ANYCUBIC Wash and Cure Station 4 L

Resin prints can be awkward to clean and cure evenly, especially when you’re working with larger models or fine details. The ANYCUBIC Wash and Cure 3.0 combines both jobs in one station.

Its flexible gooseneck light is intended to direct curing towards harder-to-reach areas.

The larger wash setup is aimed at prints from compatible LCD printers, but its stated dimensions still matter when deciding what will fit.

Key specifications

This is a two-in-one washing and curing station with separate modes. The cleaning bucket has a stated capacity of 4 L, and the washing size is 165 x 100 x 180 mm. Those measurements are useful starting points, but they don’t guarantee that every model with a similar footprint will fit comfortably.

The double-layer polypropylene basket has two height settings, 100 mm and 165 mm, and is designed to let you wash a print with its platform. The listing positions the station for LCD printers sized 7.3 inches or less, and says the adjustable basket can accommodate platforms from 5.9 to 7.3 inches. Check your printer platform and model dimensions against those figures before choosing it.

For curing, the gooseneck light can be aimed at details such as a model’s upper areas or clothing hems. ANYCUBIC reports improved curing uniformity compared with the previous generation, but the listing doesn’t give a curing result for a particular resin or print. The timer is adjustable from 1 to 30 minutes, and the gooseneck mode can be toggled separately.

Who it’s for

This setup makes sense for someone who already prints with compatible resin-based equipment and wants washing and curing handled in one station rather than assembling separate devices for each task. The basket’s adjustable height and ability to wash with the platform may be useful when removing a print from the build plate before cleaning isn’t your preferred workflow.

It suits you if you want a larger stated bucket capacity and a light you can angle towards small details. It may not suit you if your printer platform or prints exceed the listed range, or if you need confirmed compatibility with a specific printer model that isn’t identified in the product details. Based on the listing details, fit is the main point to settle before buying, the text doesn’t provide a full model-by-model compatibility list.

Everyday use

A typical workflow could mean placing a supported platform and print in the basket, selecting wash mode, then switching to curing and aiming the flexible light towards a recessed or raised detail. The two modes are selected with one click, and the stated timer range gives you a way to set the cycle duration. The larger basket is also described as helping reduce IPA use, though actual consumption will depend on what you’re cleaning and how you use the station.

Compared with buying separate washing and curing equipment, this integrated approach keeps both tasks in one unit. The trade-off is that you’re choosing around a fixed wash space: a larger setup doesn’t remove the need to check the listed dimensions. Noise reduction is also claimed, but there’s no noise level provided to compare with another station.

Three specific questions

Can it wash and cure? Yes. The station has distinct washing and curing modes.

Can the build platform go in the basket? The listing says the double-layer basket supports washing with the platform, with two adjustable heights. Confirm that your platform falls within the stated range.

Can the curing time be adjusted? Yes. The timer is adjustable from 1 to 30 minutes.

Final verdict

Choose the Wash and Cure 3.0 if you want a combined wash-and-cure workflow, need the stated 4 L bucket capacity, and your printer platform and models fit the listed dimensions. Its flexible light and adjustable basket give it practical appeal for varied print shapes. Skip it if you need a confirmed fit beyond the stated printer and platform sizes, or if your parts exceed the 165 x 100 x 180 mm washing space, the product details don’t establish that they will fit.
