Unfortunately, there’s no silicone sock included with the hotend, but if you want one, it’s a cheap 2$ upgrade. The heatbreak is mounted using two grub screws and it fits snuggly inside the hotend helping with thermal transfer. The hotend heatsink is a V6 clone customized for attaching it to the printer using two screws in the top.

You can upgrade the heat break with a bi-metallic or titanium heat break in the future, if you want to minimize the maintenance work you need to do from time to time, or if you mostly print higher temperature filaments like ABS, PETG, and PC. This means that your printing temperatures will be limited to around 235C-240C. V6 Volcano clone with PTFE lined hotendĪs with most of the printers out there, the Anycubic Vyper also uses a PTFE lined hotend. And the whole setup works, so that’s great. I am not a huge fan of the PTFE tube between the filament sensor and the extruder, but I can’t think of another way Anycubic could have done this. Hopefully the firmware will be updated soon. I’ve changed the value to 415 in my IdeaMaker profiles, but it’s something to keep in mind if you notice print issues. This was the main reason I got a lot of under-extrusion on the top layers. The E steps for the Anycubic Vyper extruder are set to 405 in the firmware, instead of the usual 415 value we use with BMG setups. One reason might be the space between the filament sensor and the extruder, but I think it would fit just as well. Filament is gripped from both sides using a dual-gear setup and the 3-to-1 gear ratio will provide more accurate filament control.įor some reason, the extruder is not sitting in the usual position. I used BMG clone extruders on a bunch of printers with good results and the one used by Anycubic performs just as well. The Anycubic Vyper uses a clone BMG extruder which does a good job in providing accurate extrusion. With the Anycubic Vyper, we also get the following accessories:
ANYCUBIC VYPER PRUSA SLICER MANUAL
Besides the tips sheet, I also recommend reading the Manual because it has some helpful information. This thing is also mentioned on the tips page inside the printer box, so take your time and read it before unboxing the printer. The base and the gantry are connected so you will have to remove both at the same time. Take extra precaution when removing the printer from the box. My review unit was delivered with some box damage on one side, but there was no issue present with any of the printer components. All the parts are well protected, and I don’t think there will be any issues during shipping. The Anycubic Vyper comes in a carboard box with ample foam protection on all sides. 11 Where to buy the Anycubic Vyper? Anycubic Vyper Shipping and Packaging
