LONGER Orange 10 Resin SLA 3D Printer with Parallel LED Lighting, Full Metal Body, 3.86' x 2.17 x 5.5' Printing Size, Temperature Warning with 3pcs FEP Films

i am impressed so far but have only used this for 2 days. my prints turn out really nice. i turned down support percentage otherwise clean up is difficult, i had trouble finding where my files were being sliced too, but it turns out that it is in same folder as the file you are slicing. also try to put holes in bottom or use a design used for resin machines, otherwise a lot of uncured resin will be used with print, also always keep the lid on to prevent exposure of uv light in room and from sun. after item scrapped of of build plate, rinse in alcohol. strongest i can find is 91% and second rinse container use 50% alcohol because it is cheap, and third container use water. i have lids to keep alcohol and water from spilling and evaporating, after part has been in each bath for about 20 min and shaken or spin around set item in a window that gets sun and let final curing happen. i remove supports at this step, keep toothpicks handy and spare tooth brush to pick at support areas and brush plastic away. it is ok to scrape surface with exacto knife to remove bumps from support area. average print time is between 3-8hrs. as long as lid is left on the printer wont stink up house. be sure at least a fan and a window are open so any fumes from filling, or starting model are removed.

Update 1-29-2020: first one didn’t print correctly, now the replacement has a broken motor that lifts the build plate up and down. Down waste your money on this junk, buy a name brand one and stay away from this thing. There is a reason it’s so cheap, because it’s cheaply made.Great 3D printer for the price! I had some minor issues at first but Longer customer service was amazing via Email. Thanks for all your help Kenny!

Knowing FDM printer about two years, I was going to try this LCD printer despite some reviews on Amazon. frankly to say, this is a great machine, no regrets at all! Actually I almost finished one full bottle of resin up to now, no failed prints, no other quality issues, flawless so far. Now some points to share as follow:1. 15-20 minutes I finished the setup after taking out of the box.First prints is good, just took several hours to print, remember to read and learn the instruction and process before print;2, Good slicing software, easy to use, do a good job, you need to use supports, and think the positioning of your model during the setup. One-click generates supports with cross-link enhanced structure, really helpful during using, I think this is Longer brand advantage. of course if you need advanced manipulation, maybe should try other software;3, Color Touch screen makes me to start this printer be easier, that’s why I prefer LCD printer compare to FDM, don’t expect fast printing, most of mine run several hours;4, Make sure you got full supplies, like gloves, resins, tools, card, etc… before using, UV light is good. Plz confirm wash off thoroughly with alcohol and let dry if you want to paint.Anyway, this printer I operated good condition, flawless so far, that’s why I would like to write 5-star for it.

I made a purchase of Longer 3D Printer based on their Kickstarter campaign where they were stating that this printer is 2K. I said, I can build it myself but it's already built, why not.Not that fast! Same looking printer on Amazon is 854*480 Pixels which is VERY low quality for the price and for this 3D printing technology. Monoprice Mini SLA has 2K LCD for $199. And 2K is the key point here for such a tiny printing size.Basically, these guys placed $1,5 4.5 inch 40 pin LCD (which is an ancient LCD) instead of up to $12 2.5K LCD 50 pin inside of this printer (check Taobao).I wouldn't not recommend this printer anyone because you can get 2K Monoprice Mini for $199 if you want something already built. And 2K is the key point here. This printer should not cost more than $90-$110.Very disappointed, tossed it in the garbage.Building my own 4K 10 inch Raspberry Pi with Nanodlp running the machine which I do recommend to 3D builders. Good luck everyone, and stay away from this rip off student level project.

The printer is top notch it is very good that’s not the problem the problem is the software the slicing software hopefully pretty soon they work that out and make it better!

I bought the printer on a whim that I wanted to get into SLA printing. I know it is not a true SLA as it does not use a lazer but an lcd, but the quality is leaps beyond what I was expecting. Love the printer thus far and hopefully they can make a printer with a bigger print area. I would immediately buy a printer from them with 4x the print area.

Easy to useeasy to level the build plate .I wish the SD card slot was located on the front .the fan can be loud if it needs full cooling .coming from FDM , using this with water washable low odor resin has been very nice.i print at 0.1mm for my purposes are technical and R/C stuff, but it has profiles for several resins in the 0.025mm layer height .It's nice having a small build surface for making small parts . it takes less resin to have functioning vat .the build area is about the size of an old smart phone screen .screens are available from the mfr web site , and they are also the same screen as an other brand .personally i prefer to use chitubox over the oem slicing app. it includes a sd card that has software and instructions and videos .I would probably buy the Orange 30 model over this one if I needed an other.

Printed 3 items to tune the settings and prints everything now perfect.Very good value for the money. However no response yet on how to purchase new screens, vats & build plates.

It is complex to get a good print. You need to use Chiubox, photon File Validator,and the longerware software. I can't stress enough about watching the videos on YouTube about supporting models on this printer. If you do you will get great prints but remember there is work involved to get them.

Funciona bien y es un buen punto de inicio para que empieces en la impresión en resina, no tiene la mejor calidad pero te permite crecer y aprender bastante, el problema viene cuando la usas durante un buen tiempo, el LCD tiene una vida util muy pobre y conseguir que el repuesto funcione no es sencillo. El servicio al cliente es bastante malo y me he encontrado con diversos problemas con los vendedores.

Bought this printer at Thanksgiving and it has been really great.It is not as precise as higher resolution printers but as a first step to SLA and coming from the FDM printer world, it still is very precise and I've been using it non stop for my cosplay and props.It works wonderfully!
