Identity & Market
Manufacturer & exact marketed model name (verify the exact product identity first)ANYCUBIC Photon Mono M7[1][2]Roboze ARGO 350 3D Printer[3]
Street price (USD; dated snapshot per entry)$493.00 on store.anycubic.com against a $597.00 compare-at price, in stock and quoted as shipping in 24 hours, checked Aug 2026[1]Not documented
Variants & sibling models — and how to tell them apart (spec-contamination risk)Distinct from the Photon Mono M7 Pro, which shares the 223 x 126 x 230 mm envelope and a 10.1-inch 14K LCD but adds LighTurbo 3.0 optics, a heated peristaltic-pump vat and auto resin refill, and runs 170 vs 150 mm/h on high-speed resin. The M5s is a different machine again (12K, 218 x 123 x 200 mm). 3DJake shows the M7 sold out[1][4][5][2][6]Single-extruder machine; the ARGO 500 is dual-extruder with a 500 mm cube, an 11-inch screen and 1700 kg. Both quote a 450 °C nozzle and a 180 °C chamber, so temperature figures will not tell them apart — extruder count, build size and weight will. Pricing note: Not published. Top 3D Shop lists the machine as available on backorder with a 3-5 week lead time but requires a quote request rather than showing a price, checked Aug 2026[3][7]

Enclosure: open / enclosed; panel material; door/lidOpen-frame MSLA with a UV-blocking cover[1]Enclosed[3]
Passive chamber temperature reached (if enclosed; measured values preferred)Not documented180 °C chamber temperature (manufacturer specification, actively heated)[3]
Kinematics & Motion Hardware
Kinematics (bedslinger i3 / CoreXY / other)MSLA, single Z axis on dual linear rails, straight-lift peel[1][2]CoreXY[3]
Z-axis: leadscrew count & type, sync mechanism, anti-backlashDual linear rails, Anycubic quotes 10 um Z precision[1]Not documented
Extruder
Type (direct drive / bowden) & design nameNot documentedSingle extruder, 1.75 mm filament[3]
Hotend & Nozzle
Max nozzle temp claimed AND firmware max temp limit (both values)Not documented450 °C maximum nozzle temperature (manufacturer specification)[3]
Stock nozzle size & sizes included in boxNot documented0.4 mm[3]
Heated Bed & Surface
Bed surface (material, texture, coating), single/double-sidedLaser-engraved build plate[1]Removable polymer build sheets held by vacuum[3]
Leveling & Z-Offset
Auto bed leveling: probe technology (inductive / strain gauge / load cell / touch probe)Levelling-free — no user levelling step[1][2]Not documented
Electronics & Power
Total rated power draw135 W power supply[1]Not documented
Firmware & Openness
Firmware base & current version (Klipper fork / Marlin fork / proprietary)Not documentedProprietary; the recommended software is Roboze Prometheus[3]
Connectivity, UI & Camera
Display: size, type, touch?4.3-inch touch control screen (control panel — not the masking LCD, see W1)[1]7-inch colour touchscreen[3]
WiFi (band/standard), Ethernet, USB ports, SD/flash-driveUSB and Wi-Fi[2]USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi[3]
Camera features: live monitor, timelapse, AI failure detection (spaghetti detection) — how real is it?Failed-print detection[2]Not documented
Materials Support
Officially supported filament listHigh-speed, water-washable, standard, ABS-like and plant-based resins (Anycubic's own list)[1]PEEK, Carbon PEEK, Carbon PA, ULTEM AM9085F, PC, Functional-nylon, ABS-ESD, PP, Flex-TPU, Strong-ABS, Ultra-PLA and others[3]
Independently Measured Performance
Dimensional accuracy measurements (third-party, with numbers)Not documentedXY accuracy 0.01 mm, Z accuracy 0.025 mm (manufacturer specification, not an independent measurement)[3]
Resin & MSLA
Masking LCD10.1-inch monochrome masking LCD at 14K, XY pixel pitch 16.8 x 24.8 um (manufacturer specification)[1][2]Not documented
Light sourceCOB light source with a Fresnel lens and a light-uniformity algorithm[1][2]Not documented
Light uniformity & intensityUniformity >=90% and intensity 4500 +/-10% uW/cm2 (both manufacturer claims, no independent measurement). Anycubic also states light intensity is uniform within an angle of <=3 degrees[1][2]Not documented
Vertical print speedmm/h150 mm/h with high-speed resin at 0.1 mm layer height; 90 mm/h with standard resin at the same layer height. Anycubic's headline maximum is 90 mm/h for standard resin, so the 150 figure is resin-dependent (manufacturer claims)[1][2]Not documented
Layer height range0.01-0.15 mm[1]Not documented
Release filmImproved ACF film. No rated life published for this model (the M7 Pro's ACF film is rated ~45,000 uses)[1][2][6]Not documented
Resin vat & feedingResin vat capacity up to 1 L, with resin level monitoring. No auto-refill on this model[1][2]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.
