  • No manual levelling routine (pressure-sensing)
Things to consider
  • Anycubic's FAQ says to wear a mask and gloves when pouring resin; keep the room ventilated (Prusa KB) and plan for rinsing and UV post-curing
  • Auto-loading and air purification share one USB power port, so only one runs at a time
  • Weight, Wi-Fi and release date not verified
Who it suitsHobbyists printing miniatures and detailed parts who want automated resin handling at mid-size.
