Kobra

Kobra is an Anycubic Kobra Go.

Bed slinger, bowden tubed (ie. non-direct drive) 3D printer. Main modification is the part cooling fan which has required modifying the toolhead slightly. It should not affect day to day usage and nozzle swapping.

Filament

Only use the provided filament. Note that the majority of the filament in the Hackspace is currently 2.85mm diameter and Kobra uses the more common standard of 1.75mm.

Kobra is best suited for the following materials:

  • PLA
  • PETG
  • TPU

Always use the correct slicing profile for the filament material you are using. Different filaments have different melting and burning points, so getting the wrong material type can end up with a scorched mess, or a failure to extrude with a strained extruder motor. ABS is not recommended because it is not enclosed. If the printer is enclosed in the future, then ABS/ASA printing will be a lot easier, otherwise you will have bed adhesion issues.

please contact the maintainers if you wish to use a filament that is not available.

Glue stick should not be required with the texture PEI bed.
