Anycubic Photon training
This is a draft for training material for AnyCubic Photon
What is SLA-printing
Risks and security precautions
Resin is mildly toxic and an allergen.
Use glasses, gloves and only touch things inside the cabinet as soon as you have started working.
Wash your hands after you have removed the gloves. only Use soap and water, never use IPA or acetone to wash your skin since it does remove most of the resin it helps the rest of it penetrating deeper.
Slicing your files
Slicers and slicer settings https://www.chitubox.com/
Support: Minimas, local minimas, edges
Avoid horizontal faces or edges.
Drainage: Air-holes and drain holes.
Hollowing: Reduces resin-use, makes curing quicker and reduces the number of supports needed
Under exposure: Print fails or loss of small possitivedetails
Over exposure: print gets to thick, loss of small negativedetails
Common errors: To few supports

Preparering the machine
checking and refilling the resin
cleaning the glass
Cleaning the build plate
Finishing the printed object
Let it drip for a little while.
Run it in resin-away, first pre then final wash.
Let it sit in the UV-box for about 20 minutes
Cleaning the printer
Wipe the printer and the work-surfaces with IPA, throw the ragg away.
If something seems to have broken off: Filter the resin!
