FAQ
Is the Anycubic ACE 2 Pro compatible with printers other than the Kobra 3 Max? The product information specifies that this hub is designed for the Anycubic Kobra 3 Max and mentions it is a next-generation feed system for Anycubic FDM printers including the Kobra 3 Max, but does not list other specific models as supported.
Can I dry my filament while the printer is actively running? Yes, the ACE 2 Pro features an active drying system that reaches up to 65degrees C and works simultaneously with printing, allowing you to keep your spools fresh without stopping production.
What specific filaments are best suited for the drying function of this hub? The device is most suitable for drying PLA, PETG, and PVB. It can also handle ASA, ABS, PET, PA, PC, PP, BVOH, POM, HIPS, and fiber-reinforced materials, though these are listed as compatible but not optimal for the active drying process.
How does the system prevent filament jams during operation? The hub uses four independent brushless motors with a buffer mechanism to ensure smooth feeding at 50 mm/s. It also features an externally mounted quick-release PTFE tube that allows users to clear any jams quickly and easily.
What are the power requirements for operating this unit? The ACE 2 Pro draws a maximum of 330W at 220V or 235W at 110V. It operates quietly, producing under 48 dB when used with closed-door printing.
Does the package include the Anycubic Kobra 3 Max printer? No, this product only contains the ACE 2 Pro unit and associated accessories like power cords and tubes; it does not include the Kobra 3 Max printer or any additional filaments.
