Anycubic Photon Mono X 6K 3d resin printer [HONEST REVIEW]

[@Kenagon]

Elegoo announced their Jupiter to be sent to KOLs, are you one of them?

[@vogman]

Well, I'm not sure I'm a KOL and I'm not sure Elegoo have forgiven me for the Mars 4K wobble incident yet ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/hqm8c5mNhcSmes0 ) . Regrettably I am compelled to tell the truth as I see it. If it's good, I'll say so. If it's bad, I'll say so. Now whilst I NEVER called the Mars 4K "bad" I was concerned that the Z arm wobbled. Many KZbinrs claimed it didn't happen or if it did, that it didn't effect the printing. Whilst I'd already said it didn't effect printing, my concern was the long-term implications. I guess if these others get Jupiters and I don't, then we'll answer both points... I'm not a KOL and I'm not forgiven 😂🤣😁😁😁😁

[@Kenagon]

@@vogman That is the main point I'd like to see your review)) The word "Honest" in the title is written in capital letters not in vain))

[@JohnJones-oy3md]

I can't believe that it's been 15+ months since the announcement of the Jupiter. Where does the time go?

[@vogman]

I use the word HONEST because I mean it. Others have starting using too now, I've noticed, though I'm not sure they fully understand the meaning of the word. 😉😁

[@nickh7777]

Which 4k is the same height? The X2? On Amazon it's saying the x2 is only a little over 7" in height...

[@Lychee3d]

Great review (as usual!). Of course, we will do our best to support the new Mono X 6K as soon as possible. And it may comes sooner than expected ;)

[@vogman]

Knowing the work you guys do, I've no doubt it won't be long at all 😁😁😁

[@vaughn.reynolds]

Hopefully soon! I love Lychee and its tough using other slicers now lol

[@alonalgr660]

There's a bug with Z height, are you guys aware of that? thanks

[@nolanrenfran6308]

If you pop your build plate into the freezer for around 15 minutes prints just pop off. I wash them first and put the plate on a paper towel to avoid getting resin in my freezer. Saw the freezer tip online somewhere, it works amazingly well.

[@brandonfrancey5592]

Since I'm the only one here so far, have you considered doing a 3d printer round up? A general comparison of whats available right now and recommendations of resin printers for beginners first printer, enthusiasts level and professional level? I wouldn't mind a software video of whats out there and options there may be for either creating or slicing. Either way, enjoy the reviews.

[@vogman]

That's an interesting thought. Thanks Brandon.

[@fablabmakerhub]

@@vogman Oh yes. An end of term report card would be fantastic. I fear Elegoo might get a 'Shows promise but could do better.'

[@Bakamoichigei]

I really wish companies would stop putting _screen_ resolution nomenclature in printer model names like it actually means something, instead of _print_ resolution. The Mono X 6K prints at the same resolution as the Mono 4K, and the Mono X prints at the same resolution as _the original Photon._ (Nominally, like within a couple microns.)

[@ianbottom7396]

I’ve given up on using the scraper for removing resin prints, I was given an old (but still very sharp) filleting knife and it works a treat, tip gets under the edges and then broader sections of the blade lever the print off effortlessly

[@vogman]

Nice tip 😁

[@HunterValleyDan]

G'day Geoff. Nice review again mate. Isn't it astounding how these 'budget' based hobby printers are producing such incredible detail. It wasn't that long ago, printers producing such detailed pieces were really only available to professionals and business. Incredible really.

[@vogman]

Very true Dan. 😁😁😁👍👍👍

[@karllautman]

That’s the reason I finally bought my own printer (a Mono X) after using Shapeways for years. It arrived a few days ago. I’m still awaiting my IPA before making my first print.

[@michaelpierson982]

I'll be staying away from the internet on the 15th, still happy with my MonoX4k. Now when the Photon Mono XL 8k, that will be a different story. Still a great review! Makes it harder to pass this round of upgrades. Cheers.

[@Mistertbones]

Geoff your reviews are the best. You pull no punches, and will call out anything that is good or bad with the product.

[@vogman]

That's my aim with every review... otherwise it's NOT a review just a yes-man (thanks for my new free toy) unofficial commercial, and I don't do those. So thanks for noticing. I appreciate the support 😁😁😁👍👍👍

[@bluepillaus]

try using a single sided razorblade to get your prints off the plate, it's like magic compared to one of those paint scrapers the printer companies send out with their gear. Almost zero force needed.

[@daimyo2k]

I have the Mono X... AWESOME printer straight out of the box. Price has gone down... great buy for a starter SLA printer!

[@saadjarrad8384]

another subject that worth to make a video about is choosing the right castable resin for jewelry ; maybe if you give a review for the best ranked NO 1 resin for this purpose might help a lot for those who are in this kind of work + showing the process (cleaning ; curing ; UV light...etc) in order to make the prints ready for silver or gold casting ; i can say this concerns me so much ; there are so many types of resins in the market and also many reviews about them ; and i feel i am lost with all this kind of uncertainty for how and what to choose for my work which is 3d prints for jewelry.......this is one subject right now ......the other subject is the printer it self ; i will post my concerns later on when it comes about choosing the best printer for our work (3d prints for jewelry )in order to have the best results that we want ; this is also a very important matter to all of us....thank you Vog.

Just got this for 180 because Walmart online has it on clearance, my first resin printer and I can't wait.

[@ateliepontelli1873]

My congratulations for the channel, for me it's the best youtube channel for 3D printers : ) Would you like a suggestion of your 3D printer for jewelry, which currently offers better print quality than those on sale? Is it the Anycubic Photon ULTRA 3D or Phrozen Sonic 4K ?

[@antronk]

It's still beyond me most reviewers nowadays don't do a rangefinder exposure calibration in order to assess the print quality

[@jackdeth245]

I managed to nab one of these in the second round of the pre-order. It'll be my first printer. Very excited!

Good job on the review. What we need a full tear down of both printer (4K-6k) and everyone get to see what is the actually difference.

[@vogman]

Plate adhesion will not be a problem here, that's for sure 😁😁😁

[@waterdonkey]

Creates great prints but just shortly after 3 month the LED quite working. $250.00 to replace means I might just go the DLP route and store this one until prices for the LCD go down.

Anycubic photon ultra X, will be my next machine

[@vogman]

I'm looking forward to seeing future incarnations on the Ultra 😁

[@Nightscape_]

Thanks for this great review. This is what I am going to upgrade to from the Mono 2, which is really nice but 40% or so of my prints are too large for the build plate; it is also great to get into 3D printing on due to it's small size but time to upgrade now that I got a handle on the hobby.

[@jbrou123]

I had questions about the 4K vs 6K, and you answered. Other than minor print volume and screen res they are the same. But the 6K prints higher detail than the 4K. Thanks.

[@Poonah]

Getting back into resin print after a long break, just in time to see you comparison viseo. Great work, thank you. May I ask what base coat did you use to spray the models with? Really brings out the detail 👍

[@CdoGtheGreat]

I pre ordered the phrozen mini 8k, I'm surprised they haven't sent you one for review. Can't wait to get it..

[@vogman]

You've made a good choice I suspect. The prints they're releasing look amazing 😁

[@saadjarrad8384]

love all your work ; please do some jewelry rings and few pendants (please to choose these levels of designs; some to be with less details + some to be with medium details with fine design +some to be with extra details with fine designs) also if it is possible to use the most proper recommended castable resin for that (BlueCast X-One Meltable Resin ; maybe !) or your best choice of resin....i am interested to see how the designs will look like after printing and that will help me to make a decision about buying the 6k printer or not...thanks alot Vog.

[@charlesballard5251]

Now I'm freaking out. I start watching this because the note says you just posted it "22 minutes ago". I start watching and about 5 minutes in I feel like I've seen this video already. Then you start pulling the city off the plate and I remember the base splitting and that tiny speck under your thumbnail. I have seen this vid... maybe a week ago or less. What's going on here? Now I'm going back to finish the vid.

Probably he released his review too early and, with Black Friday, Anycubic requested a repost.

[@SandyToesDetecting]

Saw this on the any cubic website today, looks interesting. I currently have a mega x and looking for better quality. I downloaded the photon workshop software. What I can see in it is the option of different resins. The sales blurb says it can handle 150 different types of resin. the software only has 1. how do you / where do you get the profiles for the other resins ? retail is showing as 599 USD but sold out at present.

[@3dtechnik]

A direct comparison of print results with the same resin would have been useful. Looking at the result of one model is nice, but the difference is not recognizable from this video. Don't get me wrong - I'm still a fan of your channel.

[@kaldo_kaldo]

Do you have a video on recommended accessories for a newbie getting into printing with a Mono X/Mono X 6K? I glanced through but you have so many videos. Also I'm wanting to get into resin printing specifically. I want something super high quality. Large built area is a plus, and reliability is a must. We have the price of the Mono X 6K now - I think it's worth it over the 4K. But is the 6K the right choice? Or is there a better option out there from a different vendor?

[@Robertkopp84]

I am a bit bummed out because I just bought the 4k version. It would be great if they can offer a 6k screen upgrade for the old mono x.

[@vogman]

I'm not sure about that one, but even so, the 4K is an excellent printer 😁

[@kelseyordaz830]

Thank you for thw review! It was very helpful

[@runklestiltskin_2407]

Started yesterday with my 6k and I already hate that checkered pattern, compared to the whambam on my mono X stuff either sticks like crazy or not at all, I had fails at 25s bottom layer exposure and stuff is sticking like crazy at 30s.

[@salvation7362]

3D printers are like toothbrushes. Every couple of months a "new and improved" one is released with something added to make you feel like you're using the wrong one.

Perhaps, but 8 out of 10 dental professionals preferred this brand of printer over the current market leader 😉😁😂👍👍👍

[@ikub58]

I don't get all the hate for chitubox, I've never had any major issues

[@vogman]

Some people have no issues with ChiTuBox and you'll even see it in some of my videos. But personally I find it VERY slow and buggy (regardless of the version). I have no problems with PC performance, but CBox throws wobblies on this PC and on another I regularly use. That's why I favour Lychee which I've found to be easy, fast and reliable. But if CBox works for you, stick with it 😁😁😁

[@schwabe73der97]

My Question may be off topic but, do you have this large figure only have painted with a thin layer of standard spray can primer after pulling away the supports, cleaning and curing? It looks ultra smooth. I havent painted anything in the past and handle with some white or cloudy places on my models. And btw. the Prints on the x 6k are marvelous. Your speech is gorgeous for a german guy like me. Thank you.

[@vogman]

A little patchiness of colour can often happen with prints, I know, but for me these were quite large. But the truth was they LOOKED worse than they were. The spray I used is Citadel Mechanicus Grey and I used just one thin coat. There has be NO OTHER sanding, filling, etc. Honesty is important to me so I declare everything I do so as not to confuse or misinform anyone 😁 So yes, the prints on the 6K are looking VERY smooth with very few layer lines that I can see. My plan is to do more prints and share them on Instagram, so time will tell 😁 Thanks for your comment 👍👍👍

[@user-pe8oo3xq3x]

Thanks for the review. Besides the quality, I want to know how fast is the printing. Could you tell me what is the height of the figure (with support) and how long it takes?

[@maxa.2860]

What is the configuration you use? Nice video!

[@Staryanuke]

Good to know they aren't doing the whole chitu board lockout BS. Great review as always !

[@vogman]

Agreed. It's good to know these companies are listening to user feedback 😁😁😁

[@Chefbigpp]

Should probably mention the Anti Aliasing problem. They promised to add it to the Mono X 4K but never did, and now they bring out the 6K which supposedly has it.

[@vogman]

Actually that's a fair point. I missed that one... To be honest it's been printing so well without any obvious layer lines that I haven't even tried.

[@karllautman]

The latest 4K firmware, v3.5.4, is supposed to fix at least some of the anti-aliasing issues.

[@metalmanexetreme]

what primer do you use? it seems to show good detail and i personally like it's shade.

[@EliteMinerZMC]

Would have been nice if the screen size was the same and the screen of the og mono x could have been upgraded to the 6k variant/ a upgrade kit

[@vogman]

I agree. But perhaps squeezing 6K out of the same screen area just wasn't possible. 😁😁😁

350 Euros vs the 260 of the Anycubic Mono X2..... It is hard to decide if the 90 Euro are worth the better screen.

I also have the Wash & Cure and use 99% IPA. The resin in the bin gets cured on the SS cage that goes in it. Have you had any of these problems?

are resin printers just for models or can you print functionable parts, whats the speed difference between fdm and resin and finally would there be a resin thats the same build volume of a prusa style. I might be asking stupid questions but carnt work out what to get for a total newb for making engineering bits.

[@timkuitems4431]

Is there an expected life for these LCD screens? Does Anycubic and Phrozen provide such a spec, or maybe a guaranteed minimum life? If the manufacturer's are silent on this matter, what have you - and others too - experienced in this regard? Would you care to provide a wide range WAG type estimate regarding screen life?

Are they making a larger size Ultra? I need a larger printer and it seems like projection printing is the way to go.

[@chavlaz]

Around the 3 1/2 minute mark it sounds as though you're suggesting the higher resolution screen will still print at the same quality as the 4k prints due to microns?

[@vogman]

That's pretty much it, yes. It's all about pixels per inch really. Lots of pixels in a small area gives you fine quality and vice versa 😁

Sorry to Phrozen, but that's an easy one. The Mono X 6K easily outperforms the 4K Mighty and Mono X 😁

When you say better than before, does that include the DLP printer you previewed?

[@vogman]

Nothing much is beating that little DLP in my eyes. This is close, but the Ultra just beats it. However, the 8K sonic might make a massive difference... we'll have to wait and see.

[@west1987]

Did the ethanol/IPA mix affect your print permanently, or did the priming resolve the blotchy issue? I have just inadvertently mixed a batch of IPA and meths!

[@vogman]

The print was unharmed, just blotchy, so discoloured I guess. Priming certainly sorted the issue. It's quite possible that mixing IPA and ethanol before cleaning would be harmless as, perhaps, if there was any discoloration, it would be uniform... I don't know. The important point is, it was a harmless result if priming and painting is the plan 😁

Do you see any difference based on AA which is available for the 6k but not yet available for the 4k? Also, would there be any benefit to setting the layer height to .03 to match the xy of .034? Sorry if the answers are obvious, I am just learning about Resin printers.
