All about the product

ANYCUBIC Kobra S1 ACE 2 Pro Combo 3D Printer

ANYCUBIC Kobra S1 ACE 2 Pro Combo – an advanced FDM 3D printer with a closed-type CoreXY structure, 250 × 250 × 250 mm print area, and ACE 2 Pro multi-color printing system. The device achieves a printing speed of up to 600 mm/s and a maximum acceleration of 20,000 mm/s². With a nozzle that heats up to 320°C and a working platform that heats up to 120°C, it supports a wide variety of filament types: PLA, PETG, ABS, ASA, and TPU. The ACE 2 Pro module ensures 4-color printing, and the system can be expanded to 16 colors. Additionally, it acts as an active filament dryer, maintaining a temperature of up to 65°C. LeviQ 3.0 automatic leveling, intelligent printing monitoring, remote control via an app, and quiet operation make the device ideal for both home workshops and professional design work.

Multi-color Printing with the ACE 2 Pro Module

The included ACE 2 Pro module enables automatic four-color printing without the need for manual filament changes. This solution significantly simplifies the creation of more complex projects, decorative models, figurines, or prototypes requiring different material colors. The system can be expanded to 16 colors using additional ACE 2 Pro modules. However, it is important to note that first and second generation multi-color systems cannot be used simultaneously, so it is impossible to combine older Anycubic solutions with the new multi-color printing platform.

Stable CoreXY Structure and High Print Quality

The closed-type CoreXY structure is designed to ensure high precision even at very high printing speeds. The sturdy frame reduces vibrations, resulting in more accurate detail reproduction and smoother model surfaces. The enclosed printing chamber helps maintain stable temperature conditions when working with more demanding materials like ABS or ASA. This results in less deformation of models and makes the printing process more predictable.

Performance Designed for Rapid Prototyping Needs

The ANYCUBIC Kobra S1 is equipped with a powerful drive mechanism allowing printing speeds of up to 600 mm/s and achieving accelerations of up to 20,000 mm/s². These parameters significantly shorten project implementation time without sacrificing print quality. The recommended working speed of 300 mm/s ensures an optimal balance of speed and accuracy. This is especially important for users who regularly produce prototypes, functional models, or short production runs.

Compatibility with Popular Filaments

The printer is compatible with many materials used in FDM technology, including PLA, PETG, ABS, ASA, and TPU. This allows for adapting the filament to specific task requirements – from decorative models to technical parts intended for use in challenging conditions. With a nozzle heating up to 320°C and a working platform heating up to 120°C, proper working conditions are ensured for a wide range of materials. However, please note that due to its flexibility, TPU filament must be fed directly into the printer and is not compatible with the ACE 2 Pro module during automatic multi-color printing.

Filament Drying and Moisture Control

The ACE 2 Pro module also functions as a smart filament dryer. The system allows for drying material at temperatures up to 65°C even during printing, helping to reduce issues caused by moisture within the material. Built-in temperature and humidity sensors continuously monitor conditions inside the chamber. Additionally, the active moisture removal system helps maintain proper filament storage conditions, resulting in more consistent printing results.

Smart Printing Assist Features

The Kobra S1 ACE 2 Pro Combo is equipped with LeviQ 3.0 automatic leveling, eliminating the need for manual calibration of the working table. The resonance compensation system uses a built-in accelerometer to minimize vibrations that affect model surface quality. The material flow correction feature allows for more accurate extrusion control, reducing excess material in corners and improving the dimensional accuracy of prints. These solutions help achieve better results with less manual adjustments.

Monitoring and operational safety

The printer offers various features that enhance safety and control over the printing process. The AI Monitoring system can detect anomalies, such as the formation of so-called "spaghetti" or uncontrolled material buildup during printing. The device also supports foreign object detection in the working area, drive belt tension monitoring, and automatic print resumption after a power outage. This allows the user to react more quickly to potential issues and reduce the risk of failed prints.

User convenience and remote control

The manufacturer has also considered daily usage convenience. The intuitive 4.3-inch touchscreen simplifies control, while the Anycubic app allows remote printing initiation, monitoring of progress, and reviewing time interval records of the model creation process. The Anycubic Slicer Next software, built on the Orca Slicer platform, ensures convenient project preparation and the use of modern model slicing algorithms. Thanks to Wi-Fi connectivity, the printer can also be controlled via a local network.

Quiet operation and durable components

Despite its high performance, the device maintains a low noise level. In silent mode, approximately 44 dB noise is generated, while in standard mode – approximately 46 dB. Using the active filament drying function in the ACE 2 Pro module, the noise level can increase to approximately 55 dB due to the operation of additional components responsible for material drying. The use of brushless motors with a lifespan exceeding 5,000 hours ensures long-lasting and stable device operation.

Dimensions and weight

Before purchasing, it's worth assessing the space needed for comfortable setup. The printer itself measures 400 × 410 × 490 mm and weighs approximately 18 kg. The dimensions of the ACE 2 Pro module are 368 × 291.5 × 236.5 mm, with a weight of approximately 3.7 kg. With a ready-to-use kit, approximately 420 × 530 × 710 mm of workspace is required, which should be considered when planning your workspace.
