Identity
BrandAnycubicUltiMaker
ClassRESININDUSTRIAL
Identity & Market
Manufacturer & exact marketed model name (verify the exact product identity first)Anycubic Photon Mono M7 Max[1]UltiMaker S7[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]$5,999.00 for the standard model at 3D Universe, in stock, checked Aug 2026[2]
Variants & sibling models — and how to tell them apart (spec-contamination risk)Not documentedSame 330 x 240 x 300 mm envelope as the S5 and S8. The S7 is distinguished from the S5 by a PEI-coated flexible build plate (rather than glass) and dual-band Wi-Fi; from the S8 by nozzle temperature (S8 reaches 340 °C) and speed (S8 quotes 500 mm/s and 50,000 mm/s2)[2][3][4]
Market position: superseded? successor announced?Not documentedSuperseded by the S8, launched March 2025, which UltiMaker markets as four times more productive[4][5]

Machine footprint (mm) & clearance needed (cable/spool overhang)Not documented495 x 585 x 780 mm with the spool holder[2]
Net weight (kg)24 kg (manufacturer specification)[1]Not documented
Frame construction & materialNot documentedFully assembled professional chassis[2]
Kinematics & Motion Hardware
Kinematics (bedslinger i3 / CoreXY / other)Not documentedDual-extrusion gantry with auto nozzle-lifting and swappable print cores; kinematic layout not published[2]
Z-axis: leadscrew count & type, sync mechanism, anti-backlashDual linear Z rails; manufacturer states 10 µm precision.[1]Not documented
Speed & Acceleration
Max volumetric flow claimed (mm³/s)Not documentedBuild speed under 24 mm3/s (manufacturer figure)[2]
Extruder
Type (direct drive / bowden) & design nameNot documentedDual extrusion with swappable print cores[2]
Filament diameterNot documented2.85 mm[2]
Hotend & Nozzle
Stock nozzle size & sizes included in boxNot documented0.4 mm standard; 0.25, 0.6 and 0.8 mm available separately[2]
Heated Bed & Surface
Max bed temp claimed AND firmware limitNot documentedPEI-coated flexible build plate, 20-140 °C[2]
Bed surface (material, texture, coating), single/double-sidedLaser-engraved aluminium build plate[1]PEI-coated flexible build plate[2]
Leveling & Z-Offset
Auto bed leveling: probe technology (inductive / strain gauge / load cell / touch probe)Four-point manual leveling[1]Not documented
Electronics & Power
PSU (brand, wattage, rail voltage)180 W power supply (manufacturer specification; not measured consumption)[1]Not documented
Connectivity, UI & Camera
Display: size, type, touch?4.3-inch touchscreen[1]Not documented
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 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, LAN, USB[2]
Noise & Power Consumption
Noise: claimed dB and independently measured dB (distance/method)Not documentedUnder 50 dBA operating sound, manufacturer figure. No independent measurement[2]
Independently Measured Performance
Dimensional accuracy measurements (third-party, with numbers)Not documentedXYZ resolution 6.9 / 6.9 / 2.5 micron (manufacturer specification)[2]
Resin & MSLA
Masking LCD13.6-inch monochrome 7K masking LCD, 46 × 46 µm XY pixel pitch (manufacturer specification)[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.
