The Anycubic Photon Mono SQ is a distinctive medium‑format monochrome‑LCD resin printer, and selecting the right anycubic photon mono sq resin is essential to take full advantage of its expanded build area and high‑intensity 405 nm UV light engine. With its 128 × 120 × 200 mm build volume, 3.5K monochrome LCD, and high‑precision 51 µm pixel size, the Photon Mono SQ offers a unique balance of print speed, accuracy, and workspace that sets it apart from other printers in the Photon Mono series. This combination makes it ideal for users who need more room for engineering parts, dental models, prototypes, or multiple small components printed in a single batch.
Because the Photon Mono SQ uses a powerful monochrome LCD with strong UV transmission, it requires resins that respond efficiently to fast, high‑energy curing. The right anycubic photon mono sq resin will deliver crisp edges, stable dimensional accuracy, and smooth surface quality across the entire enlarged build platform. Liqcreate provides optimized exposure settings for several materials tested directly on the Photon Mono SQ, ensuring predictable curing behavior and consistent results even on larger prints where uniformity is critical.
The printer’s technical design — including its reinforced Z‑axis, high‑output UV LED array, and durable monochrome screen — makes it well‑suited for engineering‑grade photopolymers, modeling resins, and specialty materials. Choosing the correct anycubic photon mono sq resin directly influences print speed, mechanical strength, detail sharpness, and overall workflow efficiency. For users who need assistance selecting the ideal resin or fine‑tuning exposure parameters for this specific machine, Liqcreate’s technical team can provide Photon‑Mono‑SQ‑optimized guidance. A select group of resins was optimized for the Anycubic Photon Mono SQ. Since the basics of most monochrome Anycubic resin 3D-printers are similar, a good starting point would be the settings that we have published for the Anycubic Photon Mono.

About the Anycubic Photon Mono SQ
Image by Anycubic: The new Anycubic Photon Mono SQ
The Anycubic Photon Mono SQ is Anycubics latest addition in its resin 3D-printer offering in 2021. With a build size of 128 x 120 x 200 mm (L x W x H) and 3K resolution, the Anycubic Photon Mono SQ is a totaly different machine than we have seen before. Usually resin 3D-printers have a rectangle shape with one side being much longer. With the new Anycubic Photon Mono SQ and 3K resolution, the build platform is almost a square. Which will make it easier in fitting bigger parts. Its monochrome LCD screen has a longer life-time than conventional RGB screens present in the older generation MSLA resin 3D-printers. Additionally the exposure times are much faster, which makes it easier to process slower resins, like the Liqcreate DLP and SLA range. Unfortunately at the time of writing there are no settings verified yet for the Anycubic Photon Mono SQ. As most Anycubic machines work similar, a good starting point would be to use the settings for the Anycubic Photon Mono. Settings will be published on this page when available. Contact us if you have any questions or when you need help with settings for the Anycubic Photon Mono SQ or other resin based 3D-printers.
