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

I print miniatures for my family and friends. This is the only kind of resin I use. And this works great.

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.

The print quality is as expected. I feel I needed to add extra time to the bottom layers to get adequate adhesion.

I purchased my first bottle and things printed good with the exception that I messed up my first couple of prints just learning how to orintate my supports. After I figured out how to do all that with the help of some YouTube videos I was off to the races printing nonstop with success on all my prints there after. I soon had to order a second bottle and well thats when the problems started. Failed misprint after misprint it is very discouraging and frustrating. I have releveled my build plate replaced my fep film and tuned it and still misprint after misprint. The resin isnt solidifying during the print cycle and is staying very gooie. Prints if I should call them that are only partly sticking to the base sagging and hanging into the resin vat. I have tried everything from releveling to replacing fep film and making sure its not to loose or tight. Ive tried increasing exposure times and everything else that is recommended for trouble shooting. This leads me to only think that this is a bad bottle of resin. I should mention that both bottles were grey resin and Ive noticed that the second bottle of resin is slightly different in color. I dont know if that has anything to do with anything just something I noticed. I have ordered a bottle of elegoo resin grey because Ive heard great things about this product. Hopefully things go well and confirm my theory of this bottle being defective. *Update I am updating my first review because I contacted anycubic directly on their website through their after purchase support team and let me tell you they responded very quick!! I explained to them everything that was going on and sent them pictures of what the prints looked like. I also just asked if there was a way I could get the bottle replaced. Not only were they easy to deal with but they gave me no problems and didnt even try to make excuses or beat around the bush. They sent me another bottle of resin and even asked if I had wanted to try another color. Not only did they send me another bottle of resin but they refunded my money back in full which was a surprise and very nice of them. I am very confident and comfortable buying their product knowing they take care of their customer base and care about the experiences we have. I would suggest to anyone that has had a problem with the resin to contact them on their website and they help in any way possible.

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.

Print’s perfect, no issues so far. Everything came out great !

Have printed 100s if not 1000s of models with the Basic Anycubic Grey, and will say this. It works really well with the Anycubic printers I own, I dont use other brands and honestly would stick with the printer brand-to-brand for resins etc. as I dont like mixing brands. Anycubic has a wide variety of colors, and types of resin including castable, water-washable, plant-based, DLP Craftsman, craftsman, basic and tough (like a rubber type of plastic). Each has its own unique abilities properties and SETTINGS. Please be sure and check the Anycubic site for details on each resin, and printer for the best settings.

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.

Just got an SLA printer last week so I’m very new to this. I’ve been using an FDM printer for 2-3 years though so I’m no stranger to the general process. The other resin I have is the Anycubic grey standard resin. I mostly print minis for tabletop games. The grey resin CAN produce really impressive minis however it’s very brittle. I’m reading that there are multiple “flavors” of resin out there with different physical properties (as with the different types of FDM filaments). My first print with this translucent green resin was the dinosaur skull. Unfortunately, at some point the top half of the skull, the way cooler part, fell off the supports. I realize there are many possible contributing factors so I’m not really knocking the resin itself but that was disappointing. I’m also irritated when people talk about the “low odor” of these different resins. Both I’ve tried so far are extremely smelly. I leave a window open right next to my printer and it’s still pretty powerful. If you’re interested in SLA printing for minis you basically have to print a gelatinous cube with this stuff. Super excited for that. I’m also going to try the Anycubic plant based resin. I read that’s good for minis. Overall the green is good but admittedly I don’t have a huge pool of experience to compare to yet.

This is probably the 4th or 5th bottle we’ve used and I don’t think I’ll buy another brand ! Prints perfect every time and it’s easy to paint !
