Elegoo Jupiter 2 vs. Elegoo Saturn 4 Ultra 16K
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
- The Elegoo Saturn 4 Ultra 16K is in a cheaper price class (€300 to €600) than the Elegoo Jupiter 2 (€600 to €1,200).
- The Elegoo Jupiter 2 has the larger build volume (14.7 l instead of 5.5 l), so it can print larger parts or more parts per job.
- The Elegoo Saturn 4 Ultra 16K has the smaller pixels (14 x 19 µm instead of 20 x 26 µm), so it can reproduce finer detail across the surface.
- The Elegoo Jupiter 2 has the larger screen (14 instead of 10 inches).
- Automatic resin refilling is only listed by the manufacturer for the Elegoo Jupiter 2.
- The Elegoo Saturn 4 Ultra 16K is considerably lighter (16.1 kg instead of 28.9 kg).
