Elegoo launched their slightly larger Saturn S some time after the regular Saturn. The Saturn S is quite identical, with a 4K Monochrome LCD screen and operating at 405 nm light source. Learn about the different Elegoo Saturn and mars 3d-printers here or on the official Elegoo Saturn website. All Liqcreate resins are compatible with the original Elegoo Saturn. For the Saturn S there are some parameters. In case you want to work with a non-validated resin, a good starting point intesting are the Elegoo Saturn resin settings in the link. Contact us if you need support or have any questions.
Elegoo Saturn S resin 3D-printing parameters.
| Resin | Layer thickness | Exposure time (seconds) | Base layer count | Base layer exposure | Lift Height | Lift speed / retract speed (mm/min) | Light off-delay / bottom (seconds) |
| Premium Model | 100 µm | 4,5 | 4 | 40 | 6 | 90 / 120 | 2,0 |
| 50 µm | n/a |
For not tested resins, the original Elegoo Saturn resin parameters are a good starting point.
* Tough-X, Flexible-X and Premium flex require heavy supports, Elastomer-X requires extra heavy supports.
