Creality UW-02 Wash & Cure Station (HONEST review) - for 3D Resin Printers
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 окт 2024
- I've reviewed a few large Wash & Cure machines and they're all pretty much the same, so when Creality suggested their UW-02 was a little different, I was happy to review it on my channel. And sure enough they're correct, there are a number of differences in this unit that for me place it above the others that I've reviewed.

Nice review Geoff. It does seem a bit strange that the curing speeds are so fast. Forget a rubber ring, Creality should be providing racing harnesses for the prints! Hopefully they dialed back all the speed settings in the latest model.
Yeah, a cock up all round that one. I think the speed is there for washing, which is a very clever idea, but through laziness or poor thinking this wasn't turned off for curing. Silly. My guess is the third speed now slows the turntable down to a more typical curing speed. All the best Dan 😁
Nice review and thank you for actually giving some indication of the liquid capacity and how much it fills up etc having just ordered this exact wash and cure I now know how much iso to buy!
I only came here from ebay to see what this was for.... now I know you have to wash and cure 3D printed items. You live and learn...
That's what makes life fun 😁😁😁
There is a gap in large 9-10 inch wash and cure set ups. The only other I would like to see is the uniformation sonic and cure machines.
I did cover these briefly in my GT Two review. In short... impressed 😁 ruclips.net/video/ie18N4GrMVY/видео.html
Long Live VogMan! This is the way!
Thanks for the review!! I may not have watched far enough in but I saw where you were talking about it but never heard any sort of recommendation on that.
NVM, I found another of your videos where you explain it quite well. TY :)
You could use zero bearings with a magnetic stirrer (very common in chemestry and no idea why they arnt in wash cure stations)
I think you need to give little Vogman his own channel!
Nah... he can cast better than me 😁
@@vogman well, he is a superhero...
I've had mine for about 6 months or so, I love it!! I got it just after I got my Halot One Plus is the build plate wouldn't fit into the UW-01. I also do a pre-wash in a small tub first before using the machine, that has kept my tank meths fairly clean. Also I've just noticed the mesh on my cage goes almost up to the handle unlike the cage on yours
Thanks for the review! As for the wash/cure station, I do like most of it, and I have been happy with Creality products in the past (love the extra parts) .. but having no UV LEDs' above/below is a deal-breaker for me 🤷♂
Just one thought for you Ronin... even those with under-turntable UVs have only a small array which only lights up the print maybe 20 degrees of every 360. For that reason, I always rotate the print anyway. Given this, does it matter?
Just a thought buddy. The choice is always your 😁👍👍👍
All curing stations do not lack refective surfaces.
I worked with an expensive pro-machine for a year.
That thing was painted white and all inside surfaces possible were covered in mirrors.
No windows, and rows of big lights absolutely everywhere, including the lid.
It's a headscratcher why hobby curing stations with their weak lights are all made with light absorbing insides.
I would love to see a video about printing that cuban link and other chains
It's coming soon. I'll also be casting it in solid metal 😁
I'm sure they will fix the speed issue. I love the fact that the tank lid fits on with the basket in.
My guess is the third speed is slower... more suitable for a turntable. At least I hope so 😁
@@vogman It was funny on turbo mode, watching your print spin. It's happened a couple of times with my original Anycubic wash and cure. I love the fact that the impeller is sunken so the basket is a perfect fit.
based on pictures from google, seems like its Creality UW-01 which has 3 speeds , and UW-02 have only 2
Thanks for the share.
Thats correct. And because there is only normal and fast turn-speed on this UW2 it is a no-go. I wouldn’t dare cure a large model at this speed.
Crazy mistake to make in the design
Just to point it out, the 02 have two speed buttons while the 01 have three. I just got mine recently due to the size and the sale that is currently going on. If I am wrong, correct me please. $170 beats paying $220.
Just got one from Amazon, and it is aa 2 speed job!
Great review im buying it cause of you.
Hope you enjoy it 😁
you said ethanol in your case can you elaborate on that ? you dont use isopropanol ? do you know if the uw02 can clean with water ? for water wash ?
Thanks for the review, its really helpful, especially the basket dimensions!
Glad it was helpful!
My anycubic wash and cure 2 only has one speed... but it still needs a ring to stop stuff flying off. Of course I had to model and print that myself as they don't provide one.
Does the build plate of the Uniformation fit over the wash basket?
Yes, please check this 🙏. I am about to invest in my first 3d set-up, and are thinking Uniformation GK Two and this Creality UW-02 could be a nice setup?? Especially if there is implemented a slower curgin turn-speed..AND if the build plate fits??
I'm confused...your measurements at 4:19 show 244mm as the width but Creality's marketing diagram on their website (and at time 0:34 in your video) shows 200mm???
I would have thought the rubber ring would be if the item is still wet to stop the liquid from spilling off the turn table
the XS also has its two led strips behind screens
I have the 3 speed version on the version one, I can't see any improvements on this, was hoping that I could hear it beep because my one is so obnoxiously loud
I was wondering if you've gotten your hands on the Anycubic Wash and Cure 3?
I'm curious about the internal bucket dimensions. Think we could put the whole Elegoo Mars 4 build plate in there?
How does this one stack up vs say the Elegoo Mercury X?
hello what would be your choice between the Creality UW 02 and the Phrozen Wash & Cure
Can I ask what in your opinion is the best castable resin for the money? I love your work ❤
Great video love to see more reviews 🎉
I watched both this and the Elegoo Mercury X reviews and can't decide. Between the 2, which would you endorse?
Honestly, it's personal choice. Most of these curing stations perform equally well.
I've had this since it's release and it's been great, the one annoying thing is that every time you switch modes it reverts back tot he fast speed setting. For Wash this is fine, but if you don't set it back to slow for curing then it will throw items off the plate if you start it in fast.
Interesting. Thanks for the share.
Do you have a wash and cure machine you would recommend that could work alongside the mega 8K printer
Hi my friend... After your experience with castable resins, which would you say is better? The blue cast x one or the power resin dark? I really appreciate your videos as they help us a lot congratulations and go ahead..
Unfortunately it's hard to beat Power Resins. They are very easy to print with and cast beautifully, which is why the resin is so expensive. That I could forgive but they have a poor reputation for customer care, lacking any interest in providing printer settings, etc. Shame. Bluecast on the other hand are cheaper and try very hard to help their customers... and if you use the product well, it's great. I'll be doing a X One user guide video and hopefully a giveaway in a few weeks. In the meantime though... to be 100% honest, PR is easier to use, though both cast equally well.
Can you wash and cure with water instead of the IPA , i use water washable resin .
What is the length of the wash bucket at the top (of do I need to call it the width)
Anycubic do the same supply spare barings i got 2 with mine but the newer wash and cure that came with the mono2 is more vibrations through it and prints vibrate off the turn table all the time pain in the hole! So that is my wash station and the other os the cure the smooth turning one the older one! Need to strip it down and grease it up maybe but its never been right but was free so not over fussed the wash works but is now flickering on the UV lights when washing and curing the whote curtain round the basket a couple times so think its time for the bin! Lasted 3 months not bad hahahaha😂
Do you think this would work well with a Phrozen Might 8k?
It would certainly cope with prints, yes. As for the plate, check the dimensions in the video and see if the plate will rest on it. If it doesn't, it would be easy enough to rig something with a bit a wire 😁
That’s a very nice machine right there. ❤
There are some pretty good features 😁
When you turn it off and back on, does it default to your last used setting or does it default to wash? Ideally I would like two, one dedicated for washing one for curing. The one I have now defaults to wash and it’s annoying lol.
It defaults to Wash and Quick. I only use it for curing, and I consistently forget to change the settings, sending the prints flying into the lid 🥳
Where can I get me a VOGMAN stl!?
I do sell him cheaply on Etsy. The proceeds help support my channel 😁

Hey, thanks for the purchase! 😁😁😁👍👍👍
I have the anycubic version of these- they are loud as hell. Are these ones silent in operation?
I haven't noticed any noise. It obviously isn't silent, but nothing stood out as unusual here.
Thanks for review 😅
My pleasure 😊
How can I get the 3D printable Vogman character?
Hi Grege, I do sell the Mini Vogoman STL on my Etsy store nice and cheaply. The proceeds help contribute to running my Channel. Thanks for asking 😁

.... reminds of an old gf. HAHAHA love the humor!
On 3DJake also 3 Speed buttons and 219€
Yeah, my guess is that's the new spec model. Why they sent me a 2 speed, I don't know. I guess they were cleaning out the warehouse 😁
4:29 😂😂😂😂
