Anycubic P1: Industrial Grade Prosumer Resin 3D Printer

*Please refer to Launch Giveaway section for more details

Looking for broader resin compatibility, higher success rates, and finer detail? Photon P1 delivers industrial-grade reliability at a consumer-friendly price, giving you the freedom to use high-viscosity resins and achieve consistent, high-precision prints with ease.

Most desktop printers tap out at 2,000 cps. Photon P1 handles up to 8,000 cps—unlocking high-viscosity engineering resins, dental materials, and elastic composites previously industrial-only. From production dental work to collectible batching, material choice becomes creative freedom rather than technical limitation. 

Consistency begins with three systems working in concert. Wave Release Technology cuts peel force 60% for clean layer separation. Industrial-grade ball screw achieves ±0.01mm repeatability across thousands of cycles. LighTurbo 4.0 delivers >92% illumination uniformity at 112 points. Complex geometries and fine details reproduced faithfully. When print 1 succeeds, print 1,000 succeeds identically.

Print two colors or materials in a single job—no separate prints, no assembly delays. With Photon Workshop 4.0, Photon P1 can apply different parameters simultaneously, from dual-hardness dental models to multi-color figurines. The optional Dual-Material Print Kit minimizes expensive resin waste on small prints or handles full 6.5L builds. Creative freedom without compromise.

Industrial resin printers deliver exceptional precision at $1,000+ price tags that lock out most creators. Photon P1 closes the performance gap. It delivers near-industrial capability without industrial overhead. That’s the breakthrough.

At Germany’s Formnext 2025 exhibition, industry professionals, print farm operators, and advanced makers experienced P1’s near-industrial printing capabilities firsthand. The response? Consistent validation of build quality, printing stability, and material versatility. When your reputation depends on output quality, peer validation matters. P1 earned it.

This new video from Scale Model Geek is a must-watch. It offers an early look at our latest Photon Workshop 4.0, along with quick previews of validation models and ultra-fine prints that showcase the P1’s precision.

Greedy 3D highlighted the Photon P1’s outstanding performance. Its 14K screen and LighTurbo 4.0 system deliver highly detailed models. The built-in camera lets you monitor prints in real time, and the supports are easy to remove, making it easy for beginners to get started.

In this video, SpensPainting showcases the Photon P1’s wide resin compatibility and industrial-grade ball screw system. The P1 is easy to operate and delivers high-quality, detailed prints.

Industrial-grade ball screw achieves ±0.01 mm repeatability across 10,000 cycles and Z-axis precision within 0.02 mm. These aren’t launch-day specs—they hold through long-term use. The result: uniform layer thickness, smooth surface transitions, and consistent dimensional accuracy without degradation. Print 1 matches print 1,000.

Precision-Milled Steel Plate for Reliable Performance

Precision-Milled Steel Build Plate (flatness tolerance <80 μm) outperforms aluminum in flatness, wear resistance, and adhesion stability, which is critical for warp-free bases and consistent layer thickness. For high-viscosity industrial resins up to 8,000 cps, the optional Perforated Steel Build Plate lowers downforce, ensuring stable prints with challenging materials.

Precision Screen Alignment for Flawless Prints

Photon P1’s 14K LCD (16.8 μm X-axis, 24.8 μm Y-axis) captures fine details. The <70 μm installation flatness ensures uniform light projection and consistent layer thickness, directly impacting first-layer success. True precision comes from systems integration: flat LCD, optimized optics, industrial-grade motion. Components working in concert, not specs in isolation.

This system adds a high-transparency wave-textured layer above the screen, which works with the NFEP film to ensure uniform light transmission for precise curing. Wave Release Technology, which forms controlled micro-airflow as the build plate lifts. This reduces peel force by up to 60%, allowing each layer to separate smoothly while keeping adhesion stable. The result: stable adhesion, flawless surfaces, quieter operation.

More Precise, More Vertical Light

Sharper light, sharper prints. Built with an aspherical Fresnel lens, LighTurbo 4.0 achieves collimation accuracy of <2°, ensuring every beam travels straight and true to cure each layer precisely. The result: sharper layer boundaries, cleaner contours, finer details. No halos. No ghosting. Just flawlessly defined surfaces.

More Uniform Light

Full-screen rolling calibration delivers >92% illumination uniformity across 112 measurement points. Center to edge, brightness remains constant; no overexposure, no underexposure. Every inch of the build platform receives balanced exposure. Multiple prints maintain uniform size, precision, and surface consistency. Each layer aligns seamlessly, forming a flawless whole.

The Final Result

Sharper light. Smoother prints. <2° collimation and >92% uniformity translate to visible quality: crisper edges, cleaner layer transitions, finer detail resolution. Every layer cures with precision, eliminating soft boundaries, surface inconsistencies, and compromised features. The result: prints that look remarkably clean and precise. LighTurbo 4.0 perfects what light creates.

Compatible with industrial resins up to 8,000 cps, from BJD figurines and dental models to high-temperature engineering materials. Wave Release Technology and Intelligent Dynamic Lift 3.0 System adapt in real-time, adjusting height and speed based on resin viscosity. Strong adhesion. Smooth separation. Consistent curing across the entire material spectrum. Ultra-viscous industrial resins perform flawlessly on a desktop device.

Dual-component printing typically requires machines costing over $1,000. Photon P1 delivers it at a fraction of that cost, handling elastic materials and up to 8,000 cps resins with steady control.  The Perforated Steel Build Plate works to reduce downforce, improving success rates. Strong, precise, consistent results, even through long-term production use.

Two Colors. One Resin Type. Zero Interruptions

Pour two colors of the same resin type into separate tanks, set parameters in the slicer, and print. Both colors process in a single run without mid-print material swaps. The time and setup costs of sequential printing? Eliminated. Multi-color results without multi-stage workflows.
