Photon P1

That was my guess too, until the Anycubic P1 Max $900 pre-order. We know the J2 has a funky FEP quick swap system, but Anycubic have been dialing in their force sensors for a while now - and apparently have been cooking with the P1 Max, so the J2 has its work cut out if it only offers better FEP swa

Apparently we want a split plate because that’s what Anycubic is doing on the P1. And I see ‘we’ as in other people…

The tilting vat, and self leveling build platform especially have their drawbacks. The tilting vat causing weird failures, generally on prints with large cross sectional surface areas. And the auto leveling build platform just smushes the first few layers, so printing directly on the build platform

As an owner of small print farm I can trully recommend Anycubic P1. Due to special wave film on LCD screen it combines speed of M7 series and standard NFEB release film. Also it hase easy to swap LCD screen and fast swap release film (altrough its pricey) . For unexperienced users there is a lot of

The auto leveling is the big drawback. In your shoes, I would buy the Phrozen 12k or the Saturn 3 12k (both are currently on sale). If you have the money, the GK3T, hey gears (but only an 8k screen and locked ecosystem currently), the anycubic P1 and the Phrozen 14k are all highly regarded. 14k scre

The Kobra X doesn't move around. It feels fairly substantial to me, and you'd really have to push speeds that frankly bedslingers aren't capable of to get it to wobble like that. I've had mine for maybe about 2 weeks now and I love it. No bed issues, no Clogging, amazing! Top finish and overall the

I’m really happy with the Anycubic Photon P1. Automated leveling, easy printing.

What are your specific maintenance issues? Across 5 different printers, my Saturn 4 Ultras 12k and 16k are easily 95% of my printing because every other machine is more work. Particularly the ergonomics and low drip / mess is a big win over other machines which almost always need a wipe down after r

You're not getting anything special with the M5S. All of these machines are essentially the same tech. Other machines are capable of the same speeds they'd just need to be configured in a similar way. If I were buying a new machine right now there are only a handful I'd consider. They're all capable

I like the steelbuild plate, the wave release film, the fact that you can controll the heater temp, the plate holder built in the vat, the fact the vat has legs, the latching mechanism for the vat, I also don't like the tilting vat on the s4u, I like the 12k over the 16k screen because it doesn't ha
