Resin 3D printers have been getting bigger. We want larger prints. But can these larger models give us the quality we've come to expect from the small units? Well Phrozen sets out here to prove that they can.

I have the Phrozen Mighty 4K good to see they have a metallic resin tray. My 4k was out of use for 3 months and all the brass nut inserts in the plastic tray became loose. I had to melt out each nut insert (with a solder iron) and replace each FEP screw with a 30mm M4 bolt and nut. this also involved increasing the counter sinks in the FEP aluminum seal. I have just done a print which worked perfectly but hated having to modify a near new printer...

@@vogman if it helps any, usually if you take the corners of the blade and file them round (you can rub them on concrete floor, use a grinding stone, etc) they're less likely to catch/dig in and scratch something unintentionally when you're scraping with them. I learned this trick back in my car painting days when we needed to peel off masking tape or stickers and didn't want to damage the paint by having the knife dig in. Rounding off the corners of the blade always helped. Might be worth a try.

Great review Geoff! As always your honesty when reviewing products is appreciated. It certainly looks like an awesome printer and definitely produces a great print. I especially like the USB, WiFI, camera and Ethernet connectivity. It's just a shame that Phrozen didn't have the damn apps available to test the connectivity. Anyway, it still looks like a very good piece of kit. Now I've just got to see how much to get one to Oz. 🙄

Could you compare the print quality of Saturn 2 and Mighty 8K? It would great if you could standardize the testing a bit, so the printers are a bit easier to compare, since you are testing so many and seem to be a major resin reviewer 🙂. From the printing stand point I would suggest selecting a few models and sticking with them for all printers. Furthermore with each printer, try those models with manufacturer's recommended resin and some standardized resin, that you would use for all printers.

I've had this printer on pre-order for a while now and I really hope it ends up being as good as yours is in this video. It was pricey but I did get a bunch of discounts to use on it as well as get a few things for basically free with it like the 8K Grey Aqua resin and another space FEP screen. The only concern I had was the base plate with It's strange design but it didn't look like it would be much concern after you tested it out with a longer exposure time. That screen is really nice and so is the wifi / enthernet port. I just hope it was worth the time and money to get it as I have a bunch of Warhammer projects I've been wanting to use this printer with.

The plate issue could be me... things stick otherwise I wouldn't have been able to do test prints. But other plates have stuck better. If it irritates me too much, I'll either sand it flat or fit a wham bam flex plate. So relax, you've ordered an excellent printer 😁

It's interesting that you say the 8k resin is brittle. I found it to be, too (shattered my exposure tests on-plate) so I'm back to a mix with siraya tenacious. Though Black Magic Craft reported the 8k as very flexible. I wonder what was up with his batch?

@vogman 2 жыл бұрын

I have no idea if there are any toxic fumes. I doubt it. But some people do react badly to the smell. However, some people react badly to the smell of some perfumes. Personally I don't notice the smell, but I always have a window open and ensure plenty of fresh air. If you want to test your personal reaction, don't buy a printer, just buy a bottle of resin. Pour a little in a plastic or foil dish and leave it in a sealed room. Give it half and hour and walk in the room. 😁

The next Anycubic DLP will print a little larger than the previous model, but it's still not a mid-range printer (as these models are). The Anycubic M3 Plus is Anycubics replacement for the 6K Mono shrsl.com/3md2f and does have wifi, though the Mighty beats it just slightly on print quality.

I don't know your budget but here are some thoughts. The Ultra is fine, but the plate is a little small. It holds up well in comparison to newer 4K printers, but some of these have bigger plates. The Phrozen Mini 8K has a bigger plate and is still the best I've seen. The other brands have yet to catch up with it. After later the Saturn 2 and the Mighty 8K print almost as well as the Mini and give you much larger build potential.

Phrozen Mighty 8K LCD screen is made from plastic not glass. Whatever you do make sure you never get resin on it since it will eat right through it. This is not covered by warranty. Dont know how Phrozen manage to overlook the possibility of users having accidents and getting resin on the screen.🤨👎🏾.
