Not a polariser on the screen, it's a screen protector. You applied a screen protector on top of a screen protector. The protector is applied in the factory and the one included is a spare.
i was wondering, thank you
Hi, do you have proof of that? in manuals i only can find that it is mandatory to remove safe stick from screen, but nothing about screen protector.
@@superyarik IF YOU READ IT CLEARLY TELLS YOU THERES A SCREEN PROTECTOR ALREADY INSTALLED FROM FACTORY AND THE OTHER IS JUST AN EXTRA. THESE GUYS MADE A BIG MISTAKE BY TELLING PEOPLE TO INSTALL THE EXTRA PROTECTOR LOL AND IF YOU TAKE THE TIME YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE THE SCREEN PROTECTOR ON THERE
LOL YA THESE GUYS NEED TO READ THE MANUAL BECAUSE IT IS ALL EXPLAINED IN THERE THAT THERES AN EXTRA ONE AND ONE ALREADY INSTALLED FROM FACTORY. JUST SHOWS THESE GUYS HAVE NO CLUE WHAT THEY ARE DOING
Thanks for your feedback. We don't read the manual before we unbox as we want to have an honest review.
There's no way I would operate that without a screen protector. But I appreciate the review!
YOU Aare wonderfull .. Thank you so much and Cheers to Everyone at Monocure. What a GREAT video. ❤🙏
Thanks!
ATTENTION there is already a screen protector on the macchine the guy on video aplies a second screen protector on top of the factory one , the second screen protector in package is a spare part !!!
Thanks
Ok - time for a new series: Man vs Box! Full length unedited footage of Charlie struggling to unbox oversized printers entirely by himself and while trying to present to camera! Optionally, a commentary track with Charlie and John 'reacting' to the footage would also be good :P
Great idea!
If you place the FEP down flat on something it becomes crystal clear the closer you get. The frosted FEP does not “disperse or diffract the light. My figures bear this out.
Agreed.
12:08 Having jut received my Photon M3 Max, it appears that mine already came with a screen protector installed. Is this a new thing? Because...following your instruction, I've managed to completely bork up the screen by installing a second screen protector, complete with dust and floaty cat hair....
What performance upgrade is achieved by getting away from plastic knobs?
it looks like there is already a screen protector there. already pre applied and that is the extra screen protector.
bending the prongs of the autofill sensor would mean that when you are removing the vat the sensor prongs would be in the way.
I never use the pump on mine. I can also tell you I never drain the resin (I always use water washable.) Left some in for 7 months and it still worked fine, you just have to mix it up in the vat with the plastic blade as the components separate, but then it worked fine.
Thanks 🙏
I knew he didn't know what hw was doing when threw the levelling sheet that's measured to give a perfect level. Also the feeder fits in any bottles that are standard, anycubic, elegoo etc.
Our bottles fit in the feeder too - just need to remove the tamper ring to get the best fit.
I love the video! Thank you I learned so much, but I would advise not to bend the autofill sensor down to match the max fill line, because its set to take displacement into account when the buildplate is down in the resin and the resin level rises up.
Not to the "MAX" line of course, but in my case bending it a little bit was needed: I filled the tub right to the MAX line and the platform stil didnt displace the resin enough to reach the contacts
Great point!
Hi guys,
Great video. I’m interested in those metal tops for the vat screws.
I would be grateful for the link - thanks!
fepshop.com/shop/parts/anycubic-resinvat-screws-photon-photon-s/
what was your exposure time and all the other print settings for the models
Great Video!
Good video and thank you for getting to the point. I tried to watch a video from someone else and it took them over twice as long to say the same thing. I hate that. I am subscribed.
Thanks! I’m glad we could help.
Anycubic Photon M3 Max questions for any kind soul please:
1. What frequency is the FEP supposed to be tuned to?
2. Does the FEP spacer still require the "13mm" bottle cap depicted in their official FEP Replacement video or is the M3 Max a different calibration? (I have seen some 19mm spacers from users.)
3. What is the torque setting for the screws on the FEP sheet?
4. Replacing the Glass under the LCD left a gap on one side is there a way to combat this? As the adhesive strip needs to be as far out of the print area, and on the perimeter as possible.
5. Anyone able to fix the touch screen not responding often?
Generic Questions:
1. Does anyone consider that the FEP has to be the same temperature as during normal operations while installing the new sheet? I'm sure temperature has some (if negligible) difference?
Can you please send this to our support email. So it can be answered in more detail. Support@monocure3d.com.Au
thank you for this video !!
No problem! Thanks for the positive comments.
which set did you use to be able to print 2 cm high in 20 minutes? I can't get below two maybe it's the new firmware can you share your set and firmware?
Ho lo stesso problema . Anziché 2 ore come indica lo slicer ne impiega 6 e mezzo . La saturn stampa in meno della meta del tempo
Adjust your layer height and speed settings to make the print faster
were is the best website to shop for printer parts? I'm happy with the vat since you have to put whatever you don't need back in the bottle it sure is a mess when you are poring, happy with my printer, I'm printing carbon fiber on my other Criality S-105 exterior car parts is there another printer Anycubic that could do the same I haven't shop around or ask, too busy
Www.monocure3d.com.au
Really cool video! But wait, where's the aluminium knob link again?
Did you ever figure out the link they said they was going give in the video?
I tried a first Print, came out GREAT. the second print, even though I thought I hollowed it right, was way too heavy and broke off the supports half way, since it was much bigger in size than the test print. after that, I have not had much luck. best resin to use with this sucker? also, do I need to install a tiny heater in it to get better prints?
Depends on the resin. Normally heating is not required
Just got one of these. What is the best option for wash and cure for large solid prints? 9+ inches across. Ideas welcome
감사합니다. ❤❤❤
👍🏻
👍🏻
Thank you for the video. It gave me an good overview about the printer I just bought.
Did you test several resin types? I am still looking for a good one. I tried Eco UV resin with my Anycubic DLP Ultra. And I liked it.
We only tested our Monocure 3D resins.
Hi man, goot printing wanna know if U can share setting U re using on your M3 Max exposure, lifting speed etc... thx a million
Settings can be found on our website!
Thanks for making this video. It makes more practical sense that they just made the vat deeper so that it can hold more resin rather than having that fiddly auto refill gizmo, which as it stands fits only 1kg bottles.
Agreed!
@@Monocure3DProTips and it looks like they did with the new M3 Premium
How would you empty a vat that big? I would worry that the fep have a hole 😅
@@phongle1772 Just tip it at a corner to pour the resin out or if you are afraid, use a large syringe to suck up the resin. As for leaks, it very rarely happens as long as you check for stuck resin on the FEP / build plate if you encounter any fails. Leaks are usually caused by resin debris being pushed down into the FEP because they were not removed. FEP doesn't usually spring a leak spontaneously.
Great video! I have an issue that maybe you can help me with. For some reason my Max is printing all layers at the bottom exposure time. Firmware is 3.05 even the test prints that come on the USB are acting the same way. This is my second machine I thought the first one was defective. I look at the settings on the machine and bottom is at 30 for 6 exposures and normal exposure time is 2s I also turned of exposure compensate
🙏
What is the solicer called?
thank you for making the video. how do you adjust the auto feeder mine nearly over flowed.
Just bend the pins down into the resin a little more.
I cant seem to get my settings right for the anycubic photon m3 max besides bottom exposure and normal exposure what are your basing settings in chitubox?
This would be resin dependent. I always recommend you print a calibration model first and dial in your printer. Check out our UNICAL calibration model on our website under the resources menu.
Great video. Thank you.
Thanks
I can not get my printer to zero out to home. It is level, when I run it to home to zero out it keeps on going! Did I just waste 1,000+ dollars? I can not find any info or trouble shooting if this happens. I am not a novice and this thing has been a headache from the start! I need some HELP! PLEASE!
Check with Anycubic they might be able to assist.
If you flood touch panel with a resin and the residues gets cured, you may damage it and currently it is out of stock. Technical support does not know if they will ever have it.
Thanks
i received my ptinter and the yellow lid is broken they only offered me 20$ compensation and there is no spare parts....
Terrible customer service!
I have two M3's and I cant get the auto feed to work on either of them! lol
They are not great. Dont bother with them
Hi! Great video! It is possibile that on my Anycubic Photon M3 Max the screen protective is already mount? And i've another one for replacement?
Does the film on the screen have a sticker to say remove?
@@Monocure3DProTips yes It had and i removed It...
Does anyone know if you need to place down the sticky strips between the glass and LCD when replacing the LCD for a M3 Max?
I had a LCD go bad on M3 MAX. When I went to remove the screen it had the sticky strips between the two, but the video (that anycubic sent me) of a LCD for the mono x being replaced. It WASN'T held down with sticky strips, nor did they put any down when placing the new LCD down.
I would replace what was there and not rely on the video from Anycubic
Any help with "cloud" or remote printing with the m3 max? I saw no instructions from manufacturer
The Max doesn't have an Ethernet port or WIFI, there is no cloud printing.
Never tried it sorry!
la mia venia con el protector de pantalla ya instalado. Mine came with the screen protector already installed.
ani tambien yo creo que el tio se lio en el video
Thanks
Hi! Tengo una duda, noté que la calibración en Z la hacen directo con el FEP. Porque es mejor hacerlo así y no con el papel?
tengo las misma duda. :(
👍🏻
Hi , i'm trying to calibrate photon M3 Max with cone test but complete unsuccessfully ( change exposure time off from 2.0 to 1.0 ) , i wish try with this test showing here . where i can download it ?
any suggest for calibration procedure is really appreciate to understand why i'm not able to do it ..
Hello, I was wondering if you can help me with something. I got this printer a while ago it was printing fine until today. The prints are coming out half done and some are falling off the bed. I level it, checked the up light and clean it but it stills does the same Do you have any advise for me? Hope to hear from you soon.
Sorry I’ve only just seen this - have you got it sorted now?
@@Monocure3DProTips yes I have, but if you still have any info you have I would still like to hear them.
I also have that machine, worked great until i got wrinkles in the fep sheet, ordered nee feps. What tension do you suggest? ( any specific hz?)
🤓
Do they happen to make a vat with a clear glass bottom yet?
The FEP film has to stop the cured resin from sticking to it. The material is similar to the Teflon used in a non-stick pan. Since it can flex this also helps the model release. The early SLA printers used a PDMS silicon layer to do this job but the vat was hinged on one side to it would tilt instead of flex. The FEP is a much cheaper and more efficient way of achieving the same result. Unfortunately resin will stick to glass and wouldn’t work well at all IMO.
What settings do you use for chitubox? I just got the printer and its not printing after the support print.
He sounds really like Rowan from Viva La Dirt…
😂
Are you/Did you end up designing a custom moncure product for this pump system for 5L monocure bottles I would be very interested in that?
why the calibration directly with the fep and not with the paper?
Paper can be different thicknesses better to do with the FEP
@@Monocure3DProTips ....says the people that put a screen protector on top of a pre-installed screen protector, and won't update their video to note that.
What is the link to the replacement vat hold down bolts? I have an older Mono X that had the plastic knobs break so would like to replace those and the ones on the Max. Thanks.

Segun las instrucciones, éste video NO es correcto, primero, el manual dice: utilize el papel que viene para tal fin; segundo, el screen protector es para reemplazar, la máquina ya viene con él instalado!
Never ever level on a fep sheet any dust particles can damage it. This guy is a perfect example of someone that doesn't know anything about resin printers.
We have been using resin printers since the first form 1 was launched on Kickstarter. I wouldn’t be too worried about dust particles damaging FEP sheets…
What was the retraction speed
150 from memory
Just got my m3 max unboxed and the z axis isn't moving...I'm so disappointed. The anycubic support is non existent...
Bad news. What's it doing?
- Rusty rails
- Cracked rear window
- Flimsy noisy front metal panel
- Buggy screen
- 10sec freeses at lift and retract
- Normal 5h print is 25h due to stutter
- Pump screams at power on
- Pump literally sucks, in reverse
- homing sometimes compresses the screen for no reason, risky.
Anycubic sold us a 1000$ trash can.
I'm so pissed.
They act like its nothing.
I’m getting nice prints from mine at the moment.
nothing about wifi setup !
Using water was the worst idea. Make sure it is distilled water if you want to follow the instructions
Thanks for the tip.
These bozos refused to update their video! The M3 Max has a factory installed screen protector. The video shows them installing a screen protector over top of a screen protector. Don't do that! I wish they would update their video.
@@jlbutler thanks for your comments. Unfortunately UA-cam doesn’t allow you to update videos. They have to be deleted and reposted.
@@Monocure3DProTips its called posting a new video...
No Wi-Fi…..??? No thanks…
They seemed to have moved away from wifi - the new Mono X2 doesn’t have it either.
Hi there, I just scored this model and am anxious to begin. Can you advise me on the correct program to use to set up my 3d models for printing? Thanks so very much.
Download Lychee or Chitubox for preparing the models.
