ClassRESINCOREXY
Identity & Market
Manufacturer & exact marketed model name (verify the exact product identity first)Anycubic Photon Mono M7 Max[1]Flashforge Adventurer 5M Pro; FlashForge's own spec table gives the machine name as "Adventurer 5M PRO" and the store abbreviates it AD5M Pro[2][3]
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]$449.00 sale against a $599.00 regular price on flashforge.com, in stock, with a further $80 auto-applied in cart, checked Aug 2026. FlashForge's own product feed lists the first variant at $399.00, so the price you see depends on the variant selected. A refurbished AD5M Pro is listed at $339.00[2][3]
Variants & sibling models — and how to tell them apart (spec-contamination risk)Not documentedEnclosed sibling of the open-frame Adventurer 5M (same 220 mm cube, same 280 °C nozzle, same 600 mm/s, but 100 °C bed vs 110 °C and no filtration). Also distinct from the AD5X, which shares the chassis but has a 300 °C nozzle, a 4-colour IFS unit and no air filtration. Refurbished units of all three are sold separately[2][4][5][3]
Physical & Frame
Build volume X×Y×Z (mm) — advertised vs actually usable298 × 164 × 300 mm (X × Y × Z), advertised 14.7 L; usable volume not independently measured.[1]220 x 220 x 220 mm advertised[2][6]
Machine footprint (mm) & clearance needed (cable/spool overhang)Not documented380 x 400 x 453 mm excluding the spool holder[2][6]
Net weight (kg)24 kg (manufacturer specification)[1]Not documented
Frame construction & materialNot documentedAll-metal CoreXY structure (FlashForge writes it "CoXY")[2]
Enclosure: open / enclosed; panel material; door/lidNot documentedEnclosed. Dual-layer HEPA plus activated-carbon filtration on both internal and external circulation; FlashForge claims 99% capture of particles and VOCs[2][6]
Kinematics & Motion Hardware
Kinematics (bedslinger i3 / CoreXY / other)Not documentedCoreXY[2][7]
Z-axis: leadscrew count & type, sync mechanism, anti-backlashDual linear Z rails; manufacturer states 10 µm precision.[1]Not documented
Speed & Acceleration
Max print speed (claimed, mm/s)Not documented600 mm/s maximum travel speed (FlashForge's own table labels the 600 mm/s figure "Max Travel Speed", not print speed)[2][6]
Max acceleration (claimed, mm/s²)Not documented20,000 mm/s2 maximum (manufacturer claim)[2][6]
Extruder
Type (direct drive / bowden) & design nameNot documentedDirect drive, one extruder[2][6]
Hotend & Nozzle
Max nozzle temp claimed AND firmware max temp limit (both values)Not documented280 °C claimed[2][6]
Stock nozzle size & sizes included in boxNot documented0.4 mm standard; 0.25, 0.6 and 0.8 mm available[2]
Heated Bed & Surface
Max bed temp claimed AND firmware limitNot documentedConflicting manufacturer figures: FlashForge's own spec table says 100 °C platform temperature, 3DJake's table says 110 °C. Lower vendor figure used as the sortable value[2][6]
Bed surface (material, texture, coating), single/double-sidedLaser-engraved aluminium build plate[1]Flexible removable PEI-coated spring-steel plate[2][6]
Leveling & Z-Offset
Auto bed leveling: probe technology (inductive / strain gauge / load cell / touch probe)Four-point manual leveling[1]Automatic levelling; FlashForge does not name the probe technology on the product page[2]
Filament Handling & Detection
Filament runout sensor (type, location)Not documentedFilament run-out reminder[2]
Cooling & Air Handling
Chamber/exhaust fan & filtration (activated carbon / HEPA)Not documentedInternal plus external circulation with a HEPA and activated-carbon filter[2][6]
Electronics & Power
PSU (brand, wattage, rail voltage)180 W power supply (manufacturer specification; not measured consumption)[1]Not documented
Input voltage (110/220 V, switch or auto)Not documentedAC 100-120 V / 200-240 V, 50/60 Hz[2][6]
Total rated power drawNot documented350 W rated[2][6]
Connectivity, UI & Camera
Display: size, type, touch?4.3-inch touchscreen[1]4.3-inch screen[2][6]
WiFi (band/standard), Ethernet, USB ports, SD/flash-driveUSB and Wi-Fi; store still labels LAN as scheduled, so availability is unverified.[1]Wi-Fi, Ethernet, USB[2][6]
Camera: built-in / optional? Resolution & framerate (verify — marketing often omits real fps)Not documentedCamera monitoring listed; resolution and framerate not published[2]
Power-Loss & Interruption Recovery
Power-loss recovery: mechanism (how is state saved? capacitor / eeprom / file on shutdown?)Not documentedPower-loss recovery, plus automatic shutdown[2]
Materials Support
Officially supported filament listNot documentedPLA and PETG on the 0.4 mm nozzle; ABS/ASA; TPU, PLA-CF and PETG-CF on 0.6/0.8 mm nozzles[2]
Noise & Power Consumption
Noise: claimed dB and independently measured dB (distance/method)Not documentedManufacturer claim only, no independent measurement: 50 dB in low-noise mode, 55 dB in standard mode. Distance and method not stated[2]
Reliability, Support & Ecosystem
Warranty length & support reputation (evidence, not vibes)Not documentedFlashForge's Adventurer 5M page states a 12-month limited warranty for that model; the 5M Pro page does not restate it[4]
Resin & MSLA
Masking LCD13.6-inch monochrome 7K masking LCD, 46 × 46 µm XY pixel pitch (manufacturer specification)[1]Not documented
Light sourceCOB + Fresnel lens + light-uniformity algorithm[1]Not documented
Light uniformity & intensity4500 ±10% µW/cm² (manufacturer specification)[1]Not documented
Vertical print speedmm/hStandard 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 range0.01–0.15 mm layer height[1]Not documented
Release filmImproved 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 extractionOptional 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.
