Saturn 4

ACF has it's downsides, namely causing fine vertical lines on smooth surfaces. There was such a backlash against it, Elegoo stopped using ACF on new printers. No Mars 5 or Saturn 4 model uses ACF. nFEP/PFA however is a straight upgrade from FEP, and is cheaper than ACF. And yes, it uses the same ten

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

At the price point, the Saturn 4 Ultra 12k or 16k are $800-1200 of machine for $400-500. It and Heygears (at that $1200+ price point) do the most to absolve the user of tuning a dozen speeds and feeds for the Z-axis movement / release & retract cycle. Heygears does this by having their slicing and p

I see that a Elegoo Mars 5 is 160€, and Saturn 4 is 280€. The Mars is basically a smaller version (ie smaller build plate). Both are pretty good deals. But please note that you need to get a lot of equipment besides the printer, both for safety and post processing. You are not getting away with ~200

Resin in also 3d printing. They are most definitely resin. Elegoo Saturn 4 ultra 16k and don’t even look elsewhere.

That's what I was thinking. I dont know if it is the water washable resin or what, but my wife and I started with resin printing with the Saturn 4 Ultra, and it prints amazing detail with out of the box functionalities. It generally either fails to print entirely or prints beautifully. Larger pieces

I'll just assume it bots or something, but for whatever reason, this thread is just filled with wrong answers. Well, technically the Wait time before print suggestion is correct, but is still useless because it fails to provide any guidelines for settings or why it works. Rest / Wait time is why you

I like my Elegoo Saturn 4. I'm not going to say it's best, but I will recommend it. But I'll also say, for me personally, chasing GW sculpts proved to be largely a waste of time. It's a bit of a struggle to find, and I find a lot of the sculpts out there for GW knockoffs are.... fine. They work and

Currently have 12 resin printers running Elegoo Mars 5 ultra and Saturn 4 ultra are the 2 newest I have and work great.

Ignore Hupdeska, they are constantly posting BS without knowing what is going on. Normal for early / base layers on the S4U to pop the spring floated screws, but it is not the best for the LCD lifespan. It's the build plate being forced up by the tilt release return, and usually some base layers whi
