The Anycubic KOBRA MAX REVIEW

แชร์
ฝัง
  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 1 เม.ย. 2022
  • The @ANYCUBIC3D Kobra Max is a new-yet-familiar offering from Anycubic. Does it pack a punch at a larger scale? Are the prints awesome? Is this something you want?
    You'll have to watch and find out :)
    NOTE April 7, 2022: Just heard from Anycubic, there is now a coupon on Amazon, that takes the Kobra MAX to $599
    OLD NOTE: I was told in an email from Anycubic that the KOBRA MAX would be $599 on Amazon and $539 on their official website. I just checked, and it's $739 on Amazon and $569 on their website. I've sent an email to Anycubic, and I'm waiting on a reply. I hope this is just a mistake and not intentional deception.

    I have a anycubic Chiron with the same bed and you have to let the bed cool. Even under the print. People will touch the bed and think it's cool but under the print not so much. I come back a couple hours after the print finishes and even large prints will pop off with little effort.
    You can also reduce your bottom layer flow rate a bit. Will help if your prints are sticking to much on any printer.

    Very interesting setup for the Y. I dont mind how they did that oddly, figured I would. Distributing the load over 2 rails with lots of wheels is nice, but may lead to issues with those bearings with HEAVY prints. Any luck oiling the bearings? It sounded to me that it might have been in the extruder!

    Joel, I enjoyed your review as always. I've been using flexible build plates on all my machines for a couple of years now, and I'll never go back to using tape or glue or whatever. Really can't see why you would ever want to mess with any of those methods when the flex plates are so easy to install (if the machine doesn't come with one) and so convenient to use.

    @SwervingLemon 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Any time I get one of the beds with the silicon-carbide surface, I flip it over and print on the naked glass. While carborundum does a great job of holding onto models with a small footprint, the risk to my nozzle, combined with the weird behaviour on some filaments (black silk - might as well have been welded to the bed), makes it not worth it on anything but finicky prints in basic PLA.
    Another great video, Joel! Thanks for posting!

    Just a tip I've learned that I want to share to everyone watching. When removing tpu from glass, do it while the glass is still hot. It's a lot easier to peel off that way. Otherwise once it cools down it holds to glass like glue! I like to catch it right at the end of the print and peel it off. I've tried reheating the glass after it has cooled down and that didn't seem to help much either. Happy printing.

    I got the at squeak on a few of my printers as well, it was actually the cooling fan rubbing on the cowl of the print head, the blades where too loose on the fan and they wobbled enough to make that noise, also, in the case of my CR6 SE to rub a groove in the cowling housing. A fan swap fixed the issue, but it is a bummer that it happens form the factory like that.

  • @andy-in-indy
    @andy-in-indy 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    It is like an upgraded Chiron: all the new features and most of the upgrades. Things I did not see in the review: is there a filament run out sensor? Does the filament sensor detect stopped/jammed filament? Is the bed heating evenly? Does it resume properly after a power fail? Does the firmware allow notifications back to Octoprint when the filament runs out? Does the bed have amosfet so I can keep it powered after power loss?

    I have a anycubic chiron and it's an awesome machine for the most part I have used it a lot more than my ender 3. All the issues you're facing with the kobra I've had with the chiron which is disappointing given there is a few years between them you'd think they would have figured that out already. Blue masking tape has been my go to for my prints on the glass to help it release. I wish they released the nozzle bed levelling for aftermarket.

    I have had the Chiron for years and have been satisfied with it. I have had things stick to the bed too hard, but I always use washable water gluestick now, and things come off quickly. It is built cheaply, though, and I have had to replace many parts. Luckily any cubic always sent them to me for free based on warranty. I did add a direct drive to mine instead of Bowden now, I had issues with the filament extruder just chewing up filament before, and I use it with a palette as well. The majority of the time, everything prints well for me. I upgraded all the parts and printed high-temp with it. When it is time for an upgrade, I will go with the max. as far as price is concerned, I don't see too many other printers that are competitive with it based on size and capabilities.

    Have you considered G10/FR4 for the build surface? I switched from Creality's glass bed to the 1/16" G10/FR4 and it's amazing, the prints stick great during printing and slide right off when it cools and it's flexible so you can flex it to pop prints off as well and you don't need to heat bed with TPU.

  • @ge2719
    @ge2719 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    The problem with the tolerances not working when scaling... Thats another power of designing a model parametrically.
    If you want to scale it afterwards you can do it with changing one number. If you use the parameters correctly.
    Always start with a "scale" parameter, set to 1.
    Include that scale parameter with ever measurement that is an actual dimension. so like "body_height_a*scale"
    But dont include it in the tolerances.
    You should even use parameters for every tolerance so you can tweak those in the entire model afterwards with the change of one number.
    So say the tolerances need to be 0.1mm when you print with a 0.4mm nozel, but you switch to a 0.8 to print larger and it needs to be a larger tolerance, no problem. Change one number.

    Getting some insane bed adhesion with pla/+, i reckon maybe z offset? The auto bed leveling seems to do really good, it might just be a couple points of a millimeter too close. I’ve tried dropping the bed temp down to 50 which arguably was worse because the owl snapped in half and i sent her perch flying through the stratosphere with her feet attached (after hours of cooling). Although, that was with pla+, i don’t see how that would be much of a difference but worthy of including i guess. Any other ideas?
    The printer is sick though, i giggled like a child when i tried the auto filament loading and unloading. Its the little things 😅 i really can’t give much of a review with only 2 owls printed (part of one currently in orbit), but just going off quality and ease of use out of the box, its been a dream. If z offset is my only real concern with bed leveling, I’ll take that over a piece of paper and knobs any day because i SUCKED at bed leveling manually. My one gripe was the sd card that came with it, i thought like in the video maybe i had it in the wrong spot or something. Negative, the sd card wouldn’t read in the printer at all, but reads on the computer? I ended up grabbing the one from my ender 3 and it loaded right up. I tried different formats and reformatting, to no avail, the sd that came with it just didn’t read in the printer. The printer is also not inherently recognized in cura (that I’ve been able to find at least), the instructions come with a guide to set it up, but from a new persons perspective i can understand it’s not ideal.

    Hey Joel... I wondering, will you be able to get hold of and build and test out the biggest hobby level printer I've ever seen the new Tronxy X5SA-600.
    It has the new auto leveling black sensor for all bed types and a big ..big print area.
    Of 600 mm x 600 mm x 600 mm..
    So 2 feet square print area to try out. I hope you get it so we all can see this monster cube design frame printer?
    Thanks 😄

    Is there not an opton to adjust the z axis offset. Its auto oeveling, and so if its adhering too much it might just need backing off 0.01mm or so to make it easier to remove.

    Awsome video!
    My Ender 3 recently failed and I'm looking for a new printer.
    Since I'm now certain I want to really get into the hobby, I'm willing to spend more money.
    Currently, I'm not sure wether to get the Kobra or Kobra Max.
    I've indeed wished for a bigger printing volume on my Ender 3, since I sometines print stuff like seld designed rovers and cars I then automate.
    I'm still not excatly sure, wether it's worth the bunch of extra money (I'm still in school so money is a little tight), especially without a flexible build plate.
    What would you advise?

    It sounds like anycubic needs to put a thicker (relatively flat) aluminum bed plate on it and a removable build plate with it. I think that would be nice since the thin aluminum bed plates warp alot

    I'm looking to get into 3d printing for the first time, so I don't know anything about this subject.
    But I'm a good cook and often use parchment paper to cook things on. (Life hack - No washing dishes). That's rated to about 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Would it be possible to use a sheet of parchment paper to save your base?

  • @Range-Report
    @Range-Report ปีที่แล้ว

    Great video. I just ordered the Kobra Max because I was dissatisfied with the Shark V3 that I was using. My issue was bed adhesion. Nothing I tried would allow things to stay locked in position. I was losing 20 prints for every one that was marginally successful. Now, I'm afraid that I will have the opposite problem with adhesion. What do you recommend for an interface that will allow the prints to release easier...other than resorting to a flexible plate....not that I would even know where to get one. Any input would be stellar.

    I'm inclined to get one of these. In your expert opinion what is the best 3d printer i can get right now for under $1000.
    I'm looking for something "functional" , i don't want 3d printing as a hobby, i don't want to print thing that i can get at a 99 cent store, I'm looking for real functionality without having to spend hours tinkering with the printer, fixing and upgrading. I just want the brunt of my work to be kept in the design and development of the products that i need and not to focus on the printer itself. (Also ideally I would like to be able to print in large format but its not a deal breaker. some of the items i need to design are about 17" long)

    I think Sean is having a little too much fun with the editing, but I LUV IT! At least you can't singe your hair with a vacuum. Or can you?
    I had the exact same bed issue that you had, where the surface pealed off of my Ender 5 Plus, along with some of the glass. ABS stuck a little too well to it. It seems like the surface micro-fractures over time, to a point where they eventually become large enough cause the surface to fail. Once the first piece chipped off, I started seeing gouges across the entire surface.

    Flexible build plates should really be standard by now. The print bed of the Vyper is perfect but maybe it is not manifactured in larger sizes? For my Anycubic Mega X i bought a magnetic, removable, flexible bed and it is way simpler now to get the prints off the plate (but the removable layer is starting to fall apart after about 500 prints so be careful with it)

  • @daveolson9424
    @daveolson9424 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Joel…. I use bumble and bumble oil free finishing spray on my build surfaces. I first spray the area lightly, then bake to 90 untill it’s done drying. Abs and other prints so good with this. It’s the only thing I can find that will really hold down well but release when cool. And I’ve tried a lot of sprays. I dare you to test. Say good bye to glue sticks..
