Anycubic Photon P1 Max Brings 18.3-Liter Resin Printing to the Desktop

A big resin printer for your workshop

The Photon P1 Max is Anycubic's answer to makers who need large resin prints without stepping up to an industrial machine. Its 18.3-liter build volume is large enough for full-face masks, detailed figurines, or functional prototyping pieces that typically demand a factory-scale printer.

Print quality and precision

Anycubic uses a 9K monochrome LCD array that cures resin faster than older color screens while maintaining fine detail. The machine handles 0.05mm layers reliably, which translates to smooth surfaces on complex geometries. Long prints stay consistent because the z-axis is supported by dual linear rails and a ball screw.

Usability

Setup is straightforward. The slicer includes auto-supports and hollowing tools that work well for beginners. The vat is easy to remove and clean. Anycubic also offers an air-purification system that reduces odor during long prints.

Who should buy it

The Photon P1 Max targets small businesses, jewelry designers, and serious hobbyists who need volume without sacrificing resolution. It is not a budget entry-level resin printer, but the price is competitive against other 18-liter machines. If you regularly print large resin parts, this is a practical upgrade path.
