    Nice review! I need me a big build volume.
    Edit: Also thank you for being honest about the faulty fan noise. Integrity is a thing missing from reviewers. Glad it held them to better standards.

    I'm very impressed with your review, and the machine.
    I think it might be my next purchase.
    As you said, this is still in the test/beta stage, I would like to see a few changes:
    Carrying handles, as you pointed out.
    Some kind of sturdy lift handle for the lid, as sticky fingers make a mess of the plastic.
    A metal vat instead of the plastic one, as I feel it would give more rigidity to the process and reduce drift.
    (PS Love the clips on the vat and plate, instead of those infernal screws.)
    And finally, an integrated camera. Since using the Saturn 4 Ultra, I can't do without it.
    Uniformation are obviously way ahead with an integral heater and resin feed, so finish it off.
    My point being, if you return to find a small 2 hour print has gone SNAFU, it's not a big deal, but this is a BIG printer, and I don't want to wait 12 hours only to find out it failed an hour into the print, not to mention the waste of expensive resin in the process.
    Bluetooth cameras are cheap now, and this thing has wireless and LAN as well, so I don't see it as a big change to add it.
    Oh, and bung some lights in, so we can see what we are looking at. 😄
    The price point is not by any means cheap, but you can see what you are paying for, so I for one would be prepared to splash out a bit more with those improvements.
    Great to hear from you again, Geoff, keep up the good work.

    Great review, again, of the pros/cons. I really hope they listen. And if you see this Uniformation, VOG is one of the FEW "tech reviewers" who I trust for honesty. When I am looking to upgrade I see if they and a couple of others have a video on it first.
    I agree about the autofeed system. Without a way to agitate the bottle they will separate and that can affect the prints. Interesting to see the pitting tests play out, I would not expect the fan to be the cause. Maybe if it was replaced that could confirm it.
    And handles, put handles on the machine for easier movement. I have limited strength now, and would definitely need something reliable to grab instead of accidently pulling upward on the door.

    • @vogman
      @vogman  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks for the kind words 😁
      The pitting baffles me. If it had been consistent, I would have been happy, but an inconsistent problem is the most difficult to track down.
      The fan is nosier than it appears on the video and you can feel the vibration through the metal body, so maybe, just maybe, that's the issue.
      IF Uniformation are happy to provide a new fan, I'd be happy to resume my printing tests. But I'm guessing the fan belongs on or near the motherboard and overheating that is a road to disaster, so I've been taking risks all the time I've been pushing it for answers.
      As for strength, it's few of us that get stronger as we get older. The biggest problem with this printer is unpackaging. You cannot lift it from the box. You have to cut away the box and then unbolt the steel framing. Ideally this is a two person job.

  • @C-M-E
    @C-M-E 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    While it might be something as simple as a wire that is being slapped by the fan (that's happened to me A Lot with both case fans and GPUs fresh out of the box from shipping/handling), it still requires hands-on adjustment to fix and getting into a brand-new printer inevitably means instant down time; I'm of the sort that I'll repair it myself vs the alternative of shipping it back and being without, with exception of waiting for replacement parts. Heck, most folks probably have a few spare case fans floating around that will fit at least until a factory-fresh is available.
    I certainly appreciate some details being filled in of my own curiosity, and I'm super happy to see the resin fill system isn't proprietary. 👍 Much agreed with the ACF. That'd be something I'd swap out for first use, which is kind of curious as their GK2 films were always nFEP/PFA even on the first run models (shortage I guess of the 'good stuff' at time of release?). I've bought mine by the roll for many years, but not everyone is in that group of 'power users' and a 3/6 pack might last them for the life of the printer.

    Hey Vogman, thank you for putting together these videos and for your honesty. I have a question which I'm hoping you can help me with. I'm torn between the Phrozen Mega 8k V2 or the GK3Ultra. As you've had hands on with both, I wondered if you would share your thoughts. If I were to mainly print at 0.05 layer height, the quality between both printers would be the same right? Just the Mega 8K would allow for bigger prints? I'd appreciate any feedback or suggestions you have. I'd be printing mostly big statues.

    @andreafalconiero9089 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    The GK3 is an impressive piece of equipment, but I don't need a resin printer this big. What I would actually like to see would be a miniature version of the GK2 (call it the "GK1") to produce small objects with the highest possible amount of detail (20um voxel size, or better) -- something like the Phrozen Sonic Mini 8K but with Uniformation design and build quality. I hope that when Uniformation decides to next expand their line of printers that this is the direction they take, since I think there is a market for this type of product, with few current competitors. At the right price, I'd certainly buy one!

    Very good review Geoff. Hopefully, Uniformation will fix the cover and fan fault with your printer soon. It would be interesting to see if a new fan fixes the pitting. Also, I hope Uniformation appreciate the honesty of your reviews and constructive criticism. These are the reasons why products need a warranty period. Plus, a company with a reputation for good customer service will stand out above the others.

    • @vogman
      @vogman  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I'm not sure my honest approach went down well with Uniformation Dan. There's been a few emails expressing their "disappointment" with me - but as I told them, I treat all makes and models the same. I can only guess that this disappointment in me will see me struck off future review lists, which is a shame as ultimately the end user suffers. "Yes-men" may sell more initially, but this approach leads to selling polished turds to angry and frustrated customers... and will these customers recommend the company or come back for future products?
      Honesty may appear to hurt, but ultimately it's the best medicine.

    Thank you for the review! This was super helpful for me. I’m debating whether to get the GK2 or GK3 Ultra for my only resin printer. I get that they are basically the same, with a few exceptions, but I just can’t quite convince myself whether the bigger size is worth it or not over the GK2.

    • @vogman
      @vogman  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The advantage of this printer is that it will deal with anything very well, small prints or big prints... both with excellent detail.
      But ask yourself, do you really need 300mm prints? These will take a couple of days to print...
      And if you don't, do you really want to pay GK2 prices for an 8K printer? I loved the GK2, but when 14K screens came along, I had to abandon it.

    Great review! I have a question, was the pitting happen with the same resin?

    • @vogman
      @vogman  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I've used this resin in a few review videos now as it gives great results and photographs well, so I'm happy there's no issues there. How the GK3 U would handle other resins I can't be certain, but I really can't imagine that it would make any real difference. Unfortunately with the fan being dodgy, using the printer further is risky as there's a potential to damage the screen, etc, so I had to stop my tests.

  • @jacksmith785
    @jacksmith785 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    You mentioned that you hadn't come across a machine that mixes the resin - it's not really a solution, but Sunlu ABS Black (no idea if it works the same way with the other black resins) can go for weeks on end without needing to be mixed. Maybe they use ink instead of pigment to colour it, which would make sense. I've been using that pretty much exclusively and I love not having to mix my resin, it's been a real lifesaver.

      Well thank you Mark for proving my point. Like you I felt this review, whilst balanced and honest, was ultimately positive 👍
      I really don't know what the future will be between VogMan and Uniformation. Whilst I've spoken plainly about many brands and no doubt in some cases caused great embarrassment, I've never before received a complaint from a printer company!
      Uniformation have sent me a few emails expressing their disappointment with me, but it is important to note that the English isn't clear (language differences). I SUSPECT they would have been happier if I had ignored any problems I identified, and that worries me in case other TH-camrs have done exactly that.
      I can understand the temptation to do this. We'd all like sponsorship and promotion, but personally I can't do that if it means being dishonest. If I lie to you just so I can earn money, then to me I'd be a fraud and a thief.

    Could the pitting be related to bubbles in the resin? I had this issue when using heavily mixed Syraya Tech standard resin. Every time that the plate was submerged, more and more small bubbles would rise around the sides for a full 456 layer height 5 micron print.

    • @vogman

      I've built a few boxes using resin printers, so yes, it's possible. You'd need to make sure things were thick enough to handle daily use as some resins are quite weak. Of course there are other resin that are very strong but cost a little extra. So could you do it? Yes, absolutely. Is it suitable for you? I don't know without knowing a lot more about your ideas.
      You could test the premiss quite cheaply by having a local print farm produce a resin-printed box for you. If it ticks all the boxes, you know you're on your way 😁

    1:55 I've heard the ol "its not a production unit" lie way too often to ever believe it.
    In my opinion, if they send it to reviewers and its not advertised as a beta product before being sent out, they get no benefit of the doubt, and the printer is what it is.

      Absolutely! You should definitely ignore all the rave reviews their printers get and how gk2 prototype issues were fixed for the official release.

      In truth, when I received this unit I was made aware of the launch date, so I could see no reason why it would be a prototype. It was only after my first video that Uniformation told me this fact.
      I can only present to you the information I'm given. How reliable that information is, however, is for you to decide. 😁

      You should certainly be cautious about rave reviews, especially those heavily promoted by the companies themselves (it's possible unofficial sponsorship may have taken place, like "You promote us, we'll promote you," or undeclared sponsorship).
      Of course it's also possible that the reviewer is just genuinely overwhelmed by the quality and ability of the unit being reviewed.😁

    let me guess its 'innovative!' I think this is just lazzy by information. The GK2 is a much larger market for price and size so considering its age and industry evolution they could have released a much better GK2

    • @vogman
      @vogman  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      There's nothing really innovative on this printer. The GK2 was very innovative and way ahead of the majority of budget-end printers, but the GK3 Ultra is just more of the same on a bigger scale. I suppose the resin feed is different, but as I said in the video, these don't impress me personally.
      Interestingly I was expecting a GK3 (an improved GK2), and thanks to difficulties in language I wasted a lot of time on that. In the end it seems there was only ever a GK3 Ultra.
      Like you, I would have liked to have seem a GK2-Update... 😁

    Not touching them considering the problems and the fact they got funny with you about mentioning the fan. You know why no one complains about them? Because the only people who own them are TH-camrs

      @vogman  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Like I say, the fan and even cracked case damage could have happened to anyone, with any brand. I don't think I've ever received a printer that wasn't well packaged, but accidents and mishandling can happen... that's just logistics.
      They weren't nasty with me, but they expressed their disappointment in me through very lengthy emails. It was a strange and unusual experience.
      As regards ownership, I've heard from a lot of folks (not TH-camrs) and they've loved their Uniformation purchases. I also stand by my comments... broken fan and cracked case included, it's still the best printer in this range. It really is 😁
