Saturn 3

Same as before. Expect 12 months between cycles. This year was odd, printers got released on a shorter cycle. The Saturn 4 Ultra 16K was probably supposed to be the Saturn 5, but Elegoo released it early (only 7-8 months after the Saturn 4/4 Ultra). Probably because Uniformation was releasing the 16

Generally speaking the Saturn 4 Ultra 16k is the best option for most people. I investigated and wrote the original post explaining the 3-bit grayscale deficiency and it is still present. I also bought a S4U 16k and subsequently worked out a dithering method with UVTools to restore a significant por

Believe me not much exciting has happened in the last 3 years in resin printing, get yourself an old new stock reliable printer with tons of community support and replacement parts, like a elegoo Saturn 3 or smaller mars 3, any cubic m5 or creality halot mage. No rocking vats or anything like that.

Elegoo Mars 3 Pro, Saturn 3 and Saturn 4 Ultra owner, been running them for the past 4 years +. (Starting slowly with the Mars and building up to the later ones. ) I use Chitubox Pro for slicing. Only had an issue once with a power switch pcb which Elegoo was happy to provide after verifying it was

TL;DR: It’s not the brand, they all suck, although Elegoo has remained popular for a reason. I’m up to having owned 7 resin printers. 4 of those are Elegoo, and I’ve owned a Phrozen and currently own an Anycubic (along with 2 Saturns). I’m quite critical of the resin printer market, but Elegoo has a

Anycubics are a larger gamble in terms of QC than Elegoo. A lot of M7s come with concave plates. On top of that, Anycubics can't use per layer wait times, so they have even more trouble with adhesion than other auto-leveling printers, especially with low cure depth resins (light colored/high detail)

I printed the door with my Elegoo Saturn 3 resin printer and no problem. The door works flawless. An excellent design job 👌👌👌

If the Saturn 3 (non-Ultra) is available to you, it's the best bang for your buck and last of the non auto-leveling printers worth buying. Usually less than $270. Heygears is running a sale on the Reflex RS for $499, which is the lowest that printer has ever been. It's probably the only auto-levelin

Right now, an Elegoo Saturn 3 (wife bought me it in the Christmas sale for £170) but I originally had an Anycubic Mono that was super reliable; just slower due to the smaller build plate. I got that for about £130 with the wash and cure station during a Black Friday sale a few years back. I use chea

I just bought my second resin printer today. Went with the Saturn 3 Ultra for a number of reasons. First of all its tried and tested. Same quality prints, its got fewer of the new fancy parts that always seem to have issues. And just overall buck for bang. Its on sale rn on elegoos site for 285$ whi
