Print quality

The Anycubic i3 Mega has a heated print bed, which makes it suitable for printing with ABS-type materials.

To ensure high reproducibility, we recommend installing an enclosed print chamber. This way the print quality will not be affected by temperature fluctuations as a result of drafts and other factors.
