| Property | Anycubic Photon Mono M7 MaxRESIN | Anycubic VyperBEDSLINGER |
|---|---|---|
| Identity | ||
| Brand | Anycubic | Anycubic |
| Class | RESIN | BEDSLINGER |
| Identity & Market | ||
| Manufacturer & exact marketed model name (verify the exact product identity first) | Anycubic Photon Mono M7 Max[1] | Anycubic Vyper[2] |
| Release date (announcement and actual shipping) | Not documented | Listed on the Anycubic store from 22 May 2021 (Shopify publish date)[2] |
| Street price (USD; dated snapshot per entry) | $749 advertised base sale/from price; $899 compare-at, not launch MSRP. Global USD storefront, Other plug/no resin selected; US price, availability, shipping and tax require checkout. Checked 2026-10-17.[1] | $359.00 on store.anycubic.com, Aug 2026, with the compare-at price also $359.00 (no discount running) - notably more than the newer and much faster Kobra 2 at $169[2][3] |
| Variants & sibling models — and how to tell them apart (spec-contamination risk) | Not documented | A 2021-generation machine still on sale next to the far faster Kobra line. Its defining differences from every Kobra here: a Bowden extruder rather than direct drive, a 180 mm/s ceiling rather than 300-600 mm/s, and 16-point levelling rather than LeviQ 2.0/3.0. Do not read Kobra performance figures onto it[2][3][4] |
| Market position: superseded? successor announced? | Not documented | Effectively superseded by the Kobra line, but still listed for sale on the Anycubic store in Aug 2026[2] |
| Physical & Frame | ||
| Build volume X×Y×Z (mm) — advertised vs actually usable | 298 × 164 × 300 mm (X × Y × Z), advertised 14.7 L; usable volume not independently measured.[1] | 260 x 245 x 245 mm stated as HWD, i.e. 245 x 245 x 260 mm in the usual X x Y x Z order; Anycubic quotes a 15.6 L build volume[2] |
| Machine footprint (mm) & clearance needed (cable/spool overhang) | Not documented | 516 x 508 x 457 mm stated as HWD, so the desk footprint is about 508 x 457 mm[2] |
| Net weight (kg) | 24 kg (manufacturer specification)[1] | 10 kg[2] |
| Enclosure: open / enclosed; panel material; door/lid | Not documented | Open frame, no enclosure[2] |
| Kinematics & Motion Hardware | ||
| Kinematics (bedslinger i3 / CoreXY / other) | Not documented | Cartesian bed-slinger[2] |
| Z-axis: leadscrew count & type, sync mechanism, anti-backlash | Dual linear Z rails; manufacturer states 10 µm precision.[1] | Not documented |
| Stepper drivers (exact model e.g. TMC2209; UART/SPI; sensorless homing?) | Not documented | TMC2209 silent drivers on a 32-bit mainboard with a Cortex-M3 class main control chip - one of the few Anycubic machines where the driver part number is published[2] |
| Speed & Acceleration | ||
| Max print speed (claimed, mm/s) | Not documented | 180 mm/s maximum print speed with 80 mm/s recommended (manufacturer figures)[2] |
| Recommended/typical print speed | Not documented | 80 mm/s typical/recommended print speed (manufacturer figure)[2] |
| Extruder | ||
| Type (direct drive / bowden) & design name | Not documented | Anycubic's own Bowden extruder - not direct drive[2] |
| Hotend & Nozzle | ||
| Max nozzle temp claimed AND firmware max temp limit (both values) | Not documented | 260 C operational nozzle temperature ceiling[2] |
| Heated Bed & Surface | ||
| Max bed temp claimed AND firmware limit | Not documented | 110 C operational hot bed temperature ceiling[2] |
| Bed surface (material, texture, coating), single/double-sided | Laser-engraved aluminium build plate[1] | PEI-coated stainless spring steel magnetic flexible platform, chosen by Anycubic over carborundum glass to avoid arching[2] |
| Leveling & Z-Offset | ||
| Auto bed leveling: probe technology (inductive / strain gauge / load cell / touch probe) | Four-point manual leveling[1] | 16-point automatic levelling[2] |
| Electronics & Power | ||
| PSU (brand, wattage, rail voltage) | 180 W power supply (manufacturer specification; not measured consumption)[1] | Not documented |
| Total rated power draw | Not documented | 100-240 V AC 50/60 Hz input; 24 V / 14.6 A (350 W) output[2] |
| Connectivity, UI & Camera | ||
| Display: size, type, touch? | 4.3-inch touchscreen[1] | 4.3-inch LCD touch-control screen[2] |
| WiFi (band/standard), Ethernet, USB ports, SD/flash-drive | USB and Wi-Fi; store still labels LAN as scheduled, so availability is unverified.[1] | TransFlash (microSD) card; USB cable connection is flagged by Anycubic as being for expert users only[2] |
| Calibration Routines & QoL | ||
| Assembly level & time from unbox to first print | Not documented | Modular design with 4 major pre-assembled modules[2] |
| Materials Support | ||
| Officially supported filament list | Not documented | PLA, ABS, PETG, TPU and wood-filled filament[2] |
| Reliability, Support & Ecosystem | ||
| Warranty length & support reputation (evidence, not vibes) | Not documented | One year on the complete machine (excluding gifted and second-hand machines), with component warranty periods that vary by part; the period starts on the delivery date and is suspended while a replacement is in transit. Anycubic states it will follow longer local statutory periods where they apply[5] |
| Resin & MSLA | ||
| Masking LCD | 13.6-inch monochrome 7K masking LCD, 46 × 46 µm XY pixel pitch (manufacturer specification)[1] | Not documented |
| Light source | COB + Fresnel lens + light-uniformity algorithm[1] | Not documented |
| Light uniformity & intensity | 4500 ±10% µW/cm² (manufacturer specification)[1] | Not documented |
| Vertical print speedmm/h | Standard resin: ≤31 mm/h at 0.05 mm layers; ≤63 mm/h at 0.1 mm. High-speed resin: ≤86 mm/h at 0.1 mm. Manufacturer table also labels ≤63 mm/h as maximum; headline figures differ. No independent measurement added.[1] | Not documented |
| Layer height range | 0.01–0.15 mm layer height[1] | Not documented |
| Release film | Improved ACF film (manufacturer description)[1] | Not documented |
| Resin vat & feeding | ≤1.3 L vat, dynamic resin temperature control and auto-fill/recycling support (manufacturer specifications).[1] | Not documented |
| Fume extraction | Optional air purifier; filtration efficacy not independently verified.[1] | Not documented |
Manufacturer claims, independent measurements, packages and test conditions retain their source wording. FDM linear speed and resin vertical speed use different units and are not directly comparable. Unknown values are marked “Not documented”. Prices and source dates remain historical snapshots; check the linked guide for product details. Differences highlight text, not a universal winner.
