Description
Resin Vat Drain & Funnel Stand – for Anycubic Photon M3 Premium / 30x30 Aluminum Profile
This modular holder ensures safe and clean emptying of the resin vat for an Anycubic Photon M3 Premium resin printer. The system directs resin through a funnel into a resin bottle, eliminating spills and the need for tilting the vat.
The design utilizes a vertical 30×30 mm aluminum extrusion with an 8 mm slot. A printable alternative is included, comprised of two parts (180 mm build volume compatible) joined by a special connector.
🔧 Functionality & Assembly
- V-shaped Vat Holder: Perfectly fits the angled resin vat of the Photon M3 Premium.
- Modular Funnel Mount: Compatible with the included funnel or a custom design, such as one with a filter.
- Base with Drip Catch: The stand features a raised edge to safely contain any dripping resin.
- Connection & Stability: All components are secured using standard M5 screws. The profile connector requires two screws.
📦 Included File Formats
All parts are provided in:
- .STL – ready for 3D printing
- .3MF – pre-configured assemblies (e.g., for Bambu Studio)
- .STEP & .SLDPRT – for editing in CAD software
