Elegoo Saturn 4 Ultra 16K resin printer drops to $399 in limited sale
The high-resolution desktop resin printer, which earned an Editor's Choice award, is available at a 39% discount through Elegoo's promotional event ending September 29.
A significant markdown on a feature-rich resin 3D printer is available for a limited time through Elegoo's promotional event. The Elegoo Saturn 4 Ultra 16K can be purchased for $399, representing a 39% reduction from its standard retail price of $649.99. Customers should act quickly, as the sale concludes on September 29.
The Saturn 4 Ultra 16K represents an enhanced iteration of the model that underwent testing and received an Editor's Choice designation based on its strong capabilities. This pricing brings an already well-equipped and reasonably priced resin 3D printer to an even more attractive cost point. Key enhancements over the previous version include an integrated vat heater and improved Wi-Fi functionality.
The printer features a 4-inch capacitive touchscreen positioned on its front panel, providing access to multiple integrated intelligent functions designed to facilitate printing operations. The build platform measures 211.68 x 118.37 x 220mm, slightly more compact than the original Saturn 4 Ultra but only marginally so.
A 10-inch 16K LCD screen serves as the core imaging component. Rather than functioning as a traditional display, this element acts as a mask controlling UV light transmission through each successive layer of liquid resin during the curing process. The screen delivers 11,520 x 5,120 resolution, translating to 14-micron accuracy—substantially finer than the diameter of a human hair, which measures approximately 70 microns. This represents an improvement over the original Saturn 4 Ultra's 12K screen specification.
The integrated vat heater constitutes a meaningful upgrade, enabling users to sustain optimal resin temperatures for consistent printing results, even in cold conditions, maintaining a minimum of 86°F or 30°C. The printer incorporates mechanical sensors that prevent plate collision with the screen during failed prints. A tilt-release mechanism repositions the entire tank to sequentially remove resin layers, achieving a print speed of 150mm/hr. Additional features include power loss recovery to preserve print progress during electrical interruptions and an onboard camera enabling print monitoring and time-lapse video creation.
At $399, the current pricing for the Elegoo Saturn 4 Ultra 16K represents compelling value for an upgraded version of a highly regarded resin 3D printer. With the promotional period ending September 29, prospective buyers have only several days remaining to take advantage of this offer.
