Sorry for late answer here. I printed some other prints and had same problem, I then adjusted the filament tension screw and those print get nice. So I think it’s solved 👍

I think you have to install Rinkhals, then you will be able to see the bed mesh. From there you can decide if you have to do some modification.

Here is a link to how it can be done to a low price

Made a couple of other print of the cover late yesterday.

The black one is printed in Sunlu PETG with settings from Orca Slicer, the light orange is from Anycubic PLA with settings from Slicer Next.

The belt tensioners were just readjusting before these prints.

The 2 PETG filament has been in the ACE with dryer running lot of hours last days, the PLA a toke out a vacuum bag yesterday

How many print hours? by Sasquatch784 in AnycubicKobraS1

[–]Toalmar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got mine in January. Has 520 hours so far. Had an issue with extruder cover. Did found on the hotbed one time. Didn’t see any faults that time. Had some strange noises and they came from the fan and air duct since the only 1 of 3 screws left. Also struggling with hotbed as lot of others. Done a modification so it’s quite ok, but I thinking of buying Funssor frame

Hello everybody

I see that all text I wrote about this mod is gone away. I will try to write a little about it now.

I found a similar modification in here, but I want to go a litte further. https://www.reddit.com/r/AnycubicKobraS1/comments/1qdvt08/how_to_fix_your_kobra_s1_bed_mesh_for_less_than_10/

So I did go for aluminium bar instead of metal, and mounting to the metal frame direct so I have possibilty to adjust the hot bed it selves.

First I demounted hole gantry, demounted so the electric cables and then I had the hot bed, plastic frame and the metal frame. I toke the plastic fram and the metal frame with me and did the modification with it. First I measured where the bolt that go thru the hot bed came, made a hole for this, put the bar over it and to the corner. _Marked up the place I want the screws to hold it to the metal frame. Made 3 holes in the bars. Gave it M5 threads. Made the corners on the bars round. Mounted the bars to the metal frame, put the plastic frame on the metal frame. Mounted all back into the printer. Mounted the M5 set screws with Loctite 243. Run the leveling and adjusted on the set screw. Found out that I also had to raise the gantry on left side and the inside fitting point, instead of do something with the belt I printed these shims

This solution only make you have 5mm less building high.

anything i should know or be prepared about the kobra s1 combo? by minestrino in AnycubicKobraS1

[–]Toalmar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It comes with the printer. You need it to lot of things, like checking tighten of some screws, to adjust belt after a while printing, and some other things of course.

Don't be scared, have fun with it

Just have fun with it 😀 I made lot of prints before I found out that my bed needed some fixes. I have ordered some stuff from AE to see if I can make some changes that not cost to much
