ANYCUBIC standard resin

I've been using Anycubic Green for 2 bottles now, as well as Anycubic Skin and Grey, and they're all really good resins. I think the Grey is my favourite. The Green is the "control" with it churning out great prints when I was just starting with very little effort or knowledge on exposures or supporting/orienting miniatures properly. Now that I know what I'm doing, I find the Grey to be a better resin for minis...seems a bit less brittle, but generally the end result is about the same once it's all painted. The attached photo shows a huge 15cm high Demon King by Artisan Guild, printed in parts in Anycubic Green. Every piece came out perfectly. It glued together well. I use Gorilla Gel Superglue which works great. Everyone talks about the smell...well yeah...there is a smell, there's no getting around that other than building a fume cupboard or filter system. The Green was the worst for that, but it wasn't as bad as some people make out. Different people have different sensitivities to it, and for me it was ok. The Skin and the Grey are about the same...less smelly than the Green but still a smell to them. It shouldn't stop you from using them. Every resin has some smell to it, it's part of what they are. I have mine set up with some ducting that routes out through an open window, and an inline fan which pulls all the smell outside, and that gets rid of 95% of the problem. There's a Thingiverse design for an adaptor to connect the rear exhaust to the ducting tube. So it printed its own solution! :)

First impression: 📦 The resin comes well protected in a cardboard box and a plastic protective jacket inside. The bottle is dark plastic and as with all UV resins, is light proof and a tough bottle. 👀 I am using this resin with an ANYCUBIC Photon Mono 4K printer. It pours well into the printer tray and I used the printer in the garage and left it to get on with its process overnight. I wore a respirator and mask and although the odour is not great, I minimised my exposure as much as possible. You need to make sure that you don’t get the resin on your skin and I was fastidious in that regard, and all the utensils got a good clean up afterwards and blast of UV. What I liked: ✔️ The resin works well with the 4k Mono printer as you would expect and produces hard and durable models with fine detail. ✔️ After and IPA wash I cured the prints with UV and the resin can be sanded easily, and support struts break away well with side cutters. ✔️ I have had some of the prints both painted and in raw for a while now and the resin seems as firm as day one with no creep in the detail or structure of the larger pieces. ✔️ Cleaning is never the best part of the printing process but the resin cleaned off the printer tray and build plate well. I filtered the excess back into the bottle and resealed it. I am going to try and light cure my IPA residue to clean this up further. Anything I didn’t like so much: ❌ Nothing specific to this resin. Conclusion: ✅ This resin gives great results and as someone relatively new to 3d printing I has happy to use the product recommended for the printer with my first forays. I would happily buy the resin again and perhaps try out some other colours as needed. I am just waiting for some cooler weather to keep on printing. Thanks for taking the time to read my review, I hope you found it helpful.

Nice colour. Nice finish. My 'go-to' resin.

I used the grey and mostly the clear resin (about 40+ liters) with different printers like elegoo M2P, Saturn & Epax E10 (2.5sec) and the print quality is good. All the failed prints were my fault when the support failed or old fep, cold environment (an air heater can make miracle really) This is my go to resin because it is the cheapest (unfortunately not here on A.) and mixing well with siraya blu clear v2 if I need a stronger piece. The color is definitely yellow (more uv/sun = more yellow) but I don't care the color.

I've been using the Anycubic Grey resin with the Photon 3D printer for a while now and I very much like it. Works as it is supposed to and very rarely do I get any failed prints, the times I have it's usually because I didn't configure things properly in the settings. I'm now on the 2nd 1L bottle and will continue to use it. I've printed it with varying settings ranging from exposure time s of 8-12 and the resin happily handles either without a whine. The grey colour is suitable for the application of railway modelling as it is sensible and you can see the shadows and details much easier, the yellow colour in the photographs is a model AFTER a quick blast with primer to see the details even clearer. The resin prints to a very high resolution, even showing the polygonal facets on the base of the dome on the tank engine. The fact that it is showing up these small details proves maybe the model needs redesigning a wee! Good stuff, recommended. :)

This review is for the Black resin in 1000ml volume. Firstly, the date on the bottle is the manufacturing date, NOT a use by date, some people reviewing this think it is a use by or expiry date, which is not true. I have used this resin, in other colours as well as the black, and it prints great, is stronger than some and I suffer less failures with Anycubic resin compared with other brands I have tried. Solids are important in resins, and this resin is high solids, some others out there are less solids, more solvents... Solvents evaporate and solvents do not make solid objects, solids do. So this resin in great value for money because you will print more items from the same volume of resin than some resins on the market. Like all resins, you need to set your machine up properly, this includes leveling/tramming as well as exposures, if you do not understand this, watch some youtube videos which will explain it. Also like all resins, you need to use different settings for different brands and even different colours by the same brand (remember, resins cure with light exposure, and different colours absorb different amounts of light - simple) Anyway, this product is great, I have tried just about every other brand out there, and this one is reliable, repeatable, and good value for money. Happy printing!

This colour seems to print better than the green which comes with the printer. Had the usual errors in the beginning so here are some tips: Use the Flint Reed method for zeroing the printer. Use thin support rafts near edge of an object. This makes life easier removing them. Thicker rafts are OK when not touching print object. Always shake the resin before pouring. Guessing I had a couple of failed prints for not doing this one. Large flat areas that are not actually on the print bed will suffer pooling and distortion. This can be avoided by printing object at an angle or by putting a lot of supports on the flat area so it doesn't sag and distort the print as much. The scraper that comes with the printer is very soft and will get damaged trying to get these items off the print bed. Using an extended raft that is very thin will offer better grip during printing but also offer a weak point where you can get the scraper without damaging it as much. I currently keep that scraper for cleaning the tank and a raft of green which was a piece derived from a failed print was also a perfect scraper for lifting parts off the print bed. Pricing is a bit steep for resin so I gave 4 stars instead of 5. Success rate using green was about 1 in 3 but with this black, I have had 5 out of 5 success so far today so really happy after having the printer now for only a week Settings I used were: Layer thickness 0.050 Normal Exposure 8 Off Time 1 Bottom Exposure Time 90 Bottom layers 3 Z Lift 6 Z Lift Speed 3 Z Retract Speed 3 Anti Alias 1 Not much change from standard. I could have increased anti alias but kept it at 1 as detail level is still excellent. Overall really happy with this colour. It isn't 100% opaque but objects come out looking really nice. I will certainly buy this one again although I will shop around for better prices. I got the printer direct from Anycube for way cheaper than Amazon and many other items have been price hiked up to 200% due to the lockdown.

I've had my resin printer (Anycubic Photon) for nearly a year now..and results have been mixed. I usual buy Elgegoo as had great results from the get go using that. Anycubic Resin (for me) proved to be a bit more problematic, but i have learned that print settings (exposure times/plate levelling/FEP tensioning) are all instrumental in getting great results. Once done, this stuff is amazing. The detail from your prints is sublime.. (see my pics).. It's a little smelly to use and make sure you dont get it on skin as it can cause severe irritation. I'd say once your settings are "dialled in" on your slicer program, you can look forward to great results with this resin. Price break is good and comes supplied in good/secure packaging.

This resin is really easy to use and has only a whiff of pungent odour... much better than traditional resin.. and just pop your prints in the wash & cure station and it's ready in minutes... Note it is still pretty toxic stuff and needs care and the correct protection equipment. It also seems to be a bit more brittle than nornal resin...but for my applications it work just fine

The quality of Anycubic resin is really bad. Basic black is ok sometimes but the High Clear is really bad. The curing time can be different from one bottle to another and Anycubic don't care about this. If you use Anycubic resin you will have to do a calibration between every new bottle and big prints are impossible to do without risking your prints and FEP due to low quality resin. After several daily discussions with support during several weeks and 5L of failed prints I will never buy Anycubic resin again. There are several other brands with higher quality and the same or less price

Es el segundo bote que compro de esta marca y no viene exactamente la cantidad indicada. Viene un poco menos y el problema es que aun queda espacio en la botella para llenarla un poco más y que sea una cantidad más exacta a la indicada. En cuanto a la calidad de la resina: - El curado es fantástico y completo - El acabado es fino y detallado, no deja residuos (hay que colarlo bien tras su uso siempre) - La transparencia es media-baja si se realiza una pieza maciza - El olor es bastante más neutro que otras resinas, por lo que es 'cómodo' de usar en casa en lugares ventilados sin que inunde de olores la casa. Lo seguiré comprando porque otras marcas son bastante malas y en este caso relación calidad/precio es muy buena, aunque venga menos lleno.

Nice

good
