500 hours in and the extruder is done. Best part is watrenty on part is 3 months. Is 6 months old. Should of bought a p2s.......
When I got my first printer I kept seeing the rave about these nozzles, and seemingly it was a fair thing to rave about! I never upgraded to one initially as I knew I’d be moving to CoreXY at some point, so once I got my S1 I reached out to DiamondBack (a few months ago) and they had not yet developed the nozzle, but I just got this email letting me know they will very soon be available. FYI for anybody wanting an upgrade!
Side note, that’s some brilliant customer service from DiamondBack to reach back out to me to let me know they’re available.
I updated my magnetic printhead cover for the Anycubic Kobra S1 and added a Pogo-Pin connection for the model cooling fan.
The original idea is still the same: the stock front cover is held in place by plastic clips, and while that works fine at first, it becomes annoying if you remove the cover regularly for nozzle changes or general maintenance. Those clips will eventually wear out or snap. That already happened to me twice, so I wanted a more practical solution.
The rear cover is still mounted with screws like the stock part, while the front cover is attached magnetically. This makes it much easier to remove and reinstall the front cover without constantly stressing the original clip system.
With this update, the model cooling fan is now connected through Pogo-Pins. That means the front cover can be removed without unplugging the fan cable every time. The other connections stay as they are on the original printer and still use the stock plugs.
If you already printed my previous magnetic cover, you do not need to print everything again. The back cover can still be used. You only need the updated parts for the Pogo-Pin version.
It still improves access to the nozzle, makes maintenance easier, and, at least in my opinion, looks a lot better too. And yes, that was definitely still part of the motivation.
So... I bought funssor 5mm and 8mm bed/carriage combo.
And even after many tried my bed is not flat. It's warped, any ideas as to why? I mean is not horrible, but my vyper normal printer is flatter than this, I feel a bit disappointed.
Amazon purchase - first hotend was perfect for months, then the next 2 are clogging 2 different printers. I've set the printer to the right settings. I'm using PLA.
I've spent hours to no avail. Anyone using steel and experiencing the same thing. All are .4mm
So I am new to 3d printing and stuff and was wondering if it is worth keeping the poop and supports and failed prints from my kobra s1?
if so can I send it to a recycling centre in Australia (is it even a thing)
your help and comments are greatly appreciated!
So, today I had two weird issues.
I've sent to print some 3.5hs print, the first time at around 1.5hs the printer said the print was complete and successful however it only printed 40%.
So I re-sliced the object and sent it to print again. Now it went for 2.5 hs before doing the same.
Basically at random point during the print it just assumes it's finished and homes back the nozzle and that's it.
It's not air printing, the print literally says it finished earlier than what it should so for some reason I can't understand it believes it's done earlier.
Any suggestions?
So, I bought an AC KS1 combo at the end of last summer, and I just walked it to the garage. In total it has about 1.7k hours on it. Well taken care of, Funssor bed with the carriage upgrade. Mods as one would expect - tiltable AMS, magnetic head casing, clear PTFE tubing, etc. Ceramic hot end (with probably 5-6 more still in the bag). A few, including unused plates, I just don't have it in my DNA or want to anymore to spend the money and time tinkering to get it work, for another couple hundred hours.
I notice this model is now going for about $299 new now? (~half the price I paid and double the recent Funssor upgrade). I live in LA.
Is this something that I should even try to sell, donate to Goodwill, or just put it in the bin for Thursday's trash day?
I was cleaning my printers extruder and all of the sudden the printer needed to shut down then it gave me a heatbed error 10123. Red light is on leads read 3.2 Volts and there’s a buzz from the power supply like a mosquito (Coil whine)
This is my first layer.
I changed the hotend to a hardend steel Ceramic kit and did a full calibration.
any tips on replacing the ENTIRE tool head with a completely different setup, even if I have to rewire and install new mainboard, printer is over a year old now, no longer under any warranty, Anycubic is ignoring my messages for help
this printer HAD printed beautifully (when it worked) but now it won't even feed in a single line of filament fed into it, ACE just grinds trying to force filament into it jamming up the buffer and hub unit something fierce
The frame is perfectly good. I'll make it into a base core XY machine if I have to if there's no easy way to swap out the tool head
First time seeing this kind of failure.
Hot end got separated from heat shield.
And I just thought why overhangs on my last print became so bad.
First one from the new seller, previously bought this ceramic ones from a different one with black silicon shield.
Looks like this a reason to come back to previous seller)
Has anyone encountered (and SOLVED !) this issue !!
I get repetitive hotend clogging which seems to be related to a piece of filament stuck in the radiator above the hotend and below the cutter !
When I clean it and restart a print the machine starts printing but does not release filament on the printing plate. The hotend runs empty !!!
I'm so fed up with the damned machine !
Hello, everyone...
So I've noticed my KS1 has been taking a lot longer than I had anticipated. For overnight prints, I usually have an alarm set so I can take off what is printed and add the next intended piece.
Well, since last Thursday, it has been way off. Multicolor or single color prints are taking almost double the estimated time.
I do not have Quiet mode on. I usually use Standard, but since this came up, I've been using "Sport", which, to be quite honest, hasn't made much of a difference.
I was hoping someone who had run into a similar issue could help...
Appreciated!
Anyone know of anywhere I can get a replacement extension wire for the model fan? I’ve had it replaced in the past with anycubic directly but the 3 week turn around time isnt ideal
Hi everyone, I’m having ongoing issues with my Anycubic Kobra S1 3D printer and I’m hoping someone can help.
Since I got this printer, I’ve always had a lot of problems with filament. The initial issue was that one of my filaments was old and had snapped inside the PTFE tubes. I identified the problem, removed all the broken pieces, and replaced the filament by buying four new PLA-High Speed spools directly from Anycubic. After that, the issue was fully resolved.
It worked fine for about a week. I even managed to complete a 12-hour multicolor print, with a few interruptions due to filament tangling, but overall it was successful.
A few days later, I tried to start another print, but the printer started having filament problems again. This time it broke inside the extruder. So I fully disassembled the extruder following a YouTube tutorial, removed the stuck filament, reassembled everything, and tested it again.
Now the printer no longer gives an error about stuck filament, but when I press “extrude,” the filament feeds correctly up to the extruder. However, as soon as it actually starts entering the extruder, the issue shown in the attached video happens (sound on).
Needless to say, printing is currently impossible.
I’ve already tried disassembling and checking everything multiple times, but it has been doing the same thing for weeks now.
Does anyone know what might be causing this or how to fix it? Thanks a lot.
