SHENZHEN, China, July 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Anycubic today announced the presale of Photon P1 Max, a large-format resin 3D printer for advanced users, studios, and small-batch production. Combining an 18.3L build volume, intelligent automation, and support for high-viscosity resins, Photon P1 Max is designed for large prototypes, detailed models, and production runs. Presale pricing starts at $849.
Large Prints with Consistent Detail
Photon P1 Max offers an 18.3L build volume for printing large models or multiple parts in a single job. A 14-inch 12K monochrome LCD delivers fine details, while more than 92% light uniformity helps maintain consistent exposure across the entire build area.
To improve printing consistency, the machine uses a precision-ground steel build plate and a rigid screen mounting structure. The enclosed design also blocks more than 99.99% of ambient UVA light to reduce unintended resin curing.
Built for Long Print Jobs
A C7-grade ball screw, linear guide rails, and the new LighTurbo 4.0 light engine work together to maintain stable motion and consistent light output throughout long print jobs. The motion system delivers repeat positioning accuracy of ±0.01 mm.
Wave Release Technology reduces release force by more than 60% compared with standard NFEP films, making large prints easier to separate from the release film.
Intelligent Printing Assistance
Photon P1 Max ships factory calibrated and includes Intelligent Leveling System 3.0, which checks bed leveling before each print and displays real-time force values for manual adjustment when needed.
During printing, Dynamic Release 3.0 automatically adjusts lift height and speed based on release force, while Dynamic Light-Off Compensation 3.0 optimizes light-off time according to resin flow conditions.
An integrated AI inspection system monitors build plate installation, bottom-layer separation, resin level, and resin residue. AI detection is disabled by default and displays a recording notification when enabled.
Ready for High-Viscosity Resins
Photon P1 Max supports resins with viscosities of up to 8000 cps and includes preset profiles for Anycubic resin materials.
A 1,900 ml temperature-controlled resin vat maintains temperatures of up to 35°C during printing, helping keep resin performance consistent throughout long jobs. The capacity is sufficient to complete a single 300 mm model without refilling.
Simplified Daily Operation
Several updates make daily operation easier, including quick-release build plate and resin vat, a tool-free removable exposure screen, a resin drip hanger, and an improved pouring spout for cleaner resin handling. The hinged lid stays open at any angle beyond 45°, and operating noise remains at or below 45 dB. AirPure 2.0 is available as an optional accessory for odor control.
Presale Pricing and Availability
Photon P1 Max enters presale on July 22 at 10:00 AM, with pricing available in three stages:
- July 22 – August 3: $849 & 3 Exclusive Bonuses
- August 4 – August 11: $899 & 3 Exclusive Bonuses
- August 12 – August 31: $959 & 3 Exclusive Bonuses
Complimentary gifts will no longer be available after Sep 1st. More information and presale ordering are available at Anycubic official store.

About the Film: "Chiikawa the Movie: The Secret of Mermaid Island"
One day, Chiikawa and Hachiware are relaxing in the square when Usagi shows up with a flyer stuck to their face. The flyer turns out to be an invitation to a "special island" — promising easy monster-hunting jobs, 100x the usual rewards, and unlimited free ramen and sweets. Tempted by the offer, the gang sets sail. But what awaits them on the island is far more than they bargained for...
