ANYCUBIC Wash and Cure Station, Newest Upgraded 2 in 1 Wash and Cure 2.0 Machine for Mars Anycubic Photon S Photon Mono LCD SLA DLP 3D Printer Models UV Rotary Curing Resin Box

This wash and cure has its place, if you print once every week or so, then it will probably be great for you. If, however, you do at least one print run a day then after about 2 weeks it will become your nemesis. Alcohol becomes fouled with resin when you wash. The nore often you wash the faster this happens. The resin held within that alcohol will settle out as the wash container sits creating a layer of sludge in the bottom of the container. If you wash by hand this isnt that big of a deal, with this wash station, its a major issue. The sludge gets swirled through the alcohol by the impeller causing problems with washing. To clean the wash container requires the impeller to be removed, not easy when the tiny allen head screw is clogged with sludge. Draining and straining the alcohol and cleaning the wash container is an hour long job, its messy, it causes serious cross contamination problems and with the depth of the container youre going to have skin contact with either the alcohol or the sludge. On top of all that, the basket is small but has massive holes, the frame that holds the build plate limits how much of the build plate you can cover and if your print is tall and you need to use the secondary support, then your build plate volume is further limited. The cure portion of the station isnt much better. The turntable is small limiting what can be placed on it, but it vibrates severely and has a tendency to vibrate small items off of it. While the light array is good, not making the interior of the lid reflective was an oversight. Making the interior of the lid reflective would have cut curing time in half and reduced the amount of flipping of prints that is required. There is nowhere to store the turntable either and its a part that Anycubic does not carry. If you lose it, youre just out of luck. Several people have designed brackets that hold the turntable, they slide over the light array bar, the do not block the lights during curing and they are flat enough that the turntable can remain stored while the was container is being used. Theres absolutely no reason for Anycubic to have not included some sort of storage system for the turntable built into the system. All in all thus system worked well for me for about a month, then the shortcomings started showing. Ive made many purchases since I started using a resin printer roughly 8 months ago and this wash and cure was the absolute worst purchases Ive made.

Very easy to use, and essential for SLA 3D printing. Works very well.

Excellent used condition. Works great.

This product is a must for resin printing. Very simple to use and works great!

I love it, no issues at all. Poured a gallon bottle of ipa and thats it.

does just what its supposed to and is a big help

This machine is perfect for cleaning and curing resin prints. The tub is magnetic therefore switching between washing and curing is a breeze. Works as intended. My only complaint is that the curing tray doesnt rotate smoothly and can cause prints to walk off the tray. I just put some scotch tape on the bottom of the prints and it fixes the problem.

I don’t know how I cleaned and cured my prints before this. This machine makes it so easy to wash, dissolve excess resin, and cure to a finished state. I can’t see me 3D printing without it.

This system changed the game for me, I was at a point where I was actively avoiding printing with my old setup because it was a pain. Now I look forward to using my resin printers :)

For $120 I was expecting something better than the $10 UV lamp I have... I let things cure in this for 10 MINUTES and still come out sticky. I use a $10 UV lamp and it cures better in 2 minutes than this CRAP!!! Unreal you charge so much money for something that is useless. Sending back
