Product Information

However, if your model has intricate details, you will need to use flush cutters to make sure that you get the cleanest break possible. Answer: Start with washing your newly printed 3D model. You can use an ultrasonic bath, which uses a cleaning fluid that you can wash away the uncured resins off your models. You can also dunk the 3D object in a tub filled with isopropyl alcohol and then move it around Both Wash & Cure units are delivered ready for use. You do not have to spend a long time setting them up and can, in principle, wash and post-cure the first models immediately. Nevertheless, you should read the operating instructions carefully before the setup to avoid damage due to incorrect operation. The L-shaped light strip design also makes the upper UV lamp adjustable, so that the model is also sufficiently cured from above.

There are several options that let you avoid that hassle, however. You can buy a curing station from the same manufacturer who made your printer. Or you can use a nail polish curing lamp, which is more affordable than 3D printer curing lamps After printing, you can put the just finished models directly into the Form Wash. Or you can just rinse it without removing it from the build platform. This machine also uses magnets for its curing platform. Your 3D model rotates all the way around, ensuring even curing. There are double-row LED lights that handle the curing process.As with your 3D printer, you should use a stable table for both devices that does not wobble when you bump into it. It is recommended to place the device in a well-ventilated room. The IPA wash solution is highly volatile, flammable and smells strong. Operation If your model is bigger than 30 millimeters, or if it has a very complicated shape and surface area, then opt for longer curing times. Dimensions The washing container measures 6.7 by 4.7 by 6.3 inches (170 by 120 by 160 millimeters), which is bigger than the Anycubic machine. This means that if you regularly print larger models, this might not be for you. The operation of both Wash & Cure units is very simple and has been significantly improved compared to the previous models. The controls are located on the front of each device. The Anycubic Wash & Cure 2.0 is equipped with a simple button for selecting the operating mode. A green LED next to the button shows which operating mode you have selected.

In fact, this machine will help you do all your post-processing work by pressing a few buttons. Everything runs automatically.Better suited for those who are using FormLabs 3D printers, specifically the Form 3, 3L, 3B, 3BL, and Form 2 You can also cure 3D models as big as 5.5 inches (140 millimeters) in diameter and 6.5 inches (165 millimeters) tall.

To solve this problem, the Anycubic research team has now developed the successor to Wash & Cure with more UV lights for more uniform curing. This way, you can get a consistent and thorough wash every time. It uses isopropyl alcohol to wash your prints. And if you’re busy, the Form Wash has a mechanism that will raise the wash basket when it’s done. That way, you do not have to fret about over-soaking your prints and warping them. In both scenarios, you will need to make sure that the entire print is submerged before you start washing. Curing Dunking and rinsing your 3D objects in isopropyl alcohol may need at least two rinses because manually moving around the print will not be as thorough as putting it in a washing machine. A rotating platform ensures a 360 ° UV treatment so that your work of art is also cured from all angles.However, the Anycubic Wash & Cure 2.0 only offers the option to permanently mount the print bed from the Anycubic Photon and Photon S printers in wash tanks. The mount is not compatible with the build platforms of other 3D printers. Build platforms from other printers that do not fit in the holder can only be placed on the wash basket with the models facing downwards, but cannot be fixed. Provided the build platform is not too large and the models are smaller than the inside height of the wash basket. The washing containers of Anycubic Wash & Cure 2.0 and Elegoo Mercury Plus have a volume of around 3.5 liters. The maximum size of the models that you can clean in these containers differs only marginally in both devices. With the Anycubic Wash & Cure 2.0, the models can have a maximum size of 120 x 74 x 165 mm (L x W x H). With the Elegoo Mercury Plus, the maximum size of the models is 125 x 85 x 160 mm (L x W x H).
