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

Honestly thought about getting cheaper items and making my own but I’m glad I went with this the magnetic fan to keep your alcohol or detergent moving was an extremely nice touch I didn’t even notice before purchasing

This may seem like an extravagant purchase but it makes the finishing process so much easier! Before I bought this Station, I was using paint cans for the cleaning process and a make-shift box and light to cure... It gets done, but there are so many steps and I was always questioning if it worked: whether it was enough time or if the UV light had turned off too soon ... did it actually cure my entire print??? This all-in-one station simplifies the whole process and I only have to worry about designing my next print while it does the work for me!

I was on the fence, but being able to set the print, with build plate still attached, into the wash has made the entire process dramatically smoother and easier.

Good looking and easy to use machine. I’ve had my Anycubic Photon 3D printer for about 4 months now and have been printing like crazy. This wash and cure makes life so much easier. I can wash my prints right on the build plate, let them dry and cure right in the same machine. Saves space not to mention the amount of containers I was using before. This washes them thoroughly and cures them perfectly. If you want to make your printing process more streamlined, I can’t recommend this machine enough. If you’re just printing a few minis a month, then a few pickle jars will do the trick. But, if you want to print a lot, or print multi piece larger minis, this thing is awesome. It looks great and works great.

This Station is a godsend for your resin printing needs. I could not be more thrilled with my purchase.

Although Im pretty adept at FDM printing, Im very new to resin (SLA) printing. I knew when I decided to dive into SLA that I would want a nice setup for washing and curing my prints. I also wanted something that looked good too. I didnt just want a cardboard box with a light over it. I originally couldnt justify the price of the AnyCubic Wash & Cure, so I scoured Amazon for parts to make my own nice looking cure station. By the time I found a setup I liked, I realized that I was almost spending just as much, so I went ahead and bought the AnyCubic. Honestly, Im glad I did. This thing makes washing and curing so easy its worth the price. I set it up on my workstation with a silicone mat and some paper towels and I was in business. All I have to do is throw my build plate into the AnyCubic and the machine washes both my print AND my build plate (bonus). I also have the option of setting the print in the provided basket and washing it that way too. Once its done washing, I set my print on a paper towel, dry it off, swap out the container for the platform on the AnyCubic and set it to cure. PROS: * Can be used with just about any resin printer. It works just as well with my QIDI Shadow as it does for AnyCubics resin printers. If you have a super large print (like something that could be printed on the S-Box or the Saturn) you would likely have a problem with the size, but most prints will fit in this machine. * Comes with extras that allow you to wash on or off the build plate. * Seriously easy to use. * Timer options. 2, 4, and 6 minutes. For both washing and/or curing. * Stop button so you can stop mid-wash or mid-cure if needed * Excellent washing. I mean it, this sucker creates a tornado. It gets in those hard to reach spaces. And it changes spin direction halfway through the wash. * Safety - it only works when the lid is on. So you dont have to worry about being blinded by UV light if you accidentally start it without the lid on (ask me how I know) * Can handle any liquid. Ive used IPA, Mean Green, Simple Green, and Denatured Alcohol. It works great with all of them. (Denatured Alcohol works the best for me.) * Looks and feels great. It has a minimal foot print and can easily be placed next to the resin printer on an IKEA Lack table (you FDMers out there know what I mean, right?) Its also solid. It doesnt feel like cheap plastic. Not even the lid. * They have their own Facebook Group with active AnyCubic employees CONS: Not a lot, to be honest, but if I had to list any... * Longer time options. Maybe a 10 or 12 minute option added. * Fingerprints, ammIright? * Id love for it to be a tad bigger. Or hopefully have AnyCubic offer another larger-sized station. I plan to eventually upgrade to a larger resin printer, but Im hoping someone (*cough*AnyCubic*cough*) will come out with a good super-sized wash and cure station first. * Additional containers. Id love to have a second container to rinse my prints without having to swap out the liquid (they are already offering this in the Facebook group, and hopefully will be easily available on Amazon soon). All-in-all I highly recommend it. Its worth it. It really is.

This thing is great. It is SO much better cleaning and curing in one unit. Comes with replacement impeller bearing too which is handy.

The best way to clean and cure resin prints.

So easy to use! Made my prints turn out exactly the way I wanted them to. I was also surprised at how quiet the machine was overall! 100% would recommend. If you don’t have something like this for your prints you really ought to get it.

Been using this for a week now to wash and cure my prints and I have to say it’s fairly easy to use and the results you get are simply amazing. Iv been using mean green as a cleaning agent for my prints and I usually run the wash cycle for the max time. The basket with strainer makes it easy to take your parts out and dry. Once that is done you can pop on the rotating plate, place your parts you want to cure, shut the lid and set the timer. I found its best to wait for your parts to be fully air dryed before curing. I like to run the curing portion for 4 minutes as I found this gives the best results when using the anycubic gray resin. I would highly recommend this if your into resin printing as it helps keep you area cleaner and has multiple purposes.
