Reflex RS Turbo

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

There are maybe 4 or 5 good quality affordable options right now but each has a downside. These are the models I’d consider & why I’d be hesitant. Heygears Reflex RS Turbo - too locked down and upgrading for the heated vat is an extra expense. Messy flat build plate. Anycubic P1/P1 Max - I’m unsure

The closest thing to a Bambu in resin is Heygears. The M7s main problem stems from auto-leveling and not having the tools to deal with the downsides, namely per layer settings and any sort of Z adjustment. The M7s other main problem is just Anycubic's poor QC. All of the auto-leveling printers on th

Return to the Saturn 2/3 formula... Saturn 3 with the amber 8K LCD. Fix AA, especially with GOO. Built in heater, chamber heater probably so it warms the build plate as well. Nice to have: flip UV cover. I help a lot of people troubleshoot printers, and there's been a lot of that ever since the Satu

Dimensional accuracy means different things depending on what you value. Reflex RS still has issues with Z axis compression for example, and you can't fix it. You also are locked into the settings they pick for their resins, which means some resins only have 50um layer height settings and some have

Well shit. Guess I’m holding onto my S2s for even longer than I thought. Might also explain why Heygears still uses an 8K LCD on the Reflex RS. Also not a good look for Concepts 3D as they’ve tried to position themselves based on technical expertise and yet they moved the Athena 2 from a 12K LCD by

Uniformation is having just as many issues with QC as the other manufacturers now, but cost twice as much. The GK2 is an antique (was dated in certain ways from launch) and can’t set Z offset in anything smaller than 1mm increments. GK3, haven’t seen many people with the midsize GK3. I do know someo

Saturn 2 is better than many newer printers for what you are trying to do. How well tuned are you? Are you using UVTools to apply wait times so you can use lower burn in times? You should be able to get down in the sub 10s range, or much less. I regularly have gotten in the 5s range. Have you calibr
