| Identity & Market | ||
| Manufacturer & exact marketed model name (verify the exact product identity first) | Anycubic Kobra 2 Pro[1] | Anycubic Photon Mono M7 Max[2] |
| Release date (announcement and actual shipping) | Listed on the Anycubic store from 2 February 2026 (Shopify publish date for this listing; the model itself is older)[1] | Not documented |
| Street price (USD; dated snapshot per entry) | $309.00 on store.anycubic.com, Aug 2026, with the compare-at price also $309.00[1] | $749 advertised base sale/from price; $899 compare-at, not launch MSRP. Global USD storefront, Other plug/no resin selected; US price, availability, shipping and tax require checkout. Checked 2026-10-17.[2] |
| Variants & sibling models — and how to tell them apart (spec-contamination risk) | Same 220 x 220 x 250 mm build volume as the Kobra 2 and Kobra 2 Neo, but Anycubic's own comparison table puts it at 500 mm/s max and 300 mm/s typical against the Kobra 2's 300/200 - the build volume alone will not tell these three apart. It also adds Anycubic APP support, which the base Kobra 2 lacks[1][3][4] | Not documented |
| 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] | 298 × 164 × 300 mm (X × Y × Z), advertised 14.7 L; usable volume not independently measured.[2] |
| Machine footprint (mm) & clearance needed (cable/spool overhang) | 486 x 435 x 463 mm stated HWD - footprint about 435 x 463 mm[1] | Not documented |
| Net weight (kg) | 8.4 kg[1] | 24 kg (manufacturer specification)[2] |
| Enclosure: open / enclosed; panel material; door/lid | Open frame, no enclosure[1] | Not documented |
| Kinematics & Motion Hardware | ||
| Kinematics (bedslinger i3 / CoreXY / other) | Cartesian bed-slinger[1] | Not documented |
| Z-axis: leadscrew count & type, sync mechanism, anti-backlash | Not documented | Dual linear Z rails; manufacturer states 10 µm precision.[2] |
| Speed & Acceleration | ||
| Max print speed (claimed, mm/s) | 500 mm/s maximum print speed (Anycubic Lab figure)[1] | Not documented |
| Recommended/typical print speed | 300 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 that detects X/Y resonance frequencies, plus flow control with retraction and refill compensation[1] | Not documented |
| Extruder | ||
| Type (direct drive / bowden) & design name | Optimised direct extruder[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 | ||
| Bed surface (material, texture, coating), single/double-sided | Not documented | Laser-engraved aluminium build plate[2] |
| Leveling & Z-Offset | ||
| Auto bed leveling: probe technology (inductive / strain gauge / load cell / touch probe) | Anycubic LeviQ 2.0 automatic levelling with smart Z-offset[1] | Four-point manual leveling[2] |
| Electronics & Power | ||
| Host computer (SoC, RAM, storage) if firmware runs on embedded Linux | Cortex-A7 1.2 GHz application processor[1] | Not documented |
| PSU (brand, wattage, rail voltage) | Not documented | 180 W power supply (manufacturer specification; not measured consumption)[2] |
| Connectivity, UI & Camera | ||
| Display: size, type, touch? | Not documented | 4.3-inch touchscreen[2] |
| On-device UI capabilities (model preview, per-object controls, etc.) | Supports the Anycubic app (firmware 3.0.5 or later) for online model search, real-time video supervision, online slicing and remote control[1] | Not documented |
| WiFi (band/standard), Ethernet, USB ports, SD/flash-drive | Not documented | USB and Wi-Fi; store still labels LAN as scheduled, so availability is unverified.[2] |
| Materials Support | ||
| Officially supported filament list | PLA, ABS, PETG, TPU (Kobra 2 family list)[3] | Not documented |
| 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[5] | Not documented |
| Resin & MSLA | ||
| Masking LCD | Not documented | 13.6-inch monochrome 7K masking LCD, 46 × 46 µm XY pixel pitch (manufacturer specification)[2] |
| Light source | Not documented | COB + Fresnel lens + light-uniformity algorithm[2] |
| Light uniformity & intensity | Not documented | 4500 ±10% µW/cm² (manufacturer specification)[2] |
| Vertical print speedmm/h | Not documented | Standard resin: ≤31 mm/h at 0.05 mm layers; ≤63 mm/h at 0.1 mm. High-speed resin: ≤86 mm/h at 0.1 mm. Manufacturer table also labels ≤63 mm/h as maximum; headline figures differ. No independent measurement added.[2] |
| Layer height range | Not documented | 0.01–0.15 mm layer height[2] |
| Release film | Not documented | Improved ACF film (manufacturer description)[2] |
| Resin vat & feeding | Not documented | ≤1.3 L vat, dynamic resin temperature control and auto-fill/recycling support (manufacturer specifications).[2] |
| Fume extraction | Not documented | Optional air purifier; filtration efficacy not independently verified.[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.
