TOOLS & INSTRUMENTS

How it Starts to Work (The Workflow)

• 1. Preparing the Print (The Only Step Requiring a Computer): You start by loading a digital 3D model into Anycubic Slicer Next on your computer. In the software, you arrange the object on the massive digital print bed and assign your colors. The software processes the shape and generates a G-code file containing paths, speeds, and temperature instructions.
• 2. Sending the File to the Printer: You can choose how you want to hand off the G-code file to the Kobra 3 Max:
• Wi-Fi / Cloud: Send it straight from the computer software over your home Wi-Fi.
• Mobile App: Send it using the Anycubic App on your phone.
• USB Flash Drive: Save the file to a USB thumb drive and plug it directly into the front of the printer.
• 3. Loading the Spools: If you are utilizing multi-color printing, you place your material spools inside the Anycubic ACE Pro companion box. The box automatically drives the active filament line forward through the tubes to the extruder. (Bonus: The ACE Pro actively dries your filament at temperatures up to 55°C while printing to prevent moisture-related stringing or brittleness). 
• 4. Starting the Print: Once you press "Print" on the machine’s 4.3-inch color touchscreen, your computer is out of the equation. You can close your laptop or completely power down your PC.The Kobra 3 Max runs solo from this point forward, executing tasks such as:
• Heating up its 800W high-speed AC print bed.
• Running its LeviQ 3.0 Auto-Leveling system to map the giant build plate. 
• Managing automatic filament cuts, purging old colors, and feeding new lines smoothly without any human intervention.
