In this article, we will guide you through the steps of unboxing your Sonic Mega 8K. In the next article, we'll introduce you to all the components and tools included in the package.
1. Unpacking: Straight Out of the Box
This box contains 1 Sonic Mega 8K, wrapped in plastic foil, with 8 pieces of cushions used to protect the LCD 3D printer. This includes an upper cushion, a lower cushion, 4 pieces protecting the exteriors, and 2 additional pieces of cushion protecting the interior. The Sonic Mega 8K toolbox is placed inside the LCD 3D printer.
Unpack the printer
- Place the package on a flat and stable surface.
- Open the box
- Remove the strapping bands, then remove the front and back outer lid. Remove the cushioning and push out the resin 3D printer from behind.
- Take the LCD 3D printer out of the box, and place the 3D printer on a flat and stable surface.
This resin 3D printer weighs 35 kg, which is approximately 77 lbs. Make sure to ask a friend in case you need any assistance.
Remove the package materials
- Start from the top and remove the plastic wrap.
- Open up the chamber. Then carefully remove the inner cushion as well as the building plate by slicing it open with a razor blade.
The paper box inside the resin 3D printer is empty and is meant for stabilizing purposes only.
- Remove the building plate and the toolbox from the inside of the LCD 3D printer.
2. What’s in the Toolbox?
The toolbox contains essential tools for setting up the Sonic Mega 8K as well as tools to maintain your device after you’ve finished printing.
Double-check to see whether everything is included in your toolbox. Make sure to understand how each tool is used before proceeding to the next step.
-
User Manual:
The user manual contains essential information for users to set up their Sonic Mega 8K. This includes the introduction of device functions and capabilities, keynotes before printing, and a step-by-step tutorial for setting up the LCD 3D printer. -
Chamber Door Handle:
Sonic Mega 8K comes with two door handles. For safety reasons, we’ve placed the handles inside the toolbox instead of pre-installing them. Please use the Allen wrench we’ve included in the toolbox to fasten it onto the chamber door. -
Welcome Card:
The welcome card leads you to our Quick Starter Guide and Product Warranty Policy. -
Gloves:
Please avoid touching resin directly; wear PPE, including masks, goggles, and gloves, while handling resin during printing. -
Scraper Set:
Use the metal scraper for model removal and the plastic scraper for cleaning the resin vat, FEP film, or LCD screen after printing.
Avoid using the metal scraper to remove cured resin from the FEP film, as it may harm the film and adversely affect print quality.
-
Adapter:
To start your device, you will need to connect the adapter to your Sonic Mega 8K. -
Allen Wrench:
The Allen wrench included in the toolbox is intended for unscrewing and tightening the building plate while performing the Z-axis Calibration test. -
Plastic Funnel:
The plastic funnel is used for filtering out the excess resin after printing. Simply place the plastic funnel on top of the resin bottle cap, then pour the resin back into the bottle. -
USB:
Sonic Mega 8K only supports USB drive file transfer. The USB is used to store your 3D printing file. Plug it into your LCD 3D printer and you’re good to go.
