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

Ive saved a lot of space in my garage using this, and the fact that it is so easy to swap between curing and washing is so good... The quality of life improvements is definitely worth it for people selling models constantly, as usually getting the uncured resin off is the hardest part (which this solves)

user friendly, and a great size. I love it!

I was blown away how extremely easy and effective this was at washing and curing your prints. Whether youre using IPA, mean green, or simple green, it does all the work for you. The rinse container has a lid with a rubber seal so you dont waste any rinse material. Also comes with a basket to use if you dont own an Anycubic or similar machines. Definitely a must for anyone doing resin printing.

I recently purchased an Elegoo Saturn and was looking for a decent wash station with sufficient capacity for the Saturns large build size. I was considering an ultrasonic wash station when I found the AnyCubic Wash & Cure Plus. Ive had it for a week now. It does a fantastic job of washing with water (for water washable resins) and IPA (isopropyl alcohol). I have several gallons of Mean Green on order and will try washing in that medium. Thats a whole lot cheaper than IPA. There is a button on the front panel that switches between wash and cure. The rotary switch allows me to select washing in two minute intervals and curing in one minute intervals. The wash bucket removes and a turntable slips into place. The turntable is built well and should handle large prints with ease. The wash bucket has a lockable lid to prevent the wash medium from evaporating. The vortex the impeller creates is quite strong. The impeller slowly revs up and after one minute slowly winds down and reverses direction. The best part is disposal. I run a curing cycle with the tank in place. The resin cures and can be dumped down the drain (for water) or for IPA, I let the resin settle to the bottom and pour off the clear layer. The remaining IPA gets poured into a bucket and left outdoors to evaporate. I had previously purchased a 40W UV curing lamp and made a ghetto curing station out of a cardboard box. Now I use the light to cure the gloves and paper towels I use when printing, so they can safely be disposed in the trash. I ran into two minor problems. The first was when I put the print bed in the washing station, it would fall into the bath. Retrieving it without exposure to toxic resin was difficult. I found some tiny clips on Thingiverse that snap onto the upper and lower basket assemblies. Now, the print bed sits snugly on the clips. AnyCubic really should provide the clips, but printing a set of eight only takes a half-hour. The second problem was that very small items slip through the basket and get pounded by the impeller. Im going to print a small basket on my FDM printer so I can hold little parts. All in all, I have no regrets for purchasing this station.

I dont have a lot of room for resin printing, and when I started to price out everything I would need to post-process my prints this product looked better and better every day. My resin prints were coming out great right out of the gate, but it just seemed sloppy using pickle containers for washing prints, and I didnt have good results curing in sunlight. I ordered this just a week after getting my first resin printer. I have my Anycubic Wash and Cure set up on a single shelf along side my printer. I can move the print bed off the resin printer and into the Anycubic very easily, and the wash cycle has not failed to clean my prints yet. I started out using Mean Green cleaner/degreaser, but am now using denatured alcohol instead (Im waiting for IPA prices to come down.) Swapping in the curing platform was a little tight at first, but the platform fits easier after some use. My only complaint is there is no safety or interlock that prevents turning on the curing LEDs when the washing tub is in place. I accidentally ruined one print when I had it cure mode with the wash tub in place and a print waiting for washing. User error, but maybe this could be engineered into a future version. Otherwise, its a great purchase if you want to declutter and simplify post processing of resin prints.

Neither the Wash and Cure 2.0 nor the Wash and Cure Plus is for the ANYCUBIC Photon M3. The Wash and Cure 2.0 is too small, and the Wash and Cure Plus is too big. I do not understand why they are selling the Wash and Cure Plus and the ANYCUBIC Photon M3 in a bundle on amazon or why Anycubic said in a Q&A that this would work. It clearly doesnt. The best option I have is to make my own bracket because they do not sell one. Waste of money.

Pros: - Easy to use via with clear information on the screen - Simplifies things dramatically vs manually washing and curing in the sun - Cheap: Much cheaper than similar machines (like the Wash & Cure from Prusa Cons: - Itd be great if I could have put my bed upside down in the machine without detaching the object for the cleaning part, but it doesnt work with my machine

This station is intuitively simple and looks nice next to my photon printer. It works well and has streamlined my print finishing. It is however a bit squeaky as the motor or bearing squeals a bit unpleasantly, getting loud at specific RPMs. Thankfully those offending speeds are momentary at ramping up or down and its less annoying at full speed. Id still recommend it as long as its placed in a room you dont need to stay in.

Man Im glad I picked this up! So Im relatively new to 3D printing, after getting a resin printer for the holidays by my company (Thanks!). At first I decided to save a bit of money by washing the prints in one of those plastic containers you get soup in from my local Chinese food place (After its been properly washed, of course). I got a water-washable resin and started my first prints. It was a disaster. The problem with washing the prints the way I did was that the resin that gets shaken off eventually settles onto the prints themselves, causing this weird artifact issue. Then getting the prints properly cured is sometimes a pain because finding a place with good sunlight can be a challenge in my house. So a friend of mine recommended the washing station. Initially I hesitated over the price, but after all the issues with the prints I decided to give in and get myself an early birthday present. Wow. What a difference! The machine itself is VERY solid and quite well constructed. I really, really like the interior metal basket design as I can place my print (Including the build plate if I need/want to) onto the basket and its completely and properly supported inside the plastic washing tank. The metal basket also gives you enough clearance from the fins at the bottom that rotate to swirl the cleaning material around. Its dead simple to use, with a single button that lets you choose from washing mode or curing mode. Note that the washing tank is large enough to fit anything that I can print, so there is enough space in all three axis to fit (For reference I have an Anycubic Photon Mono 4K). There is a solid rotating knob that lets you select the amount of time you want to set the wash or cure for, and when it is complete you get a nice loud audible pinging to let you know its done. The cure portion of the station is similarly easy to do. When you take off the washing tank from the station you can put the clear turntable onto the central knob, and put your prints onto the clear rotating table. Put the cover on, press the button to switch to cure mode, set the time, and press in the rotating knob for the time in and off it goes. Couldnt be easier, and does a fantastic job in curing whatever you printed from ALL angles. Overall, from a sheer convenience factor I am soooooooo glad I picked this up. Having a single place that I can handle all washing and curing is a huge deal and my prints have benefited greatly from this station. If you havent grabbed one, try it. It might be a huge time saver and a saver of your prints!

Ive had resin printers for a few years now, and stopped using them very often due to the limited size, and cleaning hassles. Like many, many others I made my own curing box and used a jewelers solar spinning display to cure my prints. This washer and cure in one is awesome! The tank is big, the lid seals tight and keeps fumes low. Spins and cures the prints after. You owe it to yourself. Total printing upgrade!
