Our take on the Kobra S1 Max
The Kobra S1 Max is Anycubic's large enclosed printer for engineering materials: 350 × 350 × 350 mm, an actively heated chamber up to 65 °C, a hardened-steel nozzle up to 350 °C and a 120 °C bed, with 4-spool ACE Pro multicolour. It's for people printing large parts in ABS, ASA or fibre-filled filaments who also want colour.
Its direct rival is the Creality K2 Plus: same volume and the same idea, with a chamber heated up to 60 °C and Creality's CFS. The S1 Max declares the higher chamber temperature of the two. If waste-free multicolour matters more than size, the Snapmaker U1 bets on four toolheads in a smaller volume.
The weightiest downside is power: its rated 2,200 W is the highest among the catalogue printers that publish the figure (it's a heat-up peak, not continuous draw; we explain it in how much electricity a 3D printer uses). It weighs almost 26 kg and needs a sturdy table.

What materials can the Kobra S1 Max print?
This comes from four facts on its spec sheet: the nozzle reaches 350 °C, the bed 120 °C, and the machine is enclosed with a direct-drive extruder. Those four facts decide most of the list: nozzle temperature sets the ceiling on what you can melt, the bed decides whether the first layer sticks, the enclosure keeps large parts from warping, and the extruder type rules flexibles. We don't test the machine — this is guidance derived from verified data, not a guarantee.
In short: it prints PLA, PETG, TPU (flexible), ABS, ASA, Nylon (PA), Policarbonato (PC) without a fight.
| Material | Prints it? | Why |
|---|---|---|
| PLA | Yes | Yes. PLA has no special needs: any FDM printer like the Kobra S1 Max prints it out of the box. |
| PETG | Yes | Yes. With a nozzle up to 350 °C and a bed up to 120 °C it comfortably meets PETG's needs. |
| TPU (flexible) | Yes | Yes. It has a direct-drive extruder, ideal for flexibles; prints TPU well (go slow). |
| ABS | Yes | Yes. Nozzle up to 350 °C and an enclosure: it contains ABS's warping and fumes. |
| ASA | Yes | Yes. Nozzle up to 350 °C and an enclosure: it contains ASA's warping and fumes. |
| Nylon (PA) | Yes | Yes. It reaches 350 °C and is enclosed: it prints Nylon (dry it well first). For carbon-fibre variants, use a hardened-steel nozzle. |
| Policarbonato (PC) | Yes | Yes. Nozzle up to 350 °C and an enclosure with active heating: suitable for PC. For carbon-fibre variants, use a hardened-steel nozzle. |
