Hi guys, hows everyone going with your Titans?

I have it all set up and it looks very nice. I haven’t tried printing with it yet, havent had time to calibrate it, but i have high hopes it will do a fine job.

i’ve printed a few things, have them in my gallery on my hub, it was tricky to get set up, got me some pigments to thicken up the spot ht that should allow for increased resolution.

Printer is running great, burned through a VAT in one week of learning.

Lots of printing and more fail than successful prints, but with a new printer to me it is an issue with me learning the new system, software and inherent issues with resin printing.

I am getting better at it and think that it will be a great addition to our ‘Build Lab’.

hi all, it’s almost one month I’m printing/testing with my Titan1. I’ve just enabled it in my hub 3dmakify.

I’ve experienced a steep learning curve but with the help of the forum at the end I printed my first object with success. Soon I’ll post some picture of the printed object.

What about you in this past months?

Hi. I have a Titan 1. When I got the printer I immediately inherited a whole bunch of problems regarding their printing vat and platform. I spent weeks re-inventing the vat as well as the print platform. I am now able to print into a glass petri dish with teflon held by a special rubber/acrylic bracket. I had to corona treat the teflon to epoxy it down on to the glass, since other self adhesive teflon sheets, in my opinion, are utterly useless. I always print onto a roughened acrylic base plate which is screwed to the original print platform. I got to say, I got pretty frustrated with resin prints not adhering on the platform. This problem has now been totally eliminated. I agree with what someone else said, this was not just a ‘plug and play’. I think the makers of the equipment were too rushed in releasing the equipment even with major faults.

On the brighter side, I can now print predictably and successfully in high detail using the correct resin all the time, and this with a fairly low priced printer.

Titan really should look into some more research and development. ‘Burning through’ a new print vat is proof of a bad design, exactly what happened to me…and I don’t think Titan should make more money out of this poorly designed flex vat. If you need any help with the Titan let me know.
