About Anycubic Kobra 3D-printer

Anycubic Kobra is in kompakte 3D-printer ynspirearre troch it modulêre ûntwerp fan fjoerwapens en fjochtsjets. De behuvzing is swart, mei donkerblauwe en reade details. In automatyske nivelearringsfunksje pleatst it platfoarm yn in horizontale posysje sûnder hânmjittige ynstelling, wat de betsjinning ferienfâldiget. It printplatfoarm kombinearret in PEI-coating, fearstiel en in sêfte magnetyske laach, sadat de plaat direkt fêstsit as er delset wurdt, en printe modellen wurde derôf helle troch de plaat te bûgjen. In 32-bits stille memmeboerd en in ynstelbere riemspanner ferminderje it lûdsnivo tidens it printsjen.
