Love the video ❤
Thank you Titanforge!
Another incredible review. I’ve went on several of your recommendations and have yet to be disappointed by any of them. Thanks for this. Keep them coming.
Ty Titan Forge!
Thanks Titan Forge!
Been waiting for this video!
FINALLY Anycubic listened and added rubber feet! (I hated the M5 series sliding around when removing the plate)
I am curious to see how expensive a spare VAT will be and how the resin pump holds up over time. 🤔
Great video as always Ross, I am excited to get one later this year.
Thanks so much, glad you noticed the key selling point!
Honestly, if you're printing resin, you should have a silicone mat. I returned the m5s because the "auto leveling" was junk, but it wasn't slipping on the large silicone mat I had it on
Great review as always Mr. Ross things are looking pretty good. Adding that heater assembly is a big plus and those rubber pads on the feet. Can't wait to see your next comparison review on these 3D SLA Printers, should be a real shopper's delight. Thank you for your time and work, happy printing.
I got mine today, what really sucks is how to Power on that thing...
You got all this Remote/Cloud Stuff, Autofill and so on, that you would think "Hey I can just remotly start my printing" but no some really smart Dude was thinking "Hey lets put in a Power Switch and and second Button into that Machine, that you have to press every time you want to start it"...
So you still need to go to the Printer if you want to print something (unless you willingly to leave the thing powered on all the time, with loud fans and probably high power consumption), and no it doesn't have some kind of standby Mode after you started it, its allways running full with Fans at 100%. Funny thing, if you turn the power switch on or connect a power cable to it with power switch on it instantly turns on the Fans at 100% but you can't do anything until you press the Start Button on the Front... what a stupid Design...
Apart from that, the printer seems to be quite good, but that just annoys me.
EDIT: Ok the power consumption, when not printing, is only about 11,5W, but still to much to leave it on 24/7 to remotely start a print.
Thanks Titan Forge!!
Thx Titan Forge. Got mine on Saturday. Wow it so fast printed a Genestealer in 29 minutes. Plugged it into my 6KS said it would take 4h 16m
Great review, love the nuanced pros/cons and pointers for whom this printer would be great.
Thanks, Titanforge!
Thanks Titan forge!
Great video thank you! it's definitely helped me decide which printer to upgrade to.
Thanks, Oooh, which one
@@FauxHammer The Saturn 4 Ultra, its closer to my price point. I can pay in local currency and has the features I want.
Thanks Titan Forge. It's companies like this that helps keep the hobby going strong. Well Done Titan Forge
back at it again witha great vid!
Thanks so much!!!
Thank you for this review!
Also, thank you Titanforge for making this possible!
Will be my next printer as it looks like quite an upgrade from my old Photon (good old plain Photon... Not even an S, just old Photon).
Hope you enjoy it!
Thanks for the review!! Sharp, clear, detailed and funny - as always.
Ordered the M7 some time ago.
I think the M7 will do fine next to my M3 Premium 😊
Both Amazing printers!
Great review, bloody hard to keep up how good these are! Nice work
Thanks a ton!
Thanks Titanforge!
Thanks titan forge. I like most of your models. The fantasy stuff suuuuper rocks, the sci-fi stuff is weirdly stiff when compared to how good the fantasy stuff is.
Thank you, love you bye.
TY titan forge, and also definitely think things like resin pumps should be optional extra and paid for separately not forced.
TY titanforge! I'm torn between this and the saturn 4 ultra, I love the idea of the heating pump but not the acf and the tilting mechanism of the ultra 4 looks great but has no real heating solution.
Thanks titan forge, we need this content!
Guess you could just print a new bottle cap for the auto refill to fit any other resin
Possible, but as shown the pump, sensor and air return valve are fixed parts of the existing lid.
It still possible to refill original bottle with any other resin )))
Good review as always! I can’t wait to receive my printer. The design of the printer is good, it looks beautiful! About the pump I think that I’m not going to use it, it seems like a cheap accessory and it don’t remove all the resin of the vat, so, yeah!
But I’m curious about what other accessories they are making for this printer, I think the hole it can be to connect an alternate air purifier like the big ELEGOO one?
Yeah I;m hoping they do a pump that can hang out of a window instead. that would be a game changer
Thanks TitanForge!
For the auto filler resin and cleaning process. You can use the auto refill also for pump out the resin in the bottle
Pardon?
@@FauxHammer sorry, my fault, I didn't write it very clearly.
I meant that the resin autorefill pump also has a suction function. after printing, if you need to clean the vat, you can use the pump to suck the resin inside the bottle and facilitate cleaning
That's cool
Thanks Titan Forge
Great video as always Ross. Have you given up on keeping your list of best printers updated? I ask as i very much trust your opinion.
1. Thank you TitanForge!
2. Thanks for the great review. I've been waiting for this on. The M7 is still on my short list, but that vat will keep me from pulling the trigger before looking at the next printer I'm hoping to see (but is barely a rumor at this point).
Seems like everyone is pushing speed and ACF. Also while the heater is kinda cool, I like to have multiple vats on hand and this looks a bit cost prohibitive...perhaps...I guess we don't know yet. 😊
I wouldn’t hold out much home for the barely rumoured printer. But maybe wait 2-3 weeks for something even less known.
Thank you Titan Forge.
Thanks Titan-Forge!
quick question i am struggling a bit with this printer mainly because i cant use chitubox ive got a nice setup for light supports which dont mark the prints, but having to use the anycubic photon workshop the supports are super aggressive even at the light setting, am i possibly over exposing my layers and this is why my supports are so agressive ? thanks
thanks titanforge! :)
Great review!
Question is though if these newest generation printers are starting to be comparable or even better than the GKTwo?
I think it’s now more of a choice if features you want.
But ask me again in about 3 weeks
I get the idea behind the heater, but I do not like how clunky it winds up making basic maintenance and having to flush it out is bleh. Much prefer the vat heater style.
Thanks, agreed, but it works
So much hate from the comment section for an Honest review. There are so many other Pay-to-play channels out there to watch where the reviewer hypes up fanboy products, it's honestly refreshing to find a reviewer that isn't afraid to tell the manufactures when they are F$cking up. I guess Haters gonna hate - Keep up the amazingly honest reviews Ross and -
THANKS TITAN FORGE
Looks like a darn good printer, thanks for the review Ross. Also, thank you Titan Forge 👍
Thank you!
The resin heater system moving the resin throughout the print is a very good thing because like the s4 tilting it could help keep the resin mixed during long prints, cleaning looks annoying tho
Yeah it’s an interesting way to do it
Thanks Titanforge 😁
Thanks Titan Forge 👍
Thanks Titanforge 🎉
I see all the time were they poor resin on the raised Print bed (e.g. 4:56). Does this improve something like remove bubbles from the resin or is this just video stuff to show the colour and thickness of the resin?
Nope. Just looks sexier on camera
5:30 thats the first time I've seen anyone try to pour resin back without a funnel and preferably also filter, was that for the vid or do you usually do that?
I normally use a funnel, I lost it. I have. Lot of crap in here.
Someone else just asked this same question question
This review cures any buyer remorse i had. I preorder this machine that just arrived today. I went with preordering this over the elegoo because i thought the tilt mechanic seemed like a gimmick and i wanted a heart. but saw lots of reviews come in praising the tilt mechanic. However, I live in an area it gets pretty cold for 5 months of year so the heater is a huge benefit for me and got it for preorder discount so seeing it also delivers quality prints makes me super satisfied with my choice and dont have to worry about try to get the saturn 4 ultra. ill gladly take a slower printer that i can print all year round vs trying to figure something out to heat the Saturn.
100% mate. I’ve seen so many comments on this video with some saying not fir me and other like you feeling validated in your purchase
And having that feeling you made the right choice, no matter what it is, is what I strive to deliver.
@@FauxHammer after printing on it the last 2 days this machine just seems significantly better designed and quality than the m5 series. there so much i love about the m7 but i do agree with you trying to pour out resin is a nightmare with the heater attached to the plate. i had nearly a a full vat i had to pour out because a model i didnt support properly..... and o boy it was a struggle to pour with that much resin and being back heavy with the heater. I am thinking this might be why they included a pump to pump out the resin to avoid pouring with it. honestly thinking about ordering some anycubic resin just to clean and save the bottles when i am done to use with other resin so i can use the pump when i have to empty my vat. i know it will be slower but might be worth it cus i was seriously concern about spilling resin all over my self trying to pour that monster.
Pretty nice review, i got the kind of information i was looking for 👍🏼.
I just have a question: it is possible to use chitubox or any other 3rd party slicer or all my stuff has to pass by anycubic software to slice?
Yeah you can use Chitubox, but I always recommend you use the slicer that comes with it to avoid odd compatibility issues.
you can yes, i usually prep and support in Lychee, then do the final slice and send from workshop
The heating idea is actually a good solution i think, but is it a peristaltic pump? if so what id the life expectancy of the tubing and how hard is it to replace?
Yeah, that;s the one thing I can;t test, I think the solution would be a whole new VAT and pump together
Thanks Titan forge
Just need the tilt release and it will be a solid buy.
and the Saturn just needs heater...
@@FauxHammer Exactly... Getting so close.
Definitely a big thanks to Titan Forge 👍
I really appreciate your review! its on point and detailed as allways! thank you ross! I also like the style of the new m7 pro and its great that they beeing innovative with the new heater. buuuutttt to me m7pro doenst look like the go to printer, which is reliable, easy to use and has topnotch quality.. I preordered it allready but may cancel it, cause I dont like acf, that foil screen protector and the extra cleaning from the heated vat. if there were a gkthree with that "14k" screen or an phrozen revo with heated vat band, id pick it...
Stay subscribed to the channel. I’ll see you soon
Excellent video! always very fair with your comments.
I know your point about the printers not really being 12k or 14k, so it is better to know the pixel size, however, I have not been able to find this information on the M7pro. Do you know what the pixel size is on this printer?
Finally, thank you Titaforge!
oh crap, i should have said. it;s 24 microns on Y, same as the 12k's
I think X is 19? or 18., It's on the website.
but the one that matters is 24, well, 24.7 i think some of them quote
Cheeky title - good review. Also interested in how good the heater is and its durability.
Thanks - Yep, time will tell
Great video review Ross as always. Been waiting for this review and high hopes but..
The SU4 made me want, even preorder basket, but no heater. No Anycubic have the heater, ne enginnered approach, which you hit my same concern. Cost of replacement, maintenance and the resin flushing.
So now its still SU4 with its Heater (any ETA on you update review with heater?) Vs gkTwo or maybe gkThree.
Budget at about £600 for resin printer, cure & wash setup. Looking like a Q3 purchase and watching more ir your awesome fair thoughts, reviews.
I’ll have some more content out before q3 to consider. No update on the heater yet, but I don’t hold out much hope for a tiny plastic heater that blow hot air upwards away from the vat.
@FauxHammer Thanks Ross, I be watching with baited breath :)
Keep up the great work!
Heater is confirmed to August. So 2 months waiting. But as spoken of the heater, I’m glad the dit the blow out to the top. And not to the front (als by the m5 heater of anycubic or as the chitusystems one)
Was looking into getting the saturn 4 ultra for my next resin printer, but this one honestly looks better. The bath heater in combination with the lack of a fancy box (I have my own ventilated place for resin printing) makes it pretty attractive for me. However, it seems to lack a few of the quality of life changes you'd expect from a 2024 printer, and indeed the pump is way too situational and finicky to be included in the standard package (especiaslly with the deeper vat). Would love to see an in depth comparison of printers in this price range.
Thanks mate, yep I’m gonna do this. It’s a hard one. But I’m just gonna lay out the comparison elements and let viewers decide what they want…
I'm new to Resin Printing and just want a printer that works. Should i get this or should i get the Saturn 4 ? Not really interested in the Ultra.
This has more features than the basic Saturn
I always use a funnel when pouring resin back into the bottle, but yeah I can't believe they haven't fixed that design yet lol.
So do I normally. But I forgot where I put it!
Thanks for the review! I've been sitting on this one for a while. It looks nice, but I think I'm going to stick with my M3 Premium for one more generation...
keep hold of that baby! it;s a gem!
Thanks Titanforge
I tought I wanted the Saturn 4 ultra … but now I’m back again at the decision table. As I want the heat vat here and the tilt screen of the Saturn
But the Saturn 4 ultra has a +1 I think
yep. so do I, If i had this, I'd miss the tilting vat, if i had that, I'd miss the heater. I suppose you can make a heating solution easier than your own vat tilting solution?
Thanx titan forge
thanks titan forge
Noob question here. What's the advantage of pouring the resin on top of the elevated build plate, instead of pouring it directly into the vat?
There is none it’s just more cinematic
@@FauxHammerHa ha ha. I need to do that paying you homage 🤣
Fantastic review. I’m really not sure I like the vat heating concept. Extra clean up steps, more to go wrong etc. Only time will tell how reliable this is long term.
A problem I can see with the vat heater is failed prints or junk getting stuck in it. Glad they are trying something new but I am not convinced on itl.
Potential. the slip the resin goes under is tiny, but I admit I had not considered this. a bigger worry is the gunk left to dry inside it without a regular flush
Thanks, titan forge. How did you import custom file to RERF? I was under the impression you can only use the anycubic file. At least for the m5s
Make a file in the anycubic slicer with the model evenly split into the 8 sections. (Do not cross these sections or it won’t work) and save the file with the same name as the RERF file on the root of the usb drive
@@FauxHammer Thank you. I will try it.
you can get little screw drivers that are the size of like a big pen which make doing all the screw for feps 10x easier
I have one. They’re too weak
@@FauxHammer when the torque is too much you can just do half turns in your hand while holding the button and it will act like a ratchet screwdriver until its loose enough to unscrew it's self, same with tightening
Great review ! What would be an even faster printer than this one ?
is your top recommendation for miniatures still the gktwo?
for now
The only printer I know that actually auto-levels is my Bambu and it's fantastic with that. I save so much time from just leveling alone lol. I know I'm talking about FDM though
Almost any 250 dollar plus fdm printer you can find on sale right now has auto mesh bed leveling, so it's not just the bambulab ones
Well that actually is auto levelling because it knows the height of all the points in the plate
I’m a little relieved TBH; seeing as how it is sitting in its box in my lounge as I type this. Always value your opinion. Thanks.
Hope you enjoy it!
The 'ANERALABS' font looks squeezed , you need to use 'wait before lift' time parameter. The long curing time in the bottom layers affect z hight. Add time to this parameter will limit the over expansion in z direction .
Rest Time Before Lift: The expansion of resin is not stop immediately when uv light is turn off ,this is photo chemical process with relative low time constant, so adding time to this parameters helps maintain expanse in x-y axis rethen than in z axis . Mainly influance in bottom layers where expose time is large.
We have the name for the expanse in x-y as 'elephant foot' .yet we don't have a name for the problem i have of squeezing the first layers after bottom layers and in this case the solution was changing this parameters to 1 sec. (Nova 3D Red Wax like resin / Saturn 3 Ultra)
You mean wait before cure?
@@FauxHammer no, wait time after cure. Give it a try!
Hi FauxHammer, No i mean wait after cure, give it a try!
Consultation!
Would you recommend M7 or saturn4 ultra?
I own FDM. This is my first time purchasing a resin printer.
If I buy saturn4 ultra, should I buy the heater separately?
Is it better than a Mars 5 Ultra or Saturn Ultra 4? Looking for a printer for a beginner but has a $600 budget for printer.
It’s better than a Mars 5 ultra IMO but as for the Saturn…
Print quality is the same. So it comes down to. Do you need or want a heater?
Saturn is faster with no quality loss but has no heater
@@FauxHammer Thanks, Yeah, I ordered the Mars 5 Ultra already. I wanted to try Elegoo, But I'll buy the Anycubic M7 Pro for heater, larger size and different brand. Elegoo has a chamber heater is another 55$
Just not sure about getting into resin too much, I'm just starting into 3D printing and want to make it a full-time career commercially.
You mention this printer's direct competitor, what printer are you referring to?
Saturn 4 Ultra
Do you recommend this over Elegoo Saturn 4 ultra or M5s pro?
As I said in the video. I recommend you buy the one that has the features you want. Once you replace the ACf with PFA in this The quality of prints is the same
I have liked! Waiting 2 to 3 weeks. Wink if it is heated.
It is
@@FauxHammernot this printer. I know this one is.
@@deeza85za I know you do…
@@FauxHammersame page then. Awesome.
i am interested to see what you think about the krobra 3 combo, and please look at the nozzle because every other review of it I've seen they didn't look at it
I have it on my desk now. Give me a couple of weeks.
I’ll look at the nozzle. I’m loving the approach that AnyCubic has taken here in some regards.
Others are…. Well, they are typical AnyCubic. But I’m not completely unimpressed. The ACE is nice
@@FauxHammer I appreciate you replying and the way you review things, it's very genuine if something is bad you very clearly say what's wrong with it and that you have the standpoint of ease of use because the marketing numbers either. Yeah from what I've seen it seems the ACE has more potential than the printer, that they tried but fell short of replicating the bambu experience but so long as it prints well without much effort on my end that's all I'm looking for.
@@adamdart6809 so the crux is, that’s the bit I’m still looking for too…
Thx titan forge
PFA for the win!
Thank you Titan Forge for getting the M7 to Ross. And Ross, I have been with Loot Studios since they began. That out of the way, there is no way I would consider this machine! The heater and all the things you mentioned about it, the weight, the inability to pour, and like you, I will and never would use a pump! Anycubic is my resin printer of choice. When I got my M5s, the first thing I did, was swap that cloudy film for clear and use it as an M5. I like the other features of the M5s, but that cloudy release film, no! I print for max detail! That is what I do resin printing for. Not speed or give up details to print at .05, I print at .03 every time and damn the time. Also like you, this game all the machine makers are playing with 12K & 14K, they need to stop until they actually get there. And they cannot until they stop using rectangles and change the 5,000 pixels to a much higher number. Marketing, always marketing. Marketing doesnt do much when they all get their screens from the same place. Ok, sorry, I will step off my soapbox in the middle of the town square.
Hey I’m happy to listen to someone on a soapbox screaming the same tune as me!
Any tests of how well the heating actually works? Kind of important to know if the heating actually works in colder conditions or if its just to keep temperatures stable.
Kinda struggling to do that at the mo because it;s summer, even in the UK it;s too warm and I don't have a giant fridge to test it in. But this will come later in comparison videos and and end of year summary
@@FauxHammer Yeah I get you. Thought about a way to test it without just putting it in a big freezer and wasnt sure myself lol
Maybe put just a resin bottle in the fridge? This won’t be exact but should provide minimum time to heat estimate. You’ll also learn if they measure the ambient temperature or the actual resin temperature.
You say the pump covers the air extraction vent so it's one or the other, but the pump does seem to have holes in the side for ventelation so it might work, will just have to wait and see I guess. Ultimately, the reason they had the vent in this werid place was because if they put it on the lid you would have to disconnect it constantly to remove the lid because they still won't give us flip lids!!!
I know. I noticed when the video went live and thought “you twat”
Hey Faux Hammer i have been lokking for a big resin printer i wase looking for the Elegoo saturn 4 Ultra and now you show this one so now i am not sure what i should go for any idea on that ?? regards Hulksie
Do you want a printer with a heater, or can you sort heating out yourself and you would prefer speed?
if the former, get this, if the latter get the Saturn
@@FauxHammer Heating is no problem for me here and speed i think is depending on what i have to print
@@nielsbunger269 So the Saturn is speed with no quality loss versus this which has some quality caveats when you want speed. I would get the Saturn in your position
@@FauxHammer ok super thx for quick respond anf youre help love youre video´s
@@nielsbunger269 thanks mate, it;s what I'm here for.
The pump looks like it has an air channel and vents at the bottom so it shouldn't be a problem afding an external filter or purifier. I just noticed on my third watch.
I know I’m sorry, I noticed it when I watched the video go live and slapped myself in the face
1. I purchased and am using this product. Is the basic film for this bed ACF? So, if ACF film is the default, I am thinking of ordering PFA.
2. When printing starts, does the cooler at the bottom of the machine make a lot of noise? Mine is very noisy. Does the bottom cooler make a lot of noise when printing starts?
hiya.
1. yeah i's ACF by default, I show me swapping it in the video.
2. it's on the quieter side of machines, but it;s a bit louder when the resin pump is on. it does not bother me and l'm in the same room as it. I can hear the build plate moving up and down over the fans and pumps
@@FauxHammer
The fan noise was so loud that I wondered if there was a problem with this.
Can i ask why he always fills up the resin from the top of the plate? Is there any benefit to it?
Just looks sexier on camera
Thanks haha, I tell you I couldn't wrap my hear around it. Thanks for your reviews also, been wanting to get my first resin printer and all your reviews have been key in making the decision.
@@mccommie9867 thanks I hope they help! I do love when people get the machine they want.
Curious which folks will prefer, the M7 or the Saturn 4 pro. Can we get someone to combine the 2 and give us the best of all worlds?
Yeap I;m curious to see that too. I may do a Poll?
Im whaiting your review about Kobra 3 combo multi color.
Hope Anycubic fix the Kobra 2 issues, i have one and boy its a pain to fix Z off set.
Got mine and am having a hard time getting prints to stick to the build plate. They keep pulling off. I have a old small Photon that works like a gem but not having much luck with this unit so far :(
If prints aren’t sticking. It’s usually 1 of 2 things
1 plate not level.
2 base exposure time too long/short.
is that a new version of the cones of calibration?
yes V3, it;s in the discord
Too bad that I ordered directly on their Website. If you buy it from Amazon it says that it’s going to arrive on June 23, but I got the date of July 1 or 10 from their website 😞
Yeah they have always been a nightmare with this. When you get from the website you go into the Queue, but they ship a bulk to places like amazon first.
However I know they now have these in their warehouse in the UK because I got the one I ordered shipped out and I ordered from the website.
I'm sending it back but I ended up with 3 of these in total in order to try to make this review.
@@FauxHammer It’s my first Anycubic and resin 3D printer, that’s why I was thinking well maybe from their website is more faster but yesterday I saw on Amazon the date and it’s way more earlier. So, I have to wait until the next month.
@@bebo6750 I expect (somewhat hope) it will turn up earlier than the estimate you've had.
same. At least it was cheaper on their site. I found a $30 code and they didnt charge tax so the final price was only $519. On amazon it would have been almost $600. I just checked and they raised the price on amazon an extra $20 recently.
@@RikiB True! But a few weeks ago they was offering the discount like their website on Amazon, but the estimated date was longer on Amazon, so I check back and now is earlier on Amazon! 🙈😂 that’s why I don’t cancel my order on the website I got a few discounts but now they don’t offer discounts on Amazon.
Is it safe to run IPA through the heater?
It doesn’t “heat” when you use the cleaning function
I know this question has nothing to do with M7 pro, but do you know anything about (possibly) upcoming uniformation 3D printers? I've heard it throught the grapevine that uniformation will announce 2 new printers in the next week or so... so yeah, I was hoping you'd be able/willing to shed some more light on that.. thanks! cheers!
oh and thanks, Titan Forge! 😉
Yes I do know
Mark, most companies are now sending Non-Disclosure-Agreements to TH-camrs before sending anything for review. So, yeah, 😂 He knows - but he cannot afford to be sued 😮
@@GeekDetour yep, I love not being sued
@@FauxHammer perfectly understandable 😁
@@GeekDetour yeah, few of us can afford/look forward to being sued 😂
After the M5s disappointment I pre ordered the Saturn Ultra 4 when it was aviable to order, shortly after that the M7 Pro popped up but I told myself to stay away from Anycubic unless you approve the new Printer :'D
I approve of both
Is this time the AA works fine?
No, lines are still there as shown in the video
I like my photon S but im upgrading to a Satern 4 ultra
Wow, that’s an upgrade. Literally my first printer to my 60th!
@@FauxHammer I'm starting to do more printing for my parents who direct musicals so I'm making props using the translucent resin and the photon S is a little slow. Also planning to upgrade my photon vyper to the Bambu Lab X1-Carbon. I'm starting to help my Mother's kindergarten class as education budgets are so low that she cant get stuff for the kids. I'm also building pegboard for organization. Your videos helped me a lot in choosing what to get.
everytime i watch one of your videos of a printer im thinking to buy , you make it so damm hard to pull the trigger! im more confused now ! LOL well i guess the good thing is is im not going to buy a resin printer for an other 2 maybe 3 months , ,maybe by then i will have made up my mind . Thanks for the great work you do!
Give me 2-3 weeks.
Ive been hearing that ACF loses its low friction qualities very quickly, at least for these cheaper MSLA chinese printers. I believe some industrial SLA laser printers use it.
I’m sure will sla it’s different, but yeah. aCF is shit for a. Variety of reasons
