| Property | Phrozen Sonic Mighty Revo 14KRESIN | QIDI i-FastIDEX |
|---|---|---|
| Identity | ||
| Brand | Phrozen | QIDI |
| Class | RESIN | IDEX |
| Identity & Market | ||
| Manufacturer & exact marketed model name (verify the exact product identity first) | Phrozen Sonic Mighty Revo 14K 10.1" LCD 3D Printer[1][2][3] | QIDI Tech i-Fast, also written iFast and "I-Fast"[4][5] |
| Release date (announcement and actual shipping) | Not documented | Not published on the listings checked (Aug 2026)[4][5] |
| Street price (USD; dated snapshot per entry) | $680.00 on us.phrozen3d.com but unavailable — backordered, shipping when back in stock, checked Aug 2026. 3DJake also shows it sold out and delisted[3][2][1] | $1,899.00 at Top 3D Shop, listed as discontinued with a 5-10 business-day lead time, checked Aug 2026. 3DJake no longer sells it[5][4] |
| Variants & sibling models — and how to tell them apart (spec-contamination risk) | The Sonic Mighty family spans several resolutions at the same 10.1-inch size and very different prices: Mighty 4K $149, Mighty 8K $410, Mighty 12K $329, Mighty Revo 14K $680, Mighty 16K $720. A "Sonic Mighty" spec box is meaningless without the resolution suffix. Sources also disagree on this model's own numbers: Phrozen gives machine dimensions 353 x 345 x 517 mm and XY 16.8 x 24.8 um, while 3DJake gives 228 x 337 x 516 mm and XY 16.8 x 24 um. Phrozen's own figures are used here. 8 GB onboard storage[2][1][3] | Ships with two interchangeable dual-extruder assemblies — a standard dual head and a high-temperature dual head rated to 350 °C. Specifications quoted for one head do not apply to the other. Not to be confused with QIDI's i-Mate or the X-CF Pro[5][4] |
| Market position: superseded? successor announced? | Not documented | Discontinued; QIDI's current line is the Q, Plus and Max series[5][6] |
| Physical & Frame | ||
| Build volume X×Y×Z (mm) — advertised vs actually usable | 223 x 126 x 235 mm[1][3] | 330 x 250 x 320 mm advertised[4][5] |
| Machine footprint (mm) & clearance needed (cable/spool overhang) | 353 x 345 x 517 mm per Phrozen. 3DJake publishes 228 x 337 x 516 mm, which cannot be right for a machine with a 223 mm-wide build area[3][1] | 710 x 510 x 670 mm[5] |
| Net weight (kg) | 18 kg[3] | 33 kg net[5] |
| Frame construction & material | Not documented | Fully assembled enclosed metal-frame machine[4] |
| Enclosure: open / enclosed; panel material; door/lid | Open-frame MSLA with a UV-blocking cover[1] | Fully enclosed with a heated chamber[4][5] |
| Kinematics & Motion Hardware | ||
| Kinematics (bedslinger i3 / CoreXY / other) | MSLA, single Z axis on dual linear guide rails with a ball screw, straight-lift peel[1][3] | Dual independent extruders in an enclosed Cartesian gantry[4][5] |
| Z-axis: leadscrew count & type, sync mechanism, anti-backlash | Dual linear guide rails with a ball screw[1][3] | Not documented |
| Speed & Acceleration | ||
| Max print speed (claimed, mm/s) | Not documented | 30-150 mm/s print speed range (manufacturer figure — a working range, not a peak marketing number)[5] |
| Extruder | ||
| Type (direct drive / bowden) & design name | Not documented | Direct-drive, two extruders. MK10-style nozzle[4][5] |
| Hotend & Nozzle | ||
| Max nozzle temp claimed AND firmware max temp limit (both values) | Not documented | 350 °C on the high-temperature extruder assembly[4][5] |
| Stock nozzle size & sizes included in box | Not documented | 0.4 mm nozzle diameter[5] |
| Leveling & Z-Offset | ||
| Auto bed leveling: probe technology (inductive / strain gauge / load cell / touch probe) | Automatic levelling[1] | Not documented |
| Electronics & Power | ||
| Input voltage (110/220 V, switch or auto) | AC 100-240 V, 50/60 Hz[3] | 110-220 V[5] |
| Total rated power draw | 240 W maximum system power[3] | 700 W rated[5] |
| Firmware & Openness | ||
| Firmware base & current version (Klipper fork / Marlin fork / proprietary) | Not named. File formats accepted are .ctb and .prz[1][3] | Not documented |
| Connectivity, UI & Camera | ||
| Display: size, type, touch? | 5-inch touch panel (control panel — not the masking LCD, see W1)[1][3] | Not documented |
| WiFi (band/standard), Ethernet, USB ports, SD/flash-drive | USB and Wi-Fi[1][3] | Wi-Fi, LAN, USB flash drive[4][5] |
| Materials Support | ||
| Officially supported filament list | 405 nm photopolymer resin; no closed compatibility list published[1] | Carbon fibre, nylon, PETG, TPU, PC, ABS, PLA[5] |
| Resin & MSLA | ||
| Masking LCD | 10.1-inch 14K monochrome masking LCD, 13,320 x 5,120 px, XY pixel pitch 16.8 x 24.8 um per Phrozen (3DJake writes 16.8 x 24 um)[3][1] | Not documented |
| Light source | Linear projection LED module. Wavelength not published[3] | Not documented |
| Layer height range | 0.01-0.30 mm[3] | Not documented |
| Release film | nFEP film supplied. No rated life published[1][3] | Not documented |
| Resin vat & feeding | Built-in resin heater fitted; Phrozen publishes no setpoint, no vat capacity, no auto-refill and no level sensing for this model[1][3] | Not documented |
| Fume extraction | Plug-in air purifier supplied with the machine[1] | Not documented |
| Throughputlayers/h | Avg. 450 layers/h on Phrozen's own product page — the only throughput figure Phrozen publishes for this model, and it publishes no mm/h at all. 3DJake states 400 layers/h for the same machine; Phrozen's own figure is used here, as elsewhere in this entry. Manufacturer claim, not a measurement, and neither source states the layer height assumed. W4 is deliberately empty: the layer range is 0.01-0.30 mm, so any mm/h conversion would be invented rather than measured[3][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.
