Unquestionably yes. I have two s4u16k’s and a reflex rs turbo. The Heygears is hands down the better machine. It makes better prints with identical models and resin I use elegoo abs-like 3.0+ on the PARP10 setting at 50nm layers and it makes gorgeous prints. Sharp detail and crisp edges every time E

If I understand you correctly, you want to buy a printer before you know how well your models sell? Why not the other way round? There are 3D printing providers, who have all, the knowledge, machines, scalability and most importantly, everything else that is needed to finish the models. Print a few

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

The best consumer/hobbyist resin printer on the market right now is the HeyGears Reflex RS Turbo. They've got a really nice deal on them right now for Prime Days. Build quality is second to none and it will match or surpass the results of any others with minimal hassle. Stick with HeyGears resins, a

Probably to quit resin printing. It’s a pain in the ass, and that’s coming from someone who has bought his 7th resin printer just this week. They all have issues and are flawed in some way. The older Saturn 3 is less problematic as it doesn’t have problematic features like auto-leveling/force sensin

Yeah Anycubic long term support is ass. I own an M3 Premium and they ended support for them almost 2 years ago, yet I can still order parts (other than LCDs) for my Saturn 2s from Elegoo... which are the same age as the M3 Premium. Heygears is supposed to open up some of their settings later this ye

+1 for heygears. The Reflex RS Turbo is the best hobby printer on the market right now imo. With the slicer and settings opening up next quarter there’s no downside. Plus I’ve run a bunch of non-heygears resin using the built in presets and I’ve never had a failure yet

Hahaha dimensional accuracy with resin printing isn’t anything like filament. Especially when you factor resin shrinkage, orientation and supports. And that’s not even including the BS that auto-leveling printers introduce. I highly suggest (should be mandatory) to read Jan Mrazek’s blog for more in

I’ve been migrating over to the Heygears Reflex RS and replacing my Elegoo Saturn 4 Ultras and then my Saturn 3 ultras. The Heygears is a bit more upfront cost but the results are rock solid consistent and they’ve committed to having spare parts for the next 3 years which is important for me. I just
