PERFECT Details With Elegoo Saturn 2 - 8K Resin 3D Printer

🔥Elegoo announced the successor to the Saturn resin printer, the new Saturn 2. Here are my impressions and test prints in this first look preview. Super details with the 28-micron pixel given by the 8K mono LCD panel. High detail across a large print volume on a machine with a reasonable footprint makes the Saturn 2 very compelling, but we also share some misprints we've countered as well.

The most complete review I've ever seen. Thank you. Really nice job.

1. Don’t hesitate to use the cover.
2. To clean up the printed models use the ultrasound cleaner.
3. Always shake well the resin before use it.
4. Try to not use the air cleaner - I think that this can increase the quality of the printed parts.
5. Each resin have his own print parameters, so before printing you need to print the test model with different screening times and look the result under the microscope to choose the optimal parameters.

Hope this will help you get the best quality of the print. Regards from Ukraine.

Ive been using the Saturn 2 since Sept and it's a beast. My only issue with it is the ball join holding the build plate isn't quite strong enough and the plate is very easy to un-level if you're not careful (even if you are) when removing prints. I think a whambam or similar would help.

[HeliumFreak]

Um yeah, dont level the machine with the vat in place .... You dont want to risk damaging the sheet. Its best to use a piece of thick paper or card. Most printers will come with a piece of card specifically for bed leveling.

If anyone was thinking about getting the original 4K mono Saturn, Elegoo currently (06/19/2022) has them on clearance on their website for $345.78.

You need to submerge your prints in isopropyl alcohol completely to wash them correctly.

[dip]

wait
shouldnt you remove supports before you cure the print?

[RazDesignAB]

Nice and calm video! A lot of of the videos today’s are so hyper you getting stressed just watching them, so nice with some easier tempo here :) keep going with the good work :)

[COSMICAMISSION]

Brilliant video. Subscribed. Thanks!

1:15 - You haven't met the United States Postal Service, have you? They would take that as a personal challenge. LOL

[reefingon]

Great review! I've been using the Saturn 2 for a week, the performance is goodXD

[ashiha]

Great review! Can you perhaps make an updated video using it to make PCBs?

[_HighDuke]

Thanks for the review! Have been looking at resin printers for a while now.

[kuro]

Can you rotate the Jinx model so that it's lying on its side? Seems like it would print faster and with fewer supports.

I don't know why slicers don't do it automatically.

[fernoratube]

Weren't you supposed to put the paper sheet for the z - calibration process? @ 2:44

[hippie-io]

Action Box on YouTube has a desktop plastic injection machine that might mate very well with your (excellently reviewed) printer. They have been experimenting with 3D printed and it looks promising!

[dragasan]

That's was a very well done review. Thank you.

[AlmostMachining]

Nice motor stator! Great show if this printer. Thank you!

[GuardianAssassin]

You didn't calibrate with the paper? Just on the film itself?

[arunsharma-dxyn]

Your video shows that you are using a water washable resin - So I'm a little confused as to why you say you are using alcohol to wash the models
