- Max print speed: Kobra 3 V2 600 mm/s vs Artillery M1 Pro S1 500 mm/s — Kobra 3 V2 wins (+20%)
Which one to choose
Choose Kobra 3 V2 if…
you value max print speed. «The rated maximum speed indicates the theoretical hardware limit, not the everyday working speed. Faster machines reduce print times on simple geometries, but real-world speed depends on material, geometry, required surface finish, and slicer settings. Values above 200–300 mm/s are meaningful only on machines with CoreXY kinematics, active input shaping, and a stiffened mechanical frame.»
