Anycubic Wash & Cure Lid for Filtering IPA

After some time using the same IPA in my Anycubic Wash and Cure, it starts to get contaminated with small debris. The debris sticks on your print in every hole and cave.

Time for a solution.

I printed this lid with 4 holes, 2 holes M6 to attach the pump, en 2 holes 7.2MM for a 7.5MM silicon hose.

The pump is an ordinaire 12 Volts fuel pump from a car, this is the best choice because the resistant against IPA and have a self sucking system AND they are very cheap. On the inlet I used a mesh fuel filter on the bottom and used a simple fuel filter just before the pump. The outlet is open and placed halfway in the IPA so it makes the IPA move.

The mesh filter can be cleaned from the bigger debris, the small filter needs to be replaced so now and then. There 6 pieces for 1 EU for sale.

I use a power supply for 12Volts, check the Amps of the pump before using one.

The IPA is not clean in 10 minutes, for the best result you have to let it run far at least a half day.

Happy Printing
