Review on πŸ–¨οΈ EPAX E10 Photocuring Monochrome: Advanced 3D Printing Technology with Large Printing Volume by Chris Bowden

Revainrating 5 out of 5

First major printer that worked for me.

I've had bad luck with large printers because the LCD screens seemed too flat for them and caused smudges. The E10 solved that problem - not only did it print straight out of the box in four minutes, but I made hundreds of parts with it. The results are as detailed as my smaller printers. Also, this printer is significantly faster than my Mars - the exposure is exactly 22% faster. I measured them both and the E10 has more light output. Also, this printer prints according to the part size, while most of my older printers required file adjustments to do this. This printer has a network interface that allows me to run a print farm and start and control printing from another device. Room. I no longer have to pull out flash drives, download files, and run back to the printer to download a file. I also like that this printer is quiet - I had the Mars before deciding to replace it with the E6 and E10 - the fan ran when the printer wasn't printing. The E10 is silent when not typing. The E6 build plate is secured with four screws and is less likely to dislodge from the tram when hard impressions are removed. In fact, mine never failed. My Mars and Photon had a ball mount and I had to keep it aligned as it would move if I stuck an imprint on it. Pretty high exposure setting. So it was very reliable. So the question is: if you could only have one printer, would it be this one? I think so. But if you can have two printers, I would advise you to buy E6 and E10. When printing small parts, it's also good to have a smaller tray that doesn't require as much resin to start printing.

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • Long delivery time
