Identity & Market
Manufacturer & exact marketed model name (verify the exact product identity first)Anycubic Kobra 2 Max[1]Stratasys F370, part of the Stratasys F123 Series[2]
Release date (announcement and actual shipping)Listed on the Anycubic store from 31 August 2023 (Shopify publish date)[1]The F123 series spec sheet carried is revision 0721a (July 2021). Stratasys does not print a launch date on it[2]
Street price (USD; dated snapshot per entry)$639.00 on store.anycubic.com, Aug 2026[1]Not documented
Variants & sibling models — and how to tell them apart (spec-contamination risk)Largest Kobra 2. Shares the Plus's 90 C bed ceiling and 500/300 mm/s figures but scales to 420 x 420 x 500 mm and 21 kg. Anycubic's on-page comparison is against the older Kobra Max (450 x 400 x 400 mm, Bowden, 180 mm/s), not against the Kobra 2 Plus. Note the newer Kobra 3 Max has the same 420 x 420 x 500 mm volume - build volume alone will not distinguish them[1][3][4]Top of the series and the only one with ABS-ESD7, PC-ABS and Diran 410MF07, an Insight software licence, and ProtectAM with US DoD STIG compliance on Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Cabinet and weight are identical to the F170 and F270, so footprint tells you nothing about which model you have[2]
Physical & Frame
Build volume X×Y×Z (mm) — advertised vs actually usable500 x 420 x 420 mm stated HWD, i.e. 420 x 420 x 500 mm; Anycubic quotes 88.2 L[1]355 x 254 x 355 mm (14 x 10 x 14 in)[2]
Machine footprint (mm) & clearance needed (cable/spool overhang)740 x 735 x 640 mm stated HWD - footprint about 735 x 640 mm; this is a floor- or bench-dominating machine[1]1,626 x 864 x 711 mm (64 x 34 x 28 in)[2]
Net weight (kg)21 kg[1]124 kg (F120) or 227 kg with consumables (F170, F270, F370)[2]
Frame construction & materialNot documentedFully enclosed office/classroom-grade cabinet, factory assembled[2]
Enclosure: open / enclosed; panel material; door/lidOpen frame, no enclosure[1]Enclosed build chamber[2]
Kinematics & Motion Hardware
Kinematics (bedslinger i3 / CoreXY / other)Cartesian bed-slinger with double metal spindles on X and Y and included belt tensioners[1]Not documented
Z-axis: leadscrew count & type, sync mechanism, anti-backlashDual-motor dual Z axis[1]Not documented
Speed & Acceleration
Max print speed (claimed, mm/s)500 mm/s maximum print speed (Anycubic Lab figure)[1]Not documented
Recommended/typical print speed300 mm/s typical print speed (manufacturer figure)[1]Not documented
Vibration Compensation / Input Shaping
Input shaping supported? Implementation (Klipper IS / Marlin ZV / proprietary)One-click vibration compensation on X/Y plus flow control[1]Not documented
Extruder
Type (direct drive / bowden) & design nameDirect extruder with double gears[1]Not documented
Hotend & Nozzle
Max nozzle temp claimed AND firmware max temp limit (both values)260 C nozzle temperature ceiling; 0.4 mm replaceable nozzle[1]Not documented
Heated Bed & Surface
Max bed temp claimed AND firmware limit90 C hotbed temperature ceiling[1]Not documented
Bed surface (material, texture, coating), single/double-sidedPEI magnetic spring steel plate, 420 x 420 mm[1]Not documented
Leveling & Z-Offset
Auto bed leveling: probe technology (inductive / strain gauge / load cell / touch probe)Anycubic LeviQ 2.0 automatic levelling, 49-point, with smart Z-offset[1]Not documented
Filament Handling & Detection
Filament runout sensor (type, location)Filament detection fitted as default[1]Not documented
Electronics & Power
Host computer (SoC, RAM, storage) if firmware runs on embedded LinuxCortex-A7 1.2 GHz processor; 8 GB built-in storage[1]Not documented
Input voltage (110/220 V, switch or auto)Not documented100-132 V / 15 A or 200-240 V / 7 A, 50/60 Hz[2]
Firmware & Openness
Firmware base & current version (Klipper fork / Marlin fork / proprietary)Not documentedProprietary Stratasys firmware; print preparation is GrabCAD Print. The F370 additionally carries an Insight software licence and DoD STIG compliance powered by Red Hat Enterprise Linux[2]
Connectivity, UI & Camera
WiFi (band/standard), Ethernet, USB ports, SD/flash-driveNot documentedWired TCP/IP at 100 Mbps minimum, 100base-T Ethernet, RJ45. Wireless-ready IEEE 802.11 n/g/b with WPA2-PSK or 802.1x EAP, CCMP/TKIP encryption[2]
Materials Support
Officially supported filament listPLA, ABS, PETG, TPU (Kobra 2 family list)[5]PLA, ABS-ESD7, ABS-M30, ASA, Diran 410MF072, FDM TPU 92A, PC-ABS, ABS-CF10, with QSR soluble support. Diran and PLA use breakaway rather than soluble support[2]
Safety
Certifications (UL/ETL/CE/FCC — verify, don't assume)Not documentedCE (low-voltage and EMC directives), FCC, EAC, cTUVus, KC, RoHS, WEEE, REACH, RCM[2]
Noise & Power Consumption
Noise: claimed dB and independently measured dB (distance/method)Not documented46 dB maximum during build, 35 dB idle — manufacturer specification, no distance or method stated, and not an independent measurement[2]
Reliability, Support & Ecosystem
Warranty length & support reputation (evidence, not vibes)One year on the complete machine (excluding gifted and second-hand machines), with component warranty periods that vary by part; the period starts on the delivery date and is suspended while a replacement is in transit. Anycubic states it will follow longer local statutory periods where they apply[6]Not documented
Independently Measured Performance
Dimensional accuracy measurements (third-party, with numbers)Not documentedParts produced within +/-0.200 mm or +/-0.002 mm/mm, whichever is greater. Manufacturer figure derived from statistical data at 95% dimensional yield; Z accuracy carries an extra -0.000/+slice-height tolerance[2]

Manufacturer claims, independent measurements, packages and test conditions retain their source wording. FDM linear speed and resin vertical speed use different units and are not directly comparable. Unknown values are marked “Not documented”. Prices and source dates remain historical snapshots; check the linked guide for product details. Differences highlight text, not a universal winner.
