Looks like I’ll be spending money once again.

I’m having this issue with a large print, could be my tension of my belts, I’m not sure what’s the perfect tension ? How would I know if it’s tight to the Max ?

I have a K2 Max for about 7 months and have a Anycubic Vyper , and have worked thru several issues. I stream all the time if you need some advice . However I also had issues with this i tightened everything . the did a PID calibration then a full Calibration in menu. i also printed a calibration layer to fine adjust and it worked for this issue. I also replaced the plastic X pull gear with a metal one.

If you use a k2m for 10 days, you will got 11 issues, and so on

No unless you want to be disappointed. I own 4 of them and regret it. At first I loved it and it was pushing out prints like a champ. And then the layer shift issue appeared and it was the death of the Kobra Max 2 for me. Sad, when it did work it was my favourite printer

I have 4 of these machines all with the same issue. At the beginning it was good and then the layer shift issue appeared eventually affecting all my machines even the newer one out of the 4 that I own. I would not buy it again and it has been extremely frustrating and disappointing. Obviously this machine was rushed out to market without enough research and development because of all the hype with the fast printing Bambi labs printers. I still print on the original Kobra max with no major issues. The Kobra max 2 seems like a dud.

I have 4 of these Kobra max 2 machines all with same issue. I am not sure how to fix it. I own 2 older Anycubic Kobra max original versions which work fine. I don’t think I would buy any large format printers from Anycubic in the future if this can’t be fixed.

Did you ever get this issue fixed. I was able to come up with a permanent solution and fixed mine after 3 days of frustration. I’m just seeing what everyone else was doing. I can say it’s not the belt tension, gears, steppers or wheels for sure…well at least for what’s plagued these issues. Fortunately I was able to use laser lights and some UV ink to identify what my issue was and once I made a procedure for it, I have done 17 prints at all speeds and it never happened again.

After a couple of messages with Anycubic, they sent me a new Y axis motor and a new motherboard. My printer is at 17 hours of a 32 hours print, no more skipping, where I had random 10mm+ shifts on the Y axis

I found a solution for my one .. check the cooling fans .. in my case i removed them now and put a bigger and stronger one in both parts - the PSU and the mainboard fan .. now the problem is gone .. there was not much dust , but the cooling seems to be the problem in my case .. i tested afterwards too - after 20 seconds whenever i reduced the speed with my newer fans the magic layer shift started ..

This is currently sale, so glad I watched your review before purchasing.

Han Solo show????? You mean Obi-Wan

I leave for ONE Day and it's Kaiju and Ghost Busters. 🤣🤣

I have them idw turtles and idw shredder as well as tokka and razar definitely worth it

Let's go

watch the beat drop at 2:51

how did you get that figures

Creo que tienes 2 problemas. 1.- La temperatura de la cama de impresion no es correcta. 2.- Tienes que colocar y apretar muy bien el sensor de nivelación, luego en la pantalla de impresora debes ajustar el desplazamiento del eje Z y asignarle una altura para que la boquilla se acerque de manera correcta a la cama de impresión. buena suerte

Anycubic es muy responsable con su servicio, aun así esta impresora Kobra 2 Max ha dado muchos problemas a usuarios, si tienes paciencia lo solucionas y tendras una gran impresora, recomiendo configurar muy bien la impresion antes de generar g-code, (prefiero usar software prusa), buena suerte.

The legends figure arms has deeper bends you just weren't using both joints , you can get the glove to touch the bicep

when I had layer shift on mine which was huge the problem was the brackets at the top of the Z axis on both sides. They should be at 90 degrees to the gantry but they were slightly loose and so they turned slightly inward. That seemed to make the Z axis canted just slightly which was enough that the head would eventually hit the print because it wasn't climbing as much vertically as it was on the Z screws since they were canted and that was what was throwing it off. I made sure the brackets were aligned properly and tightened them down and it solved that problem completely for me

I suffered increasing Y axis shift until the Y axis completely died during a print. Drive IC bit it and motor was painfully hot. Checked vref and it was WAY too high. Got a replacement board and checked the vreg and it too was WAY too high. All vref were set to high. Reset all and layer shift was better but still there and worse at higher speeds. Began investigating acceleration and jerk and found the default of 2000mms was too high. Dropped to 900 and shifting was GONE. Set jerk to 10 and acceleration to 1000 and hard set in the eeprom and now have over 4kg through it without so much as a single layer shift. Can print at 150mms and get perfect prints every time. I HIGHLY advise lowering acceleration to 900 to test, especially on a max, since the larger bed means a much greater mass for the motor to move and stop.

I fought Y axis shift on my kobra 2 (marlin version) for months until the Y driver bit it. I found the vref was set stupid high. After the board was replaced Y motor was so hot it hurt to touch it and skipped steps aplenty. Set vref properly and skipped steps were less but still too much Y axis shift to accept. I tested with various speeds and found that every time I went over 40mms the Y axis would shift and anything over 80mms was a guaranteed failed print. This led me into acceleration and jerk. I dropped acceleration to 900mms and jerk to 10 and instantly all layer shifts stopped. I can print at 150mms with no problems and have almost 4kg through the printer since I made this change without a single layer shift. Seeing that the max has to move a significantly larger amount of mass (ie much larger bed) I suspect acceleration is a contributing factor for you. I tested with changing setting in Cura but once I found what solved my problem I hard set them in the eeprom.

I have the same issue. It run like a dream. so sudden it cuts off

Any updates on this? Mine is doing the same thing... New printer

I got same figure. Same left arm broke off aswell

I have the same issue with my Kobra 2 Max. It started after about 100 hrs of printing and I wan't able to resolve it yet. Anycubic just sent me a new PCB, but that didn't help. Looking through the comments of your videos and other videos about the same issue, where people replaced motors, hotends, etc, I wonder if there is a solution at all.

Mine's about 2 weeks old. Its reached about a hundred hours too and started doing _absolutely massive_ layer shifts on the y axis. Im about ready to return the damn thing...

I had the same thing happen (owned the machine 1 month). Was hearing noises from the Y motor as well. I think it was slipping, causing the layer shift in the same direction as you. They are sending me a new motor now. I'll share the results.

and maybe the same amount of fail prints and lost hair XD... plz let me know if u get a soluten from the support ... i also started a ticket <3

hey dude i have the same problem here ... 🤣

😠 'Promo SM'

That is a shame. I've the previous 1/12 verycool releases: Campus Gun Girl, Villa, and Assassin, and yeah they are fragile, but havent broke on me. Have you attempted any kind of repair to her?

❤

I cancelled my Anakin on amazon because I found M Bison at target and only had enough for one! Regardless I still want this Anakin if not only to complete my episode one cast!

Padme is more worth it

For me I think it's something like €30 for him. I'm just going to wait for him to go on sale

Waiting for this to hit clearance then MAYBE, I will consider it. Hasbro is a hit or miss, not all of their products are top tier. Sadly

Oh hey look! It's the issue I have after replacing a blown out power supply! I'm wondering if it's a lose connection perhaps?

❤

Cool

With such less accessories and pretty poor articulation, high chance it might drop price.

Hi there, I have the same kind of problem, and right now I belive it's the sg15 ball bearings where the extruder goes from left to right, it's small wabble that I can't get rid of whit the nut. It's just an idea tho

Having fought layer shift on my kobra 2 I know the pain you're going through. I noticed that in my case it began to get significantly more frequent before the Y axis fully bit the dust and the main board has to be replaced. Found the Y axis vref was set VERY high on the old and new boards and I suspect this is to allow for the higher print speeds but I don't believe that this is the best approach. My board uses GC6609 drivers which my searches have shown to be low current clones of TMC2208 drivers and this, I think, is the root of the problem. To get the higher speeds the bed must move faster which means a stronger motor which means higher Y current is needed. But the drivers just can't keep up with the motor's needs and go toes up. I think genuine TMC2209 drivers, or driver's that can go higher than 2A for sustained periods, plus a stronger Y motor would solve this problem. I can only guess anycubic went the route they did to save costs but I HAVE to believe they are spending more on warranty work and replacement parts than they would in a properly specc'd driver/motor combo. I might be completely wrong however but once this replacement board dies, and I am positive it will, I'll replace with a manta m5p and go full klipper. Mechanically these are great printers but the boards and firmware leave a lot to be desired.

ya i have the same noise and problem

Only one from this line I've gotten so far is the Techno-Viper, which I absolutely love. Pretty sure I'm gonna have to get Quick Kick. And wait for the eventual Alpine.

I’m having the same issues. Have not been able to print a single thing yet. Reviewed the same processes. The first layer comes out ok. The second layer is a sh@t show. Restored to factory. Have auto leveled. I still can’t get my first print on this machine. I’ll keep trying

Solid review.

Yeah that 155 price tag is steep ....

ciekawy filmik pozdrawiam!
