Personal Resin Curing Settings (by Resin Type and By Machine) (Patreon)

Greetings all Patrons. 

Since the curing settings for the printers that I have were requested a few times, I thought it best to make a post detailing everything, including my preferred resin. 

The Machines: 

I have two machines at my disposal for resin printing. 

My first printer is the Anycubic Photon Mono X 6K

My second printer is the Phrozen Sonic Mini 4K

I do have a third printer, that being the Prusa i3 Mk3, but that being an FDM machine, I will not go into detail on here. 

The Resins:

Now for the resins, I use 2 colors primarily, both from Elegoo: 

Elegoo Grey (Water-Washable)

Elegoo Green (Water-Washable)

With both of these resins, I combine each liter I purchase with 100ml of Siraya Tech Tenacious 3D Printer Resin in Flexible Yellow. This allows for each print to have some flex to it, and prevent brittleness after curing. 

So again, for clarity, I combine each 1000ml (1 Liter) of Elegoo Grey or Elegoo Green with 100ml of SIRAYA Tech Tenacious. It is a 1/10 ratio. 

The Settings (Lychee Slicer Recommended)

These resins have been tested over the course of dozens of prints, and the settings below will work for Transparent Green or Solid Grey without issue. 

Anycubic Photon Mono X 6K Settings:

One crucial feature here is that the 6K allows for split layer lift-speeds. the total lift distance is 7mm, but for 4mm , it will only move at 1mm/s, but for the remaining 3 seconds, it will move at 3mm/s. This allows for a slow and careful separation from the FEP, while also saving you print time. 

(EDIT: I was informed by a commenter this was done in error. The maximum lift speed for the Mono X 6K is only 3mm/s, so that should be the secondary lift speed ) 

Phrozen Sonic Mini 4K Settings:

Attached below is the LycheeSlicer Printer profiles, for those that use the program as well. 

I hope this has been helpful to all those who wanted an idea of what I print with. Be ready for the next model release very soon.
