Anycubic Photon Mono M7 Max vs. Anycubic Photon P1 Max
Both resin printers compared directly. The lower price, the larger build volume and the smaller pixels (finer XY resolution) according to the manufacturer are marked in green.
The key differences
- Both are in the same price class, but the Anycubic Photon Mono M7 Max is cheaper in the manufacturer's shop (€649 instead of €849).
- The Anycubic Photon P1 Max has the larger build volume (18.3 l instead of 14.7 l), so it can print larger parts or more parts per job.
- The Anycubic Photon P1 Max has the smaller pixels (24.8 x 24.8 µm instead of 46 x 46 µm), so it can reproduce finer detail across the surface.
- The Anycubic Photon P1 Max levels automatically, while levelling on the Anycubic Photon Mono M7 Max is manual (4-point levelling) according to the manufacturer.
- Automatic resin refilling is only listed by the manufacturer for the Anycubic Photon Mono M7 Max.
- According to the manufacturer, only the Anycubic Photon P1 Max has a wired network port (LAN).
