在我們最近於 8 月推出 Sonic Mega 8K S 後，您可能會想知道…
最初的Sonic Mega 8K與其後續產品Sonic Mega 8K S之間真的有什麼區別嗎？
好了，這篇文章就是為了滿足你的好奇心！
那麼，什麼是相同的，什麼是不同的呢？
索尼克超級系列
Sonic Mega 8K和 Sonic Mega 8K S 均配備相同的 15 吋列印區域，具有令人驚嘆的 43 微米 8K 解析度。兩款印表機均採用獨特的 Phrozen 穿孔構建板和雙線性導軌，可提供最佳列印體驗，並使用相同的 405 nm paraLED 光源以實現最佳精度。但最重要的是，無論您的背景如何，兩者都將為您提供出色的 3D 列印體驗。
Sonic Mega 8K vs Sonic Mega 8K S？
有些人可能認為Sonic Mega 8K S只是之前 Sonic Mega 8K 的廉價版本，雖然這款螢光綠朋友確實是市場上最實惠的大幅面樹脂 3D 列印機之一，但它的意義還不止於此。
Sonic Mega 8K專為需要可靠設備來製作快速原型或產生精確且高度詳細的模型的工程師和開發人員而設計。另一方面，Sonic Mega 8K S 憑藉其堅固耐用的離型膜和閃電般的列印速度，成為微型農場和 3D 列印服務企業的生產力野獸。
對於那些尋找生產單元來列印高精度夾具、固定裝置和其他零件替代品的人來說， Sonic Mega 8K將是最佳選擇。另一方面，Sonic Mega 8K S 將成為想要提供高製造效率的客製化物件的小型企業的最佳伴侶。
標誌性建築
作為消費市場上首款 8K 列印機，Sonic Mega 8K 擁有標誌性的雙穀倉金屬框架門，可向側面打開，方便您輕鬆存取所有創作。它堅固、可靠，受到許多人的喜愛。
相反， Sonic Mega 8K S來探索其他方向。 Sonic Mega 8K S 螢光綠色壓克力蓋不是向側面打開，而是設計為可抬起，非常適合那些 XY 空間最小但 Z 軸空間更大的人。
另一個區別是觸控板的尺寸。 Sonic Mega 8K配備了 5 吋觸控屏，而 Sonic Mega 8K S 的觸控螢幕稍小一些，為 3.5 吋。
體積和尺寸
儘管Sonic Mega 8K S與其前身俱有相同的 XY 列印區域（33x18.5 公分），但它們的高度不同。 Sonic Mega 8K 的列印體積比 Sonic Mega 8K S 高 10 公分。
Sonic Mega 8K S 的額外功能
我們致力於不斷創新並提升您的 3D 列印體驗，新款 Sonic Mega 8K S 在精心開發時充分考慮了便利性和客戶體驗。因此，我們添加了一些新功能，可以顯著改善您的 3D 列印體驗。
內置滴水架
由於在列印全板或大型模型時，Mega 的建造板很容易變得超重，因此用樹脂或 FDM 列印的 DIY 滴水架可能不是最安全的選擇。因此，我們直接在印表機上安裝了一個全金屬內置樹脂滴水架。
完成列印後，只需從臂上取下建造板並將其掛在滴水架上，直到所有多餘的樹脂從模型上滴落，然後返回桶中。這將幫助您節省最後一滴樹脂並保持您的工作空間整潔。
泵和填充相容
列印大型模型最不有趣的部分之一是需要添加更多樹脂中間列印件。您不僅可能在忙碌的生活中忘記這樣做，而且如果操作不當，還可能在模型上產生不必要的移位線。為了解決這個問題，我們製作了一個附加配件，可以使用樹脂進料器自動泵送和填充樹脂，滿足泵浦和填充功能。專為Sonic Mega 8K S打造，可毫無麻煩地無縫融入 Sonic Mega 8K S 系統。您可以直接透過印表機的觸控面板進行所有設置，然後就可以開始了。
您該購買哪一款 Mega？
這絕對是您想要回答的問題，這也是您首先閱讀本文的原因。
在繼續將另一台大幅面樹脂 3D 列印機添加到您的收藏之前，您可能需要考慮您的列印習慣。您是否需要具有堅固機械結構的東西，以顯著提高極高的準確性和可重複性，特別是對於大型和詳細的模型？如果答案是肯定的，那麼Sonic Mega 8K將是您想要更多了解的產品。但是，如果您正在尋找具有可靠速度和效率的設備來進行快速生產， Sonic Mega 8K S是您的絕佳選擇。
為了獲得最佳效果，您還可以將兩台印表機與Cure Mega S和Wash Mega S配對，輕鬆對大型車型進行後處理。
關於這些印表機還有更多疑問嗎？請在下面發表評論，我們將盡力為您提供協助！

Hello: I need a replacemnent LCD for my Sonic Mega 8K printers. The Sonic Mega 8k S screen is available, but not the non-S model. Are they interchangeable?
This could get my machine bck up and running much sooner.

I personally consider my 8K is more suitable to my needs and workflows, it is consistent, larger, and more robust. Speed it not everything that you want from such a massive and amazing product. Why not enabling the resin feeder accessory to work with the Mega 8k as well? I invested in a future proof product and I feel it has been left behind. I’m pretty sure that with some thinkering, appropriate tools and guidance from Phrozen as you did with the amazing 12K upgrade kit, it is possible to get over the evident physical changes needed to support the device on the 8K version. Please don’t forget the existing segment of customer that your products already serve.

Hi Sergio,
Thank you for sharing your feedback. Regarding the Pump & Fill accessory, it requires motherboard support to function, and unfortunately, the motherboard of Sonic Mega 8K does not support this feature. However, the launch of the Mega 8K S does not mean we will stop supporting the Mega 8K. We will continue to provide customers with the necessary accessories to ensure the proper functioning of their machines.
If you have any further questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our customer service.

If the printing area is the same as 8K is it possible to upgrade 8KS to 12K LCD using 8K part?
———
Phrozen Technology replied:
Hi Marcin,
Thank you for your question. Unfortunately, it’s not possible to upgrade the Sonic Mega 8KS to a 12K LCD using parts from the Sonic Mega 8K. These two machines have different specifications and internal configurations, including their LCD setups. They are distinct models with separate components, making cross-model upgrades incompatible.
If you have any more questions or if there’s anything else we can assist you with, feel free to let us know.

Do you have any direct date on the printing capabilities between these printers? Your information implies the S is faster in printing but give now comparable metrics. Average layers/hour vs fastest mm/hour. Without knowing the exposure time and layer Heights there is no conversion. You say there is a trade off in accuracy but don’t give any measurements. I would like to see a comparison of print speed using the same resin, layer height, equivalent exposure, and model. Also if possible to qualify actually average pixel print size from each of the printers when mounted to the same workspace. I want to specify you machines for our manufacturing facility but without accurate and comparable data I cannot recomend.

Hello John, Thank you for commenting.
Hi, the result of average layers per hour we are giving out is dividing the layer count of the file by the actual printing time. The highest number that we can achieve and still produce consistent result is around 900 layers/hour which we advertised, but your experience might differ since there are multiple factors that affects your printing speed, including but not limited to the shape of the model itself that you are trying to print, the working environment of your printer (temperature, humidity etc.), and the supports you’ve created to support the model.
Although, we will not recommend our customers to dial their settings into this kind of speed for day to day use, since higher the speed may increase the chance for the releasing film to be torn apart, thus the leaking of the resin and damage of the LCD. Even though Sonic Mega 8K S by its design, can achieve and endure higher speed of printing compared to the Mega 8K.
Hope this helps.
