Description
The Anycubic Filament Sensor is an official OEM material runout and breakage detection module engineered specifically for the Anycubic Kobra X series 3D printers.
Mounted along the filament feeding path, this compact sensor houses high-sensitivity optical/photoelectric triggers that continuously monitor material presence in real time. If the spool runs out or the filament snaps mid-print, the module instantly sends a break signal to the mainboard, automatically pausing print head movement and parking the hotend. This prevents ghost-printing, nozzle dry-firing, and ruined print jobs, allowing users to reload fresh filament and resume printing seamlessly.
Features
Real-Time Material Monitoring: Instantly detects filament depletion, brittle snap breaks, or feeding disconnects during long print runs.
Auto-Pause & Memory Resume: Prompts the mainboard to pause extrusion, holds bed heat, and saves toolhead coordinates to resume printing after reloading.
Low Friction PTFE Through-Guide: Smooth internal filament channel design minimizes drag on flexible (TPU) and rigid (PLA/PETG) spools.
Direct OEM Kobra X Alignment: Engineered for direct pinhead connection and physical mounting on Kobra X chassis frames without custom brackets or wiring mods.
Plug-and-Play Connector: Comes pre-wired with the correct JST/3-pin harness for instant drop-in replacement on the mainboard or toolhead breakout board.
