Manufacturer of a wide range of 3D printers, including FDM and photopolymer technologies, China-based Anycubic is a company whose products address a variety of industries and applications, including the Photon Mono M5 discussed here. The company has become known worldwide as an established researcher, vendor, service provider, and developer of 3D printers since its founding in 2015 in Shenzen. Furthermore, Anycubic has proven its success through its expansion into markets around the world, used by 3D printing hobbyists and industry professionals alike, making it now one of the most popular 3D printer brands on the market.
Features of the Photon Mono M5
The Photon Mono M5 is a desktop, resin-based LCD 3D printer in the company’s Mono line of resin 3D printers. It is capable of printing at large volumes with a build area of 200 x 218 x 123 mm. Doubtless, the main feature of the Mono M5 is its high-resolution, ultra-precise, monochrome 10.1-inch LCD screen which lends the printer its excellent 12k printing detail – able to print down to the size of a human hair.
The Mono M5 also features a replaceable anti-scratch film for the LCD screen, and a laser-engraved aluminum build plate, ensuring that those high-quality prints stay safe during printing and removal for post-processing. The printer is available for sale as a single unit, or in combination with Anycubic’s AirPure and washing and curing stations for a total ranging from $419 to $781.
