| Property | Anycubic Kobra 2 NeoBEDSLINGER | Roboze ARGO 350INDUSTRIAL |
|---|---|---|
| Identity | ||
| Brand | Anycubic | Roboze |
| Class | BEDSLINGER | INDUSTRIAL |
| Identity & Market | ||
| Manufacturer & exact marketed model name (verify the exact product identity first) | Anycubic Kobra 2 Neo[1] | Roboze ARGO 350 3D Printer[2] |
| Release date (announcement and actual shipping) | Listed on the Anycubic store from 31 August 2023 (Shopify publish date), the same day as the Kobra 2 Plus and Kobra 2 Max[1][3][4] | Not documented |
| Street price (USD; dated snapshot per entry) | $249.00 on store.anycubic.com, Aug 2026 - higher than the better-specified Kobra 2 at $169 on the same day, which is a listing quirk rather than a positioning statement[1][5] | Not documented |
| Variants & sibling models — and how to tell them apart (spec-contamination risk) | Lowest model of the Kobra 2 family. Same 220 x 220 x 250 mm build volume as the Kobra 2 and Kobra 2 Pro but the slowest of the three (250 mm/s max, 150 mm/s typical against 300/200 and 500/300), and the only one with a 2.4-inch knob-driven screen instead of a 4.3-inch touchscreen[1][5][6] | Single-extruder machine; the ARGO 500 is dual-extruder with a 500 mm cube, an 11-inch screen and 1700 kg. Both quote a 450 °C nozzle and a 180 °C chamber, so temperature figures will not tell them apart — extruder count, build size and weight will. Pricing note: Not published. Top 3D Shop lists the machine as available on backorder with a 3-5 week lead time but requires a quote request rather than showing a price, checked Aug 2026[2][7] |
| Physical & Frame | ||
| Build volume X×Y×Z (mm) — advertised vs actually usable | 250 x 220 x 220 mm stated HWD, i.e. 220 x 220 x 250 mm; 12.1 L[1] | 350 x 300 x 300 mm[2] |
| Machine footprint (mm) & clearance needed (cable/spool overhang) | 485 x 440 x 440 mm stated HWD - footprint about 440 x 440 mm[1] | 1130 x 1150 x 2000 mm[2] |
| Net weight (kg) | 7.3 kg[1] | 1200 kg[2] |
| Frame construction & material | Not documented | Fully assembled, made in Italy[2] |
| Enclosure: open / enclosed; panel material; door/lid | Open frame, no enclosure[1] | Enclosed[2] |
| Passive chamber temperature reached (if enclosed; measured values preferred) | Not documented | 180 °C chamber temperature (manufacturer specification, actively heated)[2] |
| Kinematics & Motion Hardware | ||
| Kinematics (bedslinger i3 / CoreXY / other) | Cartesian bed-slinger with a gantry frame structure built from 5 modules[1] | CoreXY[2] |
| Speed & Acceleration | ||
| Max print speed (claimed, mm/s) | 250 mm/s maximum print speed (Anycubic Lab figure)[1] | Not documented |
| Recommended/typical print speed | 150 mm/s recommended print speed (manufacturer figure)[1] | Not documented |
| Extruder | ||
| Type (direct drive / bowden) & design name | Integrated direct extruder[1] | Single extruder, 1.75 mm filament[2] |
| Hotend & Nozzle | ||
| Max nozzle temp claimed AND firmware max temp limit (both values) | 260 C nozzle temperature ceiling; 0.4 mm replaceable nozzle[1] | 450 °C maximum nozzle temperature (manufacturer specification)[2] |
| Heater cartridge power (W) | 60 W hot end (manufacturer figure)[1] | Not documented |
| Stock nozzle size & sizes included in box | Not documented | 0.4 mm[2] |
| Heated Bed & Surface | ||
| Max bed temp claimed AND firmware limit | 110 C hotbed temperature ceiling[1] | Not documented |
| Bed surface (material, texture, coating), single/double-sided | Not documented | Removable polymer build sheets held by vacuum[2] |
| Leveling & Z-Offset | ||
| Auto bed leveling: probe technology (inductive / strain gauge / load cell / touch probe) | Anycubic LeviQ 2.0 automatic levelling with intelligent Z-offset compensation[1] | Not documented |
| Cooling & Air Handling | ||
| Part-cooling fan(s): count, size, ducting design | 7000 rpm cooling fan (manufacturer figure)[1] | Not documented |
| Firmware & Openness | ||
| Firmware base & current version (Klipper fork / Marlin fork / proprietary) | Marlin - Anycubic states it applies "linear propulsion and input shaping functions in Marlin firmware", which makes this one of the few Anycubic machines with a named firmware base rather than the later Kobra OS branding[1][8] | Proprietary; the recommended software is Roboze Prometheus[2] |
| Connectivity, UI & Camera | ||
| Display: size, type, touch? | 2.4-inch LCD knob screen - not a touchscreen[1] | 7-inch colour touchscreen[2] |
| On-device UI capabilities (model preview, per-object controls, etc.) | Knob-driven UI, redesigned by Anycubic for the Kobra 2 generation[1] | Not documented |
| WiFi (band/standard), Ethernet, USB ports, SD/flash-drive | Not documented | USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi[2] |
| Calibration Routines & QoL | ||
| Assembly level & time from unbox to first print | Five modules with a gantry frame design, described by Anycubic as easy assembly and low maintenance[1] | Not documented |
| Materials Support | ||
| Officially supported filament list | PLA, ABS, PETG, TPU (Kobra 2 family list)[5] | PEEK, Carbon PEEK, Carbon PA, ULTEM AM9085F, PC, Functional-nylon, ABS-ESD, PP, Flex-TPU, Strong-ABS, Ultra-PLA and others[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[9] | Not documented |
| Independently Measured Performance | ||
| Dimensional accuracy measurements (third-party, with numbers) | Not documented | XY accuracy 0.01 mm, Z accuracy 0.025 mm (manufacturer specification, not an independent measurement)[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.
