Sovol 3D Printer Resin Vat Anodized Aluminium with FEP Film & Steel Ring Preinstalled, Durable Metal Frame Resin Tank (Photon Mono 4K)

Yes, Anycubic ships a cheap plastic resin vat with every 3D printer they make. Think of that resin vat as you free back-up vat, for whenever THIS resin vat fails you, which, so far, is NEVER. Sovol's resin vat has a metal frame with actual measuring gradients reliefed inside the vat, and unlike with Anycubic's resin vat and FEP film replacements, anyone with an Allen wrench set can easily replace the FEP film — and that alone — without having to replace the entire bottom of the vat.Sovol's resin vat also comes with form-fitting, protective vat covers — top and bottom — to protect your FEP film whenever it's not at work in your printer.FEP film eventually fails, but this resin vat can extend its lifespan and usefulness considerably. Save money AND get better dependability with Sovol here!

quality, sturdy easy to replace the FEP film. Aluminum frame. Highly recomend!

I have an Anycubic Photon Mono and these fit fairly well in place of the original vat. Much stronger material, and the benefit of being able to change the film is awesome. But be careful when unscrewing the screws as they strip very easily. Using the hex tool included with the vat, I stripped one of the screws the very first time I removed the plate. It is possible that the screw is simply installed too tightly or it could be that the hex tool included is slightly too small for the screw head. Fortunately I purchased the two pack so I could just go to the next vat and I will have to contact customer care to see if they have screws available. Not a really big deal just pretty annoying. For the most part all of the Sovol products that I've purchased have been really good! These vats are certainly a much better value for the money then buying the vats that are necessary for the Anycubic Photon Mono since you cannot just replace the film alone on that printer's vat.

I have an anycubic photon mono 4k printer.My fep got damaged and I went to replace it, and found out then that they use proprietary (expensive and more to the fact wasteful since you have to replace the the holders with the sheet) feps. So I looked at alternatives and this was mentioned as a good, or at least formerly good one to get. I considered getting it directly from the manufacturer, but I like knowing that if I'm not happy from an amazon order that returns are usually pretty simple.I was hesitant to order this after reading reviews (black finish coming off, protective sheets not removed before install, that they've changed their design and aren't as good of a deal as before. From these reviews I was hoping I'd get one of the green ones, which seem to have a finish that won't rub off.On the positive side mine came in good condition (no random poor machining, and no protective covering left on). I do see the issue with the paint rubbing off when cleaning, and that's just using a paper towel to wipe off resin, not even using IPA. I would say that's a pretty significant issue that they should have fixed by now.For fit, I saw comments ranging from didn't fit to was a perfect fit for the mono 4k. Well it does fit. Not as nicely as the original factory one, and the pour spout is not as well designed. One screw fully goes into the socket, and the other is a bit in no-man's land (not off by much but enough). But even if you jiggle it and change the orientation, it still covers the whole screen and the build plate fits in it without scrapping. I do miss the fit of the original since it went in and you knew exactly how it fit, and pouring out resin was slightly less of a mess.As for quality, this thing is so much more solid than the factory plastic one that came. I also have used the silicone as a base to sit on when it's outside of the printer to avoid scratching the bottom.If I ever get into using multiple resin baths, than I'd definitely look into getting another ones of these.We'll see if my opinion changes when it comes time to change the fep for the first time, since they now want their proprietary pre-drilled ones. On the other hand, they also link directly to a template you can print off of Thingiverse so that you can get blank sheets and cut/drill them yourself.Overall positive experience, but has room to improve.

I purchased a used mono 4k from Facebook. Once I tried to use it I discovered some issues. One was it had a screen issue the other was a broken vat liner. The fep is not designed to be replaced on the stock unit. This solvo unit fit the bill. It's set up to use cheap replacement screens rather then using a new vat. I liked it well enough I bought 2 one for abs like resin and the other for normal resin so I don't have to clean them as often. And it has the silicone caps to keep debris out of the tray and protect the liner on the bottom. Highly recommend. And it fit my mono 4k just as good as the original

I didn't set out to buy a pair of resin vats when I was ordering supplies for my Elegoo Mars, but I'm so glad I did. I hate cleaning the tanks to switch resins, so I'd try to print everything with one color before finally getting to the point where it didn't work anymore. This basically solves that problem. Now I can swap out resins quickly without having to clean the tank each time. This purchase was more than worth it!Of course, you have to be careful when moving them because the resin can still slosh around and spill. Don't do like I did and forget about that part, or you'll be scraping resin off your workbench for ages.Like others have said, the silicone covers don't fit the Mars tanks because they're smaller than the stock tank. That was only slightly annoying because I didn't have a cover for my Mars tank, but I can probably get covers for that one elsewhere or just print one with my FDM printer.The only thing I would change about this is I wish the bottom covers were more rigid. Then I'd feel more comfortable setting them down on my storage racks without worrying that the FEP film might get pressed on the wrong way. Of course, I guess I can just print a tray to set them on.
