However, the Anycubic Wash & Cure 2.0 only offers the option to permanently mount the print bed from the Anycubic Photon and Photon S printers in wash tanks. The mount is not compatible with the build platforms of other 3D printers. Build platforms from other printers that do not fit in the holder can only be placed on the wash basket with the models facing downwards, but cannot be fixed. Provided the build platform is not too large and the models are smaller than the inside height of the wash basket. The core of the Anycubic Photon M3 Max is its large-format 3D printing capabilities, with a massive 14.7L print volume. In terms of printing experience, M3 Max is equipped with a 13.6-inch 7K monochrome screen, which can ensure the printing accuracy of models and achieve complex details. For those who frequently invest in large-scale 3D printing projects, the M3 Max also has the advantage of its intelligent resin filling function, providing a smooth printing experience without having to worry about when the material will run out. If you don’t want to buy any type of machine, you can go outside and put your models to cure under the heat of the sun.
