The Elegoo Mars 2 Pro is a resin-based 3D printer with plenty of tricks up its red acrylic hood.
Elegoo Mars 2 Pro review: Design & set up
Elegoo has also provided a mini tool kit that contains everything you need to jump right into printing, such as a metal scraper for removing prints from the build plate, a plastic scraper for removing any failed prints that adhered to the delicate FEP film , Allen keys to level the build plate, a USB stick to load STL files onto, and even replacement FEP sheets in case you pierce through the one already installed – something that wasn’t included in the Elegoo Saturn’s tool kit.
The USB port is located on the front of the machine, just underneath the 3.5-inch color touchscreen LCD, which is much easier to access than other printers that place the USB port on the side or even the rear of the printer. This way you can quickly load new files in without moving the Mars 2 Pro around.
The size of the build plate will dictate the size of your prints and the build volume – so due to the size of the Elegoo Mars 2 Pro, prints of multiple, smaller models would be best. The Elegoo Mars 2 Pro is on the smaller size, but as previously stated, this isn’t uncommon for resin-based printers as the build plate has to be fully submerged in resin, and larger printers need to accommodate much larger resin tanks which makes them better suited for workshops than a home environment.
