Review on EPAX E6 Printer: Cutting-edge Photocuring Monochrome Technology by Hesham Peltier

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Ideal machine, especially for beginners

The Epax E6 is a 6 inch LCD monochrome 3D printer. It's slightly larger than the standard competitor devices (Epax X1, Elegoo Mars, AnyCubic Photon). The monochrome screen offers longer screen life (ie more hours of printing before replacement) than color screens. The LED matrix is amazing and the Z axis and lead screw that comes standard are DIY upgrades that I have paid extra for on other machines. .I am a 3D printer and rely on my printers to run 24/7. I contacted Epax about their processing. You pay more for Epax, but you get what you pay for. the quality is top-notch, even with the newer E-series printers, which are more economical. You also get incredible customer support. As I mentioned before, I'm interested in 3D printing. There is something wrong with the machines and I can say with first hand knowledge and experience that Epax's support team is the best in the business. Living in America, I deal with international companies when trying to troubleshoot problems, which is complicated at best by time zone differences, language barriers, and slow response times. My overall support experience, from checking order status to fixing power issues, was excellent. Epax really cares about its customers. So if you have any problems I highly recommend contacting them at support@epax3d.com! Epax is known for sending equipment that comes out of the box pre-adjusted. This means you should be able to unpack the printer, take it to your new home, download the file and start printing. This is exactly what happened to me with my E6! I put it on the shelf and immediately started printing orders and the poor thing hasn't rested since. (The photos are my first prints out of the box!) Sometimes things change upon delivery and you really need to refocus. It's very easy considering how Epax built their build plates and once leveled they rarely become uneven again. (The same isn't true of how other print shops build their platforms; I had one that I had to reinstall after every single print before buying a mod for it, and another that was used after about every 20th print.) If you are into the polymer 3D printer market, this is the perfect machine for you, especially if you are a beginner. Runs smoothly and almost silently. It (should) be ready to use right out of the box, and if you need help, there's top-notch support available to help you get started!
