Title
Purchase of Phrozen 4k Mighty Resin Printer
Proposer
Tim Parnell and 3D room management
Date proposed
11 July 2022
Date for Decision
28 July 2022
Cost
£508 No extra costs as the resin/curing/cleaning and slicing is already covered by existing infrastructure
What is being asked for
Purchasing a larger volume 3D resin printer.
Why/how this will be good to have
Simple and efficient to use like the current Sonic Mini, but allowing larger print volume. The current Sonic Mini 4K has been very easy to use, compared to the old D7, and is perfect for the space, and is generating a lot of interest with new members.
The size is somewhat restrictive, all right for miniatures, but larger pieces are not really practical.
This new printer would allow resin quality and a build plate around half the size of the Ender.
200 x 125 x 220 mm versus 134 x 75 x 130 mm (Sonic Mini 4k) This is an increase of approx 250%
We can print in parts, but a lot of stuff in now bought as pre-supported stls, this can make sub-slicing difficult.
for reference the Ender build plate is 220 x 220mm.
This would benefit our members by allowing them to print larger 3D resin prints at higher quality.
