Assembled or a Build-Your-Own Kit
This high-performance, super-accurate laser SLA 3D printer comes with the option of being pre-assembled, or as a kit that you can build yourself.
With the Build-It-Yourself Kit, you gain a huge amount of savings for a few hours of work. The Moai comes with instructions, and we have a companion video here that will help you get your Peopoly Moai up and running in no time. By building the 3D printer yourself, you will gain valuable insight into how laser SLA 3D printing works and a greater understanding of the Moai itself.
You also have the option of purchasing the Peopoly Moai fully assembled and tested by the Pros at MatterHackers. We build and test all the units before shipping them out, making absolutely sure that they are operational and up to our professional standards before shipping it to you.
If you are looking for a fully-assembled Peopoly Moai tested by the Pros at MatterHackers, you can find it here.
So whether you want a ready-to-go, fully-tested unit - still far below the price of most other laser SLA 3D printers on the market - or a kit you can build yourself and save even more money, MatterHackers has you covered.
Speed and Precision
The Moai is powered by an ST 32-bit ARM processor, capable of interpreting Gcode and running the machine incredibly fast, allowing for high precision movements without having to increase print time. While most FDM 3D printers come with a 0.40mm nozzle, the laser spot size of the Moai is only 70 microns, or 0.07mm in diameter. This makes the 'filament path' a much higher resolution than any FDM 3D printer can accomplish. But since the toolpath is a laser curing resin and not a nozzle extruding filament the machine can print very fast and maintain low print times even at this high level of precision. Combined with the 10-micron layer height, this printer offers the most bang for your buck in the laser SLA world today.
Maximum Compatibility for Seamless Integration
Making the jump from FDM to SLA 3D printing is a big change, luckily the Moai makes it easy by using Gcode - the same file type used by FDM machines. Instead of moving the nozzle around the build area, it's just the laser that travels and cures the resin to create your part. Slice your part in MatterControl, export the Gcode to an SD card and the Moai will do the rest! This seamless upgradeability makes the Moai the perfect 3D printer to start using resin-based SLA machines.

Questions
How well would this work for paintable Miniatures for D&D or models for Wargamming such as warhammer?
Do you have these in stock or they're drop shipped from China? What's the shipping speed?
What is the tank resin capacity?
Does SLA need support structures for overhangs and such
Any details about why this particular kit is on clearance ?
Any details about why this particular kit is on clearance ?
Vat is sliding and tipping, how do can I fix this?
With the resin liquid, how toxic is this to use ? If unused resin is left in the tray, can it be returned to the bottle, or this that not recommended. If I want a different color resin from one print to the next, should I let the remaining resin cure and harden? How strong are these prints in comparison with a PLA print? Would they be functional, say as a small plant holder for a cactus as an example. Are gloves needed to use the resin? Interesting technology but is it worth all the trouble? Much more waste, and danger that a regular PLA filament printer. Resin colors are much more limited than PLA.
I want a resin printer but the lcd screens seem to burn out kinda quick how long does the laser module last on average?
How do you calibrate the Moai? my prints are coming off not level like if a cake was sliding off a table.
I want to use a Matter and Form , model mfs1v1 scanner. What software and or anything will I need to get it work with your Moai printers
Will my new Moai work properly in a cold environment? I'm thinking of putting it up in a log cabin in the garden where the temperature could drop down to 41 degrees
I assume you can put together the package deal with the UV light, warmer, tray, base etc? I find it hard to believe that this is in stock but the kit wouldn"t be...
can you make something like a drone or a tattoo machine with this? Or maybe sport-rockets and engines? watch casings for digital watches?
Moai states that the printer comes with a free kg of resin, I only received the resin I paid for with my order. Does the Free resin ship separate? Can we choose the color?
All of the informational videos I have seen on the Peopoly Moai include a rotary encoder dial and a display to aid in printing and calibration. I don't see those features pictured in the photos of any of the Peopoly products. I am interested in purchasing the kit version (MP86LX2U). If it does not include the display how is the calibration procedure accomplished, and is it possible to upgrade to the model with the display?
What material is the build plate made of?
Print speed, How many mm per hour
Hi, can I print an articulated object (with many joints for many body parts) as one piece with Moai 3D printer. For instance, an articulated object like this one: https://www.seas.harvard.edu/sites/default/files/images/oldsite/8.jpg Can I print that object as one stl piece with Moai 3D printer and expect all joints can be moveable afterward? Or should I print each object part one by one and assemble them all later?
Hi, does the Formlabs resins works with this SLA 3D printer? If yes, how can that be done?
I have been considering this printer and trolling here for some time now. There have been changes to the original kit. Is it now shipping with the PDMS vat or the FEP vat? With the original build plate or the easy level build plate? Pleas let me know the options if there are any.
What slicer software solution would you suggest for mac OS users?
Hi, I am very impressed with your site and with this printer. BUT I am cracking my head to find a 3D printer that works with a 385 nm laser (not 405 nm as most do). I need to use some custom resins that do not absorb at 405. SO here is the question: since this printer comes disassembled, do you know if one can buy and mount a different laser for it? Thank you really!
When will you have the updated version with the FEP film based tank for sale?
hi you suggest to use MYUS for shipping.....Thank you But i have UPS account with my company So UPS would be ok for you ??? thank you Best regards
HI is it possible for you to ship in France ? zip 13006 And what would be the cost of shipping? Do you have a 220V model ? Best regards Thank you
Is there a difference in different color resin, (print time, finish quality, paintability, durability etc).
How does the speed of printing compare to an Anycubic Photon? Also, as far as working parts, ie gears (planning on making clock gears) how does it compare to Anycunic prints?
Why is the Peopoly Moai not available for sale on Amazon?
I noticed the bed and resin tank upgrades available here on the website. Have these upgrades been included in new kits?
In the video, the gentleman says this is meant to be an introduction to SLA printing. Does this mean it can't be used in a professional setting or how are other printers better? How quickly must the resin be used before it expires or looses significant quality? Hours? Days?
When will you have the Moai upgrades that currently show on the Peopoly site - specifically the Moai printer with the FEP vat and the modified build plate?
What is the max environmental temperature you can reasonably use this in? I want to set up in my garage so there is no odor in the house.
Hi @Doug!
We do not have specific data for this.
It may actually improve the print quality--the garage could effectively be a resin chamber heater! But it shouldn't have an effect on the hardware, if it cools at night.
