You may want to leave any failed prints outside to dry in the sun and harden or you could place them in a cure chamber if you like. Like the number in its name suggests, the new Elegoo Saturn 2 is the latest iteration of their Elegoo Saturn line of resin 3D printers and comes with quite a few improvements. If you are looking for a larger build volume, you may want to consider taking a look at the Elegoo Jupiter. On the earlier generations of printers, a regular piece of paper was used to compensate for the thickness of the FEP film, but a thicker card is now used because the new FEP 2.

With its multiband design and per-band feedback, dynamics, drive, tone and modulation options, Saturn 2 will bring a unique flavor to your music. Elegoo has been in the resin 3D printer business for the past few years and has produced several different sizes ranging from small printers like the recent Elegoo Mars 3, which has a 4K resolution, all the way up to the new Elegoo Jupiter, with a 6K resolution.With regard to the features, the Elegoo Saturn 2 is closest in design to the Saturn S of any other of Elegoo’s offerings, which is to be expected as that was the previous model. You can always adjust this angle to your liking, but I found the tilt buttons were pretty convenient. Even though the port is shaped like a standard USB port, it has a warning next to it that the output voltage is 24 volts instead of the usual 5 volts produced by USB ports, so you wouldn’t want to plug your USB memory stick into it. Like Elegoo’s Saturn S and Jupiter printers, the Saturn 2 8K comes with a replaceable air purifier module that is powered by a port underneath the UV cover. Martin Marietta (builder of Atlas and Titan rockets), Boeing (builder of S-IC first stages), and North American Aviation (builder of the S-II second stage) were three of the companies that provided responses.

I gave it another rinse in the rinse tank in hopes that the water would now be able to get into the nooks to help remove any additional resin. You will also want to verify that any stray resin did not get on the outside of the resin tray so that it doesn’t end up getting onto the LCD screen when placed back onto the printer, which could end up curing there. The air purifier can be operated with an activated carbon filter via the USB port, effectively filtering odours and vapours. The first thing you’ll want to do once you have Chitubox Basic installed is to add a new printer in the software.

Saturn 2 introduces a host of new features such as a redesigned interface with modulation visualization, new subtle saturation and linear phase processing for mastering, many new distortion styles, and more. From subtle, clean and warm tube or tape saturation to the wildest multiband guitar amp effects: FabFilter Saturn 2 delivers.

After that, I dipped it in water briefly and used the brush included with the water washable resin to loosen up any more resin residue. Once you are happy with the position, hold the build platform with some pressure against the LCD while you tighten first the front bolt, and then the side bolt.Like many of Elegoo’s other printers, it came packaged in a nesting doll style with the tools packaged inside of a smaller box. With some of Elegoo’s earlier printers, this guessing has yielded softer prints that were often gouged with the spatula upon removal. The smaller box is inside of the printer itself along with the build platform, which is placed inside a large block of foam. The current version at the time of this writing already has the Saturn 2 as an option, making setup a breeze. The highest total impulse configuration would have used twelve boosters, with eight started at launch and four started after the first group had been jettisoned.

On one hand, the manufacturer can choose the best settings for the printer, but on the other hand, the manufacturer is making a guess about the specific resin that new users will be using to produce the test prints. The huge build volume of this MSLA-3D printer makes it possible to print detailed, large-format objects. This configuration was dropped when it was determined that the HG-3-SL could not compete with the J-2 in terms of overall performance, reliability, and cost-effectiveness. Using a Fresnel converging lens, the light beams emitted by the 48 built-in LEDs are parallelised, resulting in an extremely uniform exposure at a light wavelength of 405 nm.Then after making sure the large knob that holds the build platform onto the printer is tightened, use the largest hex key to loosen the bolts on the front and side just below the knob. It also gives more surface area for supports to hold on so the model is less likely to fall during printing.
