Anycubic Photon with Mac. I do all of my printing from a Mac. The main piece of software which you will use to generate print files, Chitubox, is Mac compatible. CHITUBOX team continually improves its slicer by listening to users and adding new features. The introduction of CTB file format and enhanced processing speed are critical for large format MSLA printers like Phenom. We are excited to work with them and we look forward to future updates.

I had a chance to try it and am getting the same issue. There is flex if you push and pull on any machine, like my 4030 CNC miller and my aluminum Ender3. Remove, clean, reseat and tighten the four screws. Possibly faulty Mainboard. The flex was due to the sliding block with the 3 bearings on it getting angled when the screw holding the middle eccentric one becomes loose and you re-tighten it at a slight angle. This indicates an LCD screen physical connection problem. ️ ️ We have received lots of feedback since the first statement. If the lead screw is wrong then it will make the Z axis move more or less depending on the pitch and thread angle. If you have a small USB key, you can plug it directly to the mainboard for testing, (Not recommended as a permanent solution.). (loose or bad connection, causing random resets). It will work but will leave some resin behind. A few of them look fine, others have a very distorted appearance to the model, and the bulk of them are just a snowy white mess. :). You signed in with another tab or window. 'No TE signal for 2K LCD' LCD screen flickering during print or corrupted and shifted layers or artifacts. Learn more. Any suggestions? When I think of hazy I think of translucent. Anycubic photon - Bed ahesion..working too well. Otherwise it looks like a clear window. It takes some trial and error to get it right.
Anycubic's Photon uses its own proprietary slicer. Not sure if that is normal. Download the software then install it on your computer. (build plate assembly issue), Slicer does not display STL. I'll try that but I'm not keeping my hopes up that manual hand rotation of the motor for settting Z=0 vs by the stepper driver will change anything. Checking the Photon file reveals no problems. If you tap it with your finger, it should be as tight as a snare drum. Like I said, I have re-levelled and re-zeroed the machine several times after the issue appeared. Solved, the problem is that I like to touch more of the account without reading, in the look ratio part you have to leave the parameters as they come standard (x 68.04, y 120.96, z 150). GitHub is home to over 50 million developers working together to host and review code, manage projects, and build software together. So if the filename is Slices.photons, then it will also create a ._Slices.photons file. The lead screw raises and lowers, but does not provide structural stability..all that occurs with those bearings and that vertical aluminum race.
I can with 100% certainty claim the bed is leveled correctly. You mentioned that other files do the same thing..I think the problem is with your printer. Photon Workshop.
Screen cable broken / sheared during shipping. Included USB stick is faulty. Cookies help us deliver our Services. (usually usb related). I have updated the firmware with the latest official one as well with no difference. Am I wrong? I payed good attention to how the pritner is printing and I found an issue: the bed moves lower than it should and bends slightly, and bends back as it goes up to move down again for the next layer. The lever on your Z stop switch could have been bent over time so it allows the plate to move further down. (Update 15-07-18). Like Carl said, it should be as clear as a window.
Cdl license number format. I fixed the 'flex' but it fixed none of my issues. If any islands are found I then go back to Prusa Slicer and manually add the missing supports. Initially the FEP film doesn't let go and flexes a little but eventualy does, but first pulls the build plate from the adjusted angle.
The Mac version of the Anycubic slicer crashes a fair bit on me as well - it refused to do auto supports on a simple 1cm cube for me without crashing last week.
Scale / Rotate / Move the model (Optional).
Went back to Anycubic's and tried rotating on the Y then doing auto support and that worked. I think this may actually be a function of macos, because the ._Slices.photons file persists even if it's copied over via Finder. I'm worried perhaps the first layer(s) is too close to the FEP film this way and may cause the first layer to adhere to both the build palte and to the FEP film as well, among other issues such as mechanical stress on the mechanical components, very subtle bending and danger of cracking the LCD display.This is the first issue.
Here is the build plate during printing the second print: https://i.imgur.com/LAzWX8z.jpg. The Tearing Effect Signal (TE) is a feedback signal from the LCD Controller to MCU. © 2020 ANYCUBIC 3D Printing
When I plug in my USB to my printer and select print, the screen goes black and white (salt and pepper battle) and I have to restart my machine. If not, tune it to around those figures. Notice the sharp slope.Now this is how my Photon has printed it, twice. YoutubeVideo. Only occurs on certain prints, depending on placement and/or geometry. These problems may have appeared when the other repairs to the printer were being made.
Anyone else having trouble with auto support with this slicer? It may be a small degree off, and could be leaning forward or to the sides, or a combination. Hi guys. I then open the sliced file in Photon File Validator and verify no islands are present. Check printer driver reference voltage is between 1.07V to 1.16V. Wanting ANYCUBIC Photon Mono X support Łukasz 12 Days+. 3) the LCD will not display any images so nothing prints at all. Everything about the Photon series printers from Anycubic! The prints come out as if the print bed is angled, lower towards the door and higher towards the other side. My only guess is because the build plate moves lower than it should, the print stick to both the build plate and FEP film.
Replace entire integrated motor lead screw assembly. Seems to me that is the only common link to all the issues is the new motor and lead screw.maybe the new lead screw has a different thread pitch or angle? Good as such. I can bend it (tilt) a degree or two, not move (shift) up or down. Second issue. Thanks.I don't know just how tight a snare drum is, but my film is tight enough to make a drum sound. When you open the cover, can you move the build plate up and down with your hand?
Check Onboard LCD connector, replace if damaged and test. I also assumed haze is due to mechanical and chemical wear of the film caused by long UV exposure and mechanical abrasion from leftover semi-hardened resin particles during printing, not leftover resin on it or dried alcohol. A simple fix is to add 4 washers as spacers to the 4 screws that secure the build plate to the ball joint assembly. Video instructions for checking USB cable. Once all the resin is rinsed away I jut let it air dry. (occurs on certain files, firmware issue, downgrade to v4.0.11 to fix), Loose print bed head / print head too short. Filenames on USB stick must not contain special characters as the Photon will not read them. By using our Services or clicking I agree, you agree to our use of cookies. Squares print rhomboid, circles are skewed. Tighten the two screws that hold the motor. Complete list of onscreen error codes, probable causes and solutions as provided by Anycubic. Non random layer artifacts visible on surfaces no matter what orientation of print. If I try to select any of them, one of a few things happens (even with the ones that look fine): 1) the machine will freeze completely and I have to reboot. Faulty internal USB cable. The 70% stuff you get at drug stores is garbage and useless for resin cleaning and removal. If problem still occurs you might have defective USB extension cable or faulty mainboard. This should be your first point of contact for faulty machines, some of the fixes here may void your warranty, proceed at your own risk! First print came up without nthe new issue I mentioned in post #12 that 'the prints come out as if the print bed is angled' but it did have the issue with
