The Anycubic Kobra 3 Combo 3D Printer is a game-changer for multi-color printing enthusiasts. With the ability to print in up to 4 colors (and soon 8 with the Anycubic Color Engine Hub), this printer opens up a world of creative possibilities. The ANYCUBIC ACE PRO sealed storage system ensures filament stays dry, while features like Nozzle Clog Detection and Automatic Filament Refill make printing more efficient.
Users have praised the printer's high-speed capabilities, reaching up to 600mm/s, which is significantly faster than traditional FDM printers. The built-in Accelerometer G-Sensors help detect and compensate for vibrations, ensuring smooth and high-quality prints. However, some users have reported issues with firmware updates and slicer compatibility, which can be frustrating for both beginners and experienced users.
Setup is relatively straightforward, especially with the combo pack that includes the Ace Pro. The touch screen interface is intuitive, and the mobile app adds convenience, though it has limited features. Multi-color printing does come with its challenges, such as increased filament waste and longer print times due to color changes.
While the printer excels in many areas, it's not without its flaws. Some users have experienced frequent clogs and difficulties with non-Anycubic filaments. Additionally, the pre-set tree supports can be wasteful and hard to remove. Despite these issues, the Anycubic Kobra 3 Combo remains a solid choice for those looking to explore multi-color 3D printing, provided they are willing to invest time in troubleshooting and fine-tuning their setup.
