go. Mine came with no resin which might have been my fault as there are two different packages. I contacted Anycubic and before long they set me up with a bottle of resin and a replacement FEP film. In the meantime, Id ordered another bottle of resin, I couldnt wait to get printing. The next day, after some tinkering and adjusting the print settings, I had a successful print on my hands. The print quality is amazing!!! I couldnt believe such a compact printer could produce such stellar results. The level of detail this printer is capable of producing is next to none. Over the last few years Ive been building scale models for a living and a tool like this will help me tremendously, especially in the scratch building department. A few tips that will ascertain successful prints: 1) Make sure the room youre printing in is nice and warm (~80F), itll make the resin cure better and the print wont stick to the FEP instead of the print bed. 2) Extend your bottom layers cure times if your prints are lifting off the print bed 3) Ventilate the area. I set my printer inside a spray booth I built for my models and extract the fumes out of the shop which helps a ton. In conclusion, I am extremely pleased with the purchase and Anycubics customer service. Definitely glad I took the plunge and got this nifty little printer.

I have used a few different resin brands and always find myself reaching for the Anycubic brands. It is a well-trusted brand and provides some quality prints. Just be sure to dial in your print settings as well as your post-processing and youll be happy.

I have ordered this product several times and have not been disappointed!

I will always pay extra for the quality that Anycubic has put into being consistent with their product.

I bought this to use in my Anycubic Photon, since I figured using their resin to dial in my settings was the smart bet. Take a tip from a newbie, you still need to fiddle with the settings to get things to come out right! Once I got my settings figured out, the prints from this resin come out super smooth (depending on settings), with great detail (Depending On Settings) and solid adhesion (DEPENDING ON...oh, you get it). The smell is definitely not as bad as a lot of YouTubers and hyperbolic websites would lead you to believe. The printer is in my wifes craft room, and has been in constant use since we got it, but she just cracked a window about an inch and was able to sew and etc. without much of an issue. We bought low-odor resin just to see how they compare, but based on my experience with this product, Im not too worried either way.

EDIT - I had a bit of a rough patch with customer service but they stayed in contact and have resolved my issue, plus a pledge to work on communication. Cant ask for more than that. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ While looking for other colors I noticed the reviews for the green claimed that dental resin was in the bottles marked as basic resin. I opened the box for the 1L bottle and this is what I found: The bottle was well-packed. Inside the box the heavy plastic bottle and cap were completely intact, surrounded by a tight-fitting air pillow. I shook the resin for about a minute and did the same with the remains of the bottle of green that came with my Photon. I poured a few ml of each onto a paper towel and I noticed the new bottles viscosity was a little lower than the sample, and it was a slightly lighter hue. I put both samples under my UV curing lamp and after 5 minutes checked them against each other. I was certain these were essentially the same resin. To be absolutely sure I did a test print. I took one of my USB drives from the supply box, inserted it into the Photon and loaded a file that was sliced with settings for the sample green. I checked on it after an hour and the print appeared to be proceeding as expected. This morning I took the fully formed print off the print plate and processed it as I normally would. I am certain I received the correct green resin. The model printed without errors, the details on the model are crisp and fully formed, as I would expect. I will continue to purchase this resin and I expect the same great results going forward.

Ive had some time to use this and other resins on 28mm miniatures and the like and have come to some conclusions that I want to share. Starting with price, by far best price for results I have found period. As far as resin adhering to the base plate, if your base plate is level and your settings are correct, this Resin is a winner. Detail comes out crisp and strong. Ive put my painted homemade prints next to my painted overpriced British minis and its very hard to tell the difference. The odor exists, but thats about the worst I can say. Compared to some of the others, that is a glowing recommendation. Now for the negatives. There is only one. This resin is very brittle. It is too brittle. Dont think about drilling and pinning or dropping, its a death sentence. I hope to experiment with resin mixes if I ever get my Photon back running (down 3 months). If I find a real, actual fix to the brittle issue I will share it. This is too good a product to write it off for one flaw.

I use this resin for 90% of my prints so far, and after I got a replacement printer, I have had mostly great results (except for personal mistakes I made on exposure times). I use a magnetic build plate on my Photon Mono X, and with 80% exposure, a large print has been best printed out with 60s Base Exposure and 2-3s Normal Exposure times. I have been able to successfully print a few smaller miniatures with around 1s Normal Exposure times. I have bought this particular one 3 times now, and will likely keep buying these as the last bottle gets low.

Its one of the cheapest resins out there and it gets the job done if youre just printing basic stuff. After using it twice now it has made me a lot of minis but I find that they are rather delicate and break easy. If youre on a budget this will do. But if you can spend a little more get Siraya, its 100% every time.
