TCL CSOT, the world’s second-largest display panel maker, used the 2021 World UHD video industrial conference to unveil a number of new display solutions including two 8K panels and new backplane technology. The event was held May 8-10th in Guangzhou, China with the theme: “Ultra HD world, more colors in life”.

The first innovation has to do with a display’s backplane technology – i.e. the transistors, capacitors and leads fabricated on glass to modulate the light transmitted through each LCD pixel. Transistors can be fabricated with semiconductor materials such as amorphous silicon (a-Si), low-temperature polysilicon (LTPS), or more recently, Indium Gallium Zinc Oxide (IGZO). IGZO offers performance in between a-Si and LTPS and can be used on large substrates, an area where LTPS can’t be used. IGZO is needed for 8K panels to reach a refresh rate of 120 Hz.

As a result, CSOT has produced the world’s first 85” 8K 120Hz 1G1D LCD TV screen with the 1G1D technology. Specifications include an 8-domain pixel structure for wide viewing angles, 4.5% transmission, which is better than most 8K panels, and a contrast ratio of 5000:1 using an HVA mode liquid crystal – extremely good for the native display.

A second innovation is what they call the “Star Obsidian” screen. This refers to a miniLED backlight configuration. The use of thousands of miniLEDs instead of dozens of standard LEDs in the backlight is a trend being adopted in the premium display segment – from tablets to TVs. By having thousands of LEDs, the effective ‘resolution’ of the backlight increases dramatically allowing for better control of the spatial distribution of the light. This leads to higher contrast, brighter screens, and a dramatic reduction in unwanted halo effects (a halo of light around bright objects against a dark background). The goal is to approach the performance of OLED in an LCD panel.

CSOT’s new 75” 8K MLED Star Obsidian screen was revealed at the event. While the number of LEDs was not revealed, the number of dimming zones was: >5,000. This produces a contrast ratio of >1,000,000:1. Brightness and color gamut were not specified other than “high”.

Finally, CSOT highlighted a 15.6” UHD resolution notebook panel (376 ppi). It has an ultra-thin border (1.4mm) and achieves 100% of the DCI-P3 color gamut with 500 nits of brightness. It is fabricated on an LTPS backplane.

Corning’s newest display glass innovation – Corning® Astra™ Glass – fills an important niche in the evolving world of high-performance displays. Manufacturers will use the glass as a substrate in panels for large-screen 8K technology TVs and other high-performance devices, meeting the demands of customers who want the most lifelike display imagery possible.

For many years, the preferred transistor material for the LCD industry has been amorphous silicon – called a-Si for short. A-Si transistors work beautifully in this application, even up to resolutions of 8K. Corning® EAGLE XG® Glass has led the industry as a substrate for a-Si panels since 2006. EAGLE XG Glass is expected to continue to support the evolution 8k displays over the coming years. However, in some areas the technology necessary to deliver 8K displays is evolving and this evolution is requiring some panel makers to use glass substrates with even-higher levels of thermal and dimensional stability.

A different material – low-temperature polysilicon, or LTPS – proved up to the task, but required glass substrates to endure temperatures of up to 600 degrees Celsius, much hotter than the a-Si panel. Corning Lotus™ NXT Glass, widely available since 2013, gives manufacturers the ideal option for these LTPS mobile electronics devices.

Oxide TFTs are now being adopted by a growing number of panel manufacturers for both organic light-emitting diode (OLED) displays and liquid crystal displays (LCD) with higher electron mobility than amorphous silicon. Oxide panels offer brighter, sharper resolution than a-Si panels and a lower production cost than LTPS, making them well-suited for enabling 8K televisions and other high-performance devices.

Astra Glass is also optimized to reduce sludge during the customer etching process – especially important in smartphone and tablet production. This helps lower both waste and customer costs, both factors that should help support the growing affordability of 8K technology.

As the TV industry evolves, Astra Glass will be a crucial component in both oxide LCD and OLED TVs, as well as in high-performance notebooks and tablets. As part of Corning’s display glass portfolio, it gives panel makers even more options, helping usher in a future of stronger, thinner, faster images with richer colors and an immersive experience across a wide array of devices.

While the first TVs supporting 8K Ultra HD resolution were unveiled at CES 2019 and went on sale later that year, the number of models supporting the super-high-definition resolution and are set to proliferate this year, particularly at the top-end of the market. The upcoming 8K displays include Sony"s Z9J Master Series LED TVs, two new QLED models from Samsung and the Z1 OLED line from LG.

Meanwhile, Chinese electronics manufacturer TCL Technology Group Corp. is pursuing 8K more aggressively than its larger competitors, rolling out the 8K resolution capability for all of its new mid-range 6-series TVs as well as its high-end panels.

One issue constraining 8K adoption, however, is a lack of video content that supports the higher-end resolution. The primary resolution for the bulk of content offered by both broadcast and cable networks remains 1080p, and most content has yet to reach 4K resolution. However, like 4K TVs before them, 8K TVs can perform a process called upscaling, which increases the pixel count of a lower-resolution image to allow for better overall picture quality. TV manufacturers are hopeful this will entice enthusiast TV buyers to upgrade to 8K TVs and watch their HD or 4K content upscaled till 8K content becomes more mainstream.

Aside from bumping up the resolution, TV manufacturers are also actively advancing LED technology to further improve picture quality and brightness in their new panels. Both Samsung and LG are set to launch a line of mini LED TVs, which drastically shrink the traditional LED modules that most modern LCD TVs use to produce their images. This results in better brightness, higher contrast ratio and lower power consumption compared to conventional LCD TVs with regular LEDs.

TCL, which was the first company to offer mini LED TVs in 2020, is advancing the technology further in its new range of TVs. This year, it is introducing a new panel branded as "OD Zero," because the gap between the display and backlight system is zero millimeters. TCL claims this will result in an ultra-slim display with tens of thousands of mini LEDs.

Sony, by contrast, is not jumping onto the mini LED bandwagon and is instead focusing on increasing the brightness on its new range of OLED, or organic LED, panels. OLEDs offer superior image quality to traditional LED TVs, but lag the competition in brightness. LG also announced a new range of OLED TVs to go along with its new mini LED panels.

Sony, which was one of the earliest TV-makers to use Google LLC"s Android TV operating system, is now going to be among the first to use the company"s new Google TV platform. The new Sony Bravia XR TV lineup will offer Google TV, which was previously only available through Google"s own Chromecast device. TCL TVs, which typically run on Roku Inc."s operating system, will also roll out a line of panels running on Google TV later this year.

Microsoft Corp."s new Xbox Series X and Series S and Sony"s new PlayStation 5 video game consoles feature new technologies that take advantage of the HDMI 2.1 standard. While most mid- and high-range TVs launched last year included at least one HDMI 2.1 port, few managed to take advantage of every single feature in the new devices. This changes with 2021 TVs, as panels from every major manufacturer are set to include HDMI 2.1 ports as well as compatibility with next-gen gaming features.

TV Display BOE television displays cover 23.6-inch to 110-inch products, with maximum resolutions of 8K and 10K. They feature ultra HD, super narrow border, and high image quality. Products are extensively used in smart home appliance, entertainment, business, education, finance, and other fields.

SHENZHEN, China, May 26, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- ELEGOO, a leading company specializing in the research, development, and production of 3D printers, today launched the Saturn 2 8K MSLA Printer, the first 8K printer in its product portfolio, at a competitive price of US$500. It also unveiled a new series of 8K resins, its latest Mercury XS Bundle Washing and Curing machine, and the Neptune 3 FDM printer. The latest product lineup will be available for purchase from May 28, 2022, 2:00 PM UTC at ELEGOO Official Store.

ELEGOO"s Saturn 2 8K is equipped with a gorgeous 8K 10-inch mono LCD screen, which the company has jointly developed with Innolux, a subsidiary of the industry-leading Foxconn Technology Group, a professional TFT-LCD panel manufacturer and a supplier of the Apple company. Measuring 51.5% larger than the Mars series" 6.6-inch screen, the Saturn 2 8K"s screen delivers even more clarity and precision for 3D printing tasks. Plus, with a screen resolution reaching 7680*4320 pixels, Saturn 2 8K is more than capable of reproducing the exquisite details needed for realistic 3D models.

Recognizing the delicate nature of an 8K screen, ELEGOO"s Saturn 2 8K has a replaceable 9H tempered film to guard against wear and tear. 9H tempered glass resists scratches from 9H pencils, the hardest standard grade of lead. As a result, the Saturn 2 8K is highly durable and has an extended screen life compared to other devices on the market.

Equipped with the industry"s first combination optical design of FCLS (Fresnel Collimating Light Source), a patented technology that was independently developed by the ELEGOO R&D team, the Saturn 2 8K overcomes the large-angle problem of typical COB light sources and the light spot problem of matrix light sources by adopting the patented Fresnel lens, an optical lens design technique that limits the light angle under 5 degrees. This results in sharper and more realistic printed models.

Working with ELEGOO"s new 8K standard and water washable resins, the Saturn 2 8K will deliver the best printing outcomes. In addition to the 8K resins, ELEGOO also introduced the new thermochromic resin, which changes from grey to purple at 50 degrees Celsius and returns to its original color when cooled.

ELEGOO also released new iterations of highly popular products in its portfolio. A step up from the popular Neptune 2, the Neptune 3 printer is priced at $209.99, making it the most affordable option among 3D printers with features of RSG (Resistance Strain Gauge) Auto Leveling System, Filament Runout/Clog Detector and taking less than 10 minutes to install. In tandem, ELEGOO has launched its new Mars 3 Pro LCD Printer and Mercury XS Bundle Clean and Cure machine, priced at $300 and $180 respectively — making them highly cost-effective 3D printing products.

In both LCD and OLED displays, producing these cells – which are highly complex – is by far the most difficult element of the production process. Indeed, the complexity of these cells, combined with the levels of investment needed to achieve expertise in their production, explains why there are less than 30 companies in the whole world that can produce them. China, for instance, has invested more than 300 billion yuan (approximately $45 billion USD) in just one of these companies – BOE – over the past 14 years.

Panox Display has been involved in the display industry for many years and has built strong and long-term partner relationships with many of the biggest OLED and LCD panel manufacturers.

JDI (Japan Display Inc.) was established on November 15, 2011, as a joint venture between the Industrial Innovation Corporation, Sony, Hitachi, and Toshiba. It is dedicated to the production and development of small-sized displays. It mainly produces small- and medium-sized LCD display panels for use in the automotive, medical, and industrial fields, as well as personal devices including smartphones, tablets, and wearables.

Although Sony’s TVs use display panels from TCL CSOT (VA panel), Samsung. Sony still produces the world’s best micro-OLED display panels. Sony has many micro OLED model such as 0.23 inch, 0.39 inch, 0.5 inch, 0.64 inch, 0.68 inch, 0.71 inch. Panox Display used to test and sell many of them, compare to other micro OLED manufacuturers, Sony`s micro OLEDs are with the best image quality and highest brightness (3000 nits max).

One of the joys of 8K is that you can use huge displays yet still avoid that ‘dotty’ look or ‘pixelation’ where you can see the individual dots that make up the image. The author once was late into an early digital cinema demonstration and ended up in the front row. At that time, digital cinema projectors were just 1280 x 1024 resolution – probably lower resolution than your smartphone – and the dots were very obvious. It was not a great experience!

8K can enable displays right up to 100″ or more to look really, really good. However, although 55″ and 65″ sets are incredibly cheap these days, prices start to rise, and options tend to reduce at 75″ and above.  We thought we’d look at what is happening in the market for 100″ class sets from 90″ to 110″ diagonal that could offer 8K.

The easiest way to get such a big display is to use a projector, but there are no native 8K consumer projectors on the market. However, JVC does offer a native LCOS-based 8K projector for a customer in the simulation market. Projectors use tiny imaging devices based on DLP, LCOS, or LCDs. These have challenges in getting down to the small pixel sizes needed for 8K, at least with the optical efficiency required to give the brightness that you would want to see. One solution to this challenge is using 4K or UltraHD imagers and shifting them rapidly to create more dots within a single frame. That’s the same technique used to create a lot of 4K projectors using FullHD imagers.

JVC also offers a pixel-shifting projector that touts 8K resolution. It uses a UHD-resolution set of images and shifts the image four times very rapidly to resent an 8K image on the screen (DLA-NZ9 / RS4100 & DLA-N8 / RS3100). The DLA-NZ7 / RS2100 projectors use two shifts to present a near-8K image. Digital Projection offers a 3-chip DLP projector with pixel shifting to offer 8K as well, primarily for commercial customers.

OLEDs are significantly more challenging to make than LCDs because the backplanes that control each pixel are considerably more complicated than those used by LCDs. That’s because of the way that OLEDs work, and you also have to use better quality silicon than LCDs – all the energy for the display has to go through the transistors. 8K is a challenge for OLED because there are, believe it or not, at least 300 million transistors on the back of an 8K OLED panel! That makes them very tricky to make. Furthermore, for 8K, you have to send the current to the pixels from the edge of the display twice as fast, so each line on the display is only addressed for half the time. That means that you need twice as much current for the same brightness, which again makes things very difficult.

Currently, the only OLED panels with 8K are available from LG Display. Samsung is still developing its 4K QD OLED panels and has not yet fully stabilized its production, so it is sticking to 4K for now. It may stick there for a while as it has limited capacity for the new technology in its new factory in Korea.

LG Display has only been making 8K panels in the 77″ and 88″ sizes up to now, so OLED is also out of the picture unless you extend the definition down a little. Still, those set costs from $13,000 to $30,000, so they are not exactly mainstream sets. There is a new 2022 UltraHD/4K 97″ set, a G2 model from LG Electronics that is expected to be available this year at $25,000. We have also seenrumors about a new 97″ 8K OLED TV panel from LG, but at the moment, there has been no confirmation.

LCD makers have been making 100″ class panels for quite a long time, partly to prove that they can (there was a ‘mine’s bigger than yours’ competition between Sharp and Samsung for some years!). LG Philips (the forerunner of LG Displays) reported making a 100″ panel in 2006.

The pixel size for an 8K is the same as a 50″ 4K panel or a 25″ FullHD monitor, so it’s not difficult at the pixel level for LCDs, although the faster drive time does present some challenges.

For OLEDs or LCDs, the key to getting an excellent and uniform image is to deliver the proper voltage for each pixel at the right time directly over the pixel through transparent or very, very fine metallic electrodes from the top edge of the display. It’s challenging to achieve that over a (relatively) long electrode from the top to the bottom of the display. Early 100″ class LCDs used drivers at both the top and the bottom to get around this, but that adds a lot of cost and complication. Still, makers have worked out how to do it now, and products are available.

However, they are not cheap. The main reason for this is the challenge of getting good yields for these panels. The same area of LCD glass with transistors can make 16 25″ monitor panels or 64 12.5” notebook panels. When you have a significant defect in the manufacturing process caused by a speck of dust or an impurity in some materials, if you are making notebook panels, you can throw away the defective one and sell the other 63. However, if you are making 100″ panels, you have to throw away the whole thing. That makes it tricky to get good production yields, so the cost goes up.

One way to get around this yield issue is to make modular displays and combine them, but nobody has successfully done that with LCDs, although several firms have tried. However, dvLED or direct view LED (to distinguish from LCDs with LED backlights) displays are made that way using either PCB modules or, in the future, using glass substrates, not very different from those used to make smartphone LCDs and about the same size. However, there are two challenges with this approach.

The first challenge is cost. Unfortunately, the cost of LED displays scales with the number of LEDs rather than the area. So an 8K 100″ microLED would cost up to four times as much as a 4K set – almost regardless of size. Now, given that the price of a current Samsung 110″ ‘The Wall’ 4K set is around $156,000, an 8K set could cost over half a million dollars!

Although microLED can be modular (so you can have a Sony MicroLED TV up to a 16K set with 63′ of diagonal or a more modest 8K at just 440″ diagonal (32′ x 18′), at the moment, Samsung’s LEDs between 89″ to 110″ are ‘monolithic’ and assembled before delivery.

A few years ago, Panasonic made and sold 100″ PDPs and even demonstrated a 150″ PDP set. They used much thicker glass than LCDs, so they were cumbersome, and the logistics of shipment from the factory in Japan added a massive cost to the 100″ sets. The 150″ was just a demonstrator, and shipping it between trade shows around the world cost hundreds of thousands of dollars!

Of course, LG has a very expensive ($100,000 for a 65″!!) rollable OLED TV that could be used to deliver a 100″ set. Still, all the issues of yield and difficulty of manufacture get worse with this technology, so a rollable 8K 100″ is likely to be some years away (although, in the long term, we wouldn’t bet against it appearing!)

For all these reasons, at the moment, LCD is the only game in town for native 8K displays, and buyers can exploit the remarkable developments in quantum dot color and backlight processing to get truly compelling displays.

Compared to the number of pixels of 4K panel, 8K panel is 4 times the number of pixels, 10K panel is 5.4 times the number of pixels, so the corresponding number of driver chips are to be correspondingly multiplied. And the more the number of chips, the higher the cost, the control difficulty is also correspondingly increased.

According to the latest IHSLargeAreaDisplayMarketTracker large size shipment report, in July and August 2016, 4K LCD TV panel shipments all reached a single month of about 6 million pieces, accounting for 26% and 24% of LCD TV panel shipments in that month, respectively. And with the LCD TV market large size and 4K TV penetration of each other, the future of this proportion will be further enhanced.

For example, according to the latest IHS large size flat panel display product shipment forecast, in the fourth quarter of this year, this proportion is expected to exceed 30%, and by the second quarter of next year, is expected to further reach 35%. Therefore, following HD, FHD and other resolutions, 4K resolution has become a mainstream in the LCD TV panel market, is already an indisputable fact.

And with the evolution of the market, the flat panel display industry for higher specifications and higher resolution products in the pursuit of the footsteps of far from stop. In the recent various industry exhibitions such as the IFA exhibition in Germany, various manufacturers of 4K products, but more and more 8K products began to appear in various booths, began to enter everyone’s vision, and even some manufacturers such as the mainland panel factory exhibited 110-inch 10K panel products.

According to IHSLargeAreaDisplayProductRoadmapTracker shows that the current panel manufacturers in production or research and development of 8K panel products up to more than 40 models, size range from 65 inches to 110 inches, showing a very optimistic attitude towards the prospects of 8K panel products.

Compared to 4K, with a resolution of 3840×2160, the 8K panel has four times the number of pixels of the 4K panel, with a resolution of 7680×4320 and an image aspect ratio of 16:9, which is also the most mainstream aspect ratio in the current TV market.

The 10K panel exhibited by BOE has a resolution of 10240×4320 and an aspect ratio of 21:9, which is the same as the aspect ratio of the video signal of movie theaters, aiming to bring consumers a more vivid and realistic home theater experience.

Compared to 4K panel, because 8K TV panel pixel density (PPI) is higher, is the same size 4K panel 2 times, so in the production, the manufacturing process, fine processing ability requirements are more demanding, 10K panel is required to go further.

Therefore, and 4K panel just started to enter the market, the panel manufacturers are facing slow yield improvement and even occasionally process problems resulting in poor yields, 8K/10K panel production is also particularly difficult.

The 8K panel requires the source drive and door drive electrode must be copper, so the process is more difficult than the 4K panel general aluminum electrode. Currently only LGD in this area of technology is more mature, while Samsung is in 2016 began a comprehensive technical improvement, the copper electrode process into the whole line, other panel manufacturers are in the 8K panel copper electrode process are more or less encountered a small problem.

In addition, due to the 8K panel pixel amount, pixel density is high, so if you choose a smaller panel size, by too high pixel density will bring additional process difficulties. Therefore we can see that the current 8K panel minimum size that is 65 inches, pixel density of 136PPI; and the vast majority of 8K panel products are selected 75 inches, 85 inches or even like 98 inches / 110 inches and other large size panel.

And oversized panel manufacturing process itself is a complex process, the manufacturing capacity has high technical requirements. And large size, high pixel density, how to control the display image quality, such as brightness, contrast, consistency, etc., are on the production enterprises is a considerable challenge.

But therefore 8K/10K is the “ultimate technology” or “resolution peak” of the panel, seems a bit premature. Although the current flat panel display industry has been huge, but the pace of technological progress has never stopped, especially with domestic enterprises BOE as the representative of the panel manufacturers, has been in the pursuit of higher resolution products tirelessly. With the future domestic BOE and Huaxing photoelectric 10.5 generation / 11 generation production line mass production, in the larger size LCD TV panel production capacity, the pursuit of higher resolution products on the basis of the possibility is still very high.

However, although panel manufacturers and TV brand manufacturers are very active in 8K products, 8K products really enter the market mainstream still need a very long-term industrial development and accumulation. For example, although 4K products have become the mainstream of the market, the majority of TV broadcasting network systems cannot support the broadcasting of 4K content.

As for the production and trial broadcast of 8K content, only NHK in Japan has cooperated with BOE to make some active attempts in the Japanese market since 2015, and some trial recordings and broadcasts were made for the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio.

Therefore, although we are still very optimistic about the prospects of 8K products, we expect that it will take at least 2~3 years before 8K products really start to take off in the market. In the current situation, 8K products are costly and priced at a premium, so we must wait for the technology to mature further and the products to be priced more affordably before they can take a place in the market.

Based on this and the fact that the sales volume of 8K products in 2016 was less than a thousand units, we expect that in 2018, 8K TV sales will reach more than 300,000 units and break through one million units in 2019, and thereafter enter a rapid growth channel.

According to TrendForce, Samsung Display"s exit from the LCD market will cause a "major reshuffle". While 2019 was marked by an oversupply of display panels resulting in a significant drop in panel prices, this year is marked by the lowered demand in most end products due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Samsung Display"s plans to exit the LCD market by the end of the year brings further uncertainty. Currently, the company...

Digitimes cites a survey from Sigmaintell Consulting, according to which, half a million 8K TV panels will be shipped in 2020. The wider adoption of 8K panels is limited mainly by their prices because they are twice as high as those of 4K panels. If the price gap narrows down to 1.3 times, then a wider penetration will be expected. Currently, Samsung, AUO, Sharp and BOE have announced 8K panels, and China Star...

AU Optronics this week has announced plans to start shipments of 8K panels for large UHDTVs in the first half of 2018. The panels will enable TV manufacturers to produce “Super UHD” 8K TVs to compete against LG and Samsung later this year.

The lineup of panels featuring a 7680×4320 resolution will be aimed at ultra-high-end TVs and sizes will range from 65 to 85 inches, said Liao Wei-Lun, president of AUO’s video products business group, at a press conference. The high-ranking executive did not disclose other specifications of the panels, such as luminance and contrast ratio, but given their positioning, it is logical to expect their characteristics to be comparable to 8K UHDTVs to be offered by LG and Samsung.

Multiple TV makers demonstrated various 8K UHDTVs at various trade shows in the recent years, but so far no one has started to sell them. Given the lack of content, it is hard to expect high demand for 8K televisions in the next couple of years, aside from the halo factor - nonetheless, AUO expects 8K panels to account for 10% of its "65-inch and above" panel shipments in 2020. The presumably high-cost of the panels would indicate that in terms of unit shipments this might still be a low-ish number. However, as with 4K displays, someone has to release 8K TVs to stimulate content providers to offer appropriate material. At this year’s CES, Samsung demonstrated its Q9S, its first commercial 8K TV-set, but it did not announce its pricing or availability timeframe. LG and Sony also demonstrated their 8K TVs at CES 2018, but nothing is clear about their plans regarding these products.

Since AUO intends to start mass production of the 8K panels for UHDTVs in the coming months, it is highly likely that it has customers willing to use them for their products already. Because we are talking about volume manufacturing, it is likely that AUO’s partners have already developed their UHDTVs based on the early development panels and we are going to see AUO-based 8K UHDTVs later this year.

As for 8K displays for PCs, Dell is currently the only company to offer an 8K monitor (this one is based on a panel from LG, so the latter might introduce its own 8K display at some point). Philips last year promised to start shipments 328P8K monitor in 2018, so expect the product to hit the market in the coming months too.

ELEGOO, a company specializing in the research, development and production of 3D printers, has launched the Saturn 2 8K MSLA Printer, an 8K printer in its product portfolio, at US$500. It also unveiled a new series of 8K resins, its latest Mercury XS Bundle Washing and Curing machine, and the Neptune 3 FDM printer. The latest product lineup is available for purchase.

ELEGOO"s Saturn 2 8K is equipped with a 8K 10-in. mono LCD screen, which the company has jointly developed with Innolux, a subsidiary of the Foxconn Technology Group, a professional TFT-LCD panel manufacturer and a supplier of Apple.The Saturn 2 8K"s screen delivers more clarity and precision for 3D printing. Saturn 2 8K can reproduce the details needed for realistic 3D models.

Recognizing the delicate nature of an 8K screen, ELEGOO"s Saturn 2 8K has a replaceable 9H tempered film to guard against wear and tear. 9H tempered glass resists scratches from 9H pencils, the hardest standard grade of lead. As a result, the Saturn 2 8K is highly durable and has an extended screen life compared to other devices on the market.

Equipped with combination optical design of FCLS (Fresnel Collimating Light Source), a technology independently developed by the ELEGOO R&D team, the Saturn 2 8K overcomes the large-angle problem of typical COB light sources and the light spot problem of matrix light sources by adopting the Fresnel lens, an optical lens design technique that limits the light angle under 5 degrees. This results in more realistic printed models.

Working with ELEGOO"s new 8K standard and water washable resins, ELEGOO also introduced the new thermochromic resin, which changes from gray to purple at 50 degrees Celsius and returns to its original color when cooled.

ELEGOO also released new iterations of products in its portfolio. A step up from the popular Neptune 2, the Neptune 3 printer is priced at $209.99, with features of RSG (Resistance Strain Gauge) Auto Leveling System, Filament Runout/Clog Detector and taking less than 10 minutes to install. In tandem, ELEGOO has launched its new Mars 3 Pro LCD Printer and Mercury XS Bundle Clean and Cure machine, priced at $300 and $180 respectively.
