Identity & Market
Manufacturer & exact marketed model name (verify the exact product identity first)Creality Ender-3 V3 Plus, marketed as a "Plus-sized CoreXZ 3D Printer"[1]Sovol SV06 Plus ACE 3D Printer[2][3]
Street price (USD; dated snapshot per entry)$339.00 on store.creality.com, Aug 2026[4]$299.00 on sovol3d.com against a $349.00 compare-at price, in stock and shipping from US/EU/CA/AU/UK/CN warehouses, checked Aug 2026[2][3]
Variants & sibling models — and how to tell them apart (spec-contamination risk)Larger sibling of the Ender-3 V3 on the same CoreXZ platform: 300 x 300 x 330 mm against 220 x 220 x 250 mm, with dual Y-axis motors and support rods added to carry the bigger bed. Not to be confused with the bed-slinger SE and KE, which are not CoreXZ[1][5]Larger sibling of the SV06 ACE ($239, 220x220x250). Differs from the non-ACE SV06 Plus by Z height (350 vs 340 mm), Klipper on an RK3308, ceramic-plate hotend, 4.3-inch capacitive touchscreen and a camera. Notably it has NO power-loss recovery, which the older SV06 did have[2][3][6]
Physical & Frame
Build volume X×Y×Z (mm) — advertised vs actually usable300 x 300 x 330 mm[1]300 x 300 x 350 mm advertised[2]
Machine footprint (mm) & clearance needed (cable/spool overhang)410 x 445 x 577 mm[1]510 x 575 x 710 mm including screen and filament holder[2]
Frame construction & materialNot documentedOpen i3-style frame; Sovol publishes no frame-material breakdown[2]
Enclosure: open / enclosed; panel material; door/lidOpen frame, no enclosure[1]Open frame, no enclosure[2]
Kinematics & Motion Hardware
Kinematics (bedslinger i3 / CoreXY / other)CoreXZ - Creality states the X and Z axes are rigged together so two high-torque motors work in unison; the bed moves in Y on dual motors and support rods[1]Cartesian i3 bedslinger[2]
Y-axis guide typeY axis driven by two 500 mN.m motors running on two linear rods[1]Not documented
Belts (type, width, e.g. Gates?)XZ timing belts are tensioned automatically, which Creality offers as the fix for belt slip and jams[1]Not documented
Speed & Acceleration
Max print speed (claimed, mm/s)600 mm/s max printing speed (Creality Lab claim)[1]500 mm/s maximum (manufacturer claim)[2]
Recommended/typical print speed300 mm/s typical printing speed (Creality Lab figure, stated in the same footnote as the 600 mm/s claim)[1]Not documented
Max acceleration (claimed, mm/s²)20000 mm/s2 max acceleration (Creality Lab claim)[1]15,000 mm/s2 maximum (manufacturer claim)[2]
Extruder
Type (direct drive / bowden) & design nameDirect-drive extruder kit that Creality markets as clog-free[1]Planetary double-gear direct drive, 1:7.5 reduction[2]
Gear ratio & drive gear materialNot documented1:7.5[2]
Hotend & Nozzle
Hotend design (proprietary/standard; quick-swap mechanism?)Quick-swap tri-metal nozzle[1]Ceramic heating plate hotend; 0.4 mm nozzle included, 0.6 and 0.8 mm optional[2]
Max nozzle temp claimed AND firmware max temp limit (both values)Not documented<=300 °C claimed[2]
Heated Bed & Surface
Max bed temp claimed AND firmware limitNot documented100 °C claimed[2]
Bed surface (material, texture, coating), single/double-sidedNot documentedDouble-sided textured PEI plate[2]
Leveling & Z-Offset
Auto bed leveling: probe technology (inductive / strain gauge / load cell / touch probe)Not documentedAutomatic levelling (Sovol calls the ACE upgrade an added automatic levelling function); probe technology not named on this page[2]
Filament Handling & Detection
Filament runout sensor (type, location)Not documentedFilament run-out sensor fitted; type and location not published[2]
Cooling & Air Handling
Part-cooling fan(s): count, size, ducting designTwo part-cooling fans[1]Not documented
Electronics & Power
Host computer (SoC, RAM, storage) if firmware runs on embedded LinuxNot documentedRockchip RK3308 ("3308 chip"), 512 MB RAM, 8 GB eMMC[2]
PSU (brand, wattage, rail voltage)Not documented500 W / 24 V, 100-240 VAC 50/60 Hz[2]
Firmware & Openness
Firmware base & current version (Klipper fork / Marlin fork / proprietary)Not documentedKlipper. Sovol does not publish the fork or version on the product page. OTA updates supported[2]
Connectivity, UI & Camera
Display: size, type, touch?Not documented4.3-inch capacitive touchscreen[2]
WiFi (band/standard), Ethernet, USB ports, SD/flash-driveNot documentedWi-Fi 2.4 GHz only, WPA2 only (WPA3 explicitly not supported)[2]
Camera: built-in / optional? Resolution & framerate (verify — marketing often omits real fps)Not documentedBuilt-in camera, default 640x480, maximum 1280x720 (Sovol writes it as 1080x720P)[2]
Power-Loss & Interruption Recovery
Power-loss recovery: mechanism (how is state saved? capacitor / eeprom / file on shutdown?)Not documentedNone. Sovol's own spec table states "Power Loss Recovery: None" for this model[2]
Materials Support
Officially supported filament listNot documentedPLA, PETG, TPU, PVA[2]
Reliability, Support & Ecosystem
Warranty length & support reputation (evidence, not vibes)Creality's US store states "Up to 12-Month Warranty", a 14-day return and refund window and "Lifetime Customer Support" on its printer product pages. The "up to" wording means the term is not uniform across parts[7]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.
