ELEGOO Mars 4 Resin 3d Printer with 7 inch 9K LCD Desktop Grade Home High Precision 3d Printing Size of 153.36x77.76x175 mm³ Custom Model DIY

Product Information

Resin-based 3D printers are available in a range of sizes, from units small enough to fit on your desktop to large printers that have a build volume that rivals some popular FDM printers.

The Fresnel lens collimator enables a light angle of up to 5°, ensuring uniformity of more than 92%.This is because the resin more readily falls from the plate after a finished print, making it less mandatory to angle the plate. Overall, I think the market is settling on 4k being entry-level and 8k being premium for these smaller-class printers. I’ve been using Elegoo printers since the very first Mars printer came out and these machines have come a long way. I wish we would see more auto-level functions from Elegoo and the other manufacturers (as they are beginning to show up in resin printers), but this time was not it.

I understand that cheap supplies keep the cost of the machine down, but I would rather get nothing or pay more and get stuff that is ready to throw out upon arrival. Chitubox pro is more able to process and repair less than perfect models including closing small undesired holes. I hate that there is no feature to just turn it on when it is needed, but that is sadly standard in the consumer resin printers.

The Mars line of SLA 3D Printers has been a breakout success for Elegoo, now introducing the newest model; the Mars 3 in 2021. If the item comes direct from a manufacturer, it may be delivered in non-retail packaging, such as a plain or unprinted box or plastic bag. To test printing a larger model, I decided to go with a model of the Filleneum Malcon, which is not to be confused with the Millennium Falcon, because the dimensions fit well in this printer and I wanted to see how the details came out. Although it’s likely not that it’s not any stronger than sunlight, it is best to avoid looking directly at a UV light source or exposing your skin to it. Roughly speaking, printing at a layer height below the pixel size is not something I would recommend.
