| 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] | VzBoT AWD 330, also written Vz330. Sold as "DIY VzBoT AWD 330 VZ330 3D Printer Kit" by Mellow[4] |
| 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] | $1,360.00 at Mellow, available and shipping from China, checked Aug 2026[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] | Ordered by colour (black or silver) and mains voltage (110 V or 220 V). Mellow describes the kit as a test version that still requires the buyer to print some components, and the 5-inch DSI screen requires a host computer that supports DSI — neither is included[4] |
| Physical & Frame | ||
| Build volume X×Y×Z (mm) — advertised vs actually usable | 223 x 126 x 235 mm[1][3] | 330 x 330 x 400 mm[4] |
| 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] | 530 x 500 x 720 mm body dimensions[4] |
| Net weight (kg) | 18 kg[3] | 31 kg net, 36 kg gross[4] |
| Frame construction & material | Not documented | CNC-machined all-metal frame with carbon-rod components[4] |
| Enclosure: open / enclosed; panel material; door/lid | Open-frame MSLA with a UV-blocking cover[1] | Not documented |
| 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] | CoreXY in an AWD (all-wheel drive) arrangement — two motors on X and two on Y, four in total for the XY plane, each on its own external driver[4] |
| X-axis guide type (rods / linear rails / V-wheels; size) | Not documented | LDO 9 mm rail on X; LDO 12 mm dual rails on Y; 10 mm optical shafts on Z[4] |
| Z-axis: leadscrew count & type, sync mechanism, anti-backlash | Dual linear guide rails with a ball screw[1][3] | Not documented |
| Stepper drivers (exact model e.g. TMC2209; UART/SPI; sensorless homing?) | Not documented | Four external TMC5160 drivers for the LDO XY motors[4] |
| Extruder | ||
| Type (direct drive / bowden) & design name | Not documented | Lightweight all-metal direct drive with a twill drive wheel[4] |
| Hotend & Nozzle | ||
| Hotend design (proprietary/standard; quick-swap mechanism?) | Not documented | VZ High Speed hotend[4] |
| Heated Bed & Surface | ||
| Max bed temp claimed AND firmware limit | Not documented | 120 °C maximum bed temperature (manufacturer claim)[4] |
| Bed heater type (DC/AC mains) & wattage | Not documented | 750 W silicone bed heater on an 8 mm aluminium plate[4] |
| Bed surface (material, texture, coating), single/double-sided | Not documented | 8 mm aluminium plate with a magnetic spring-steel PEI-coated sheet[4] |
| Leveling & Z-Offset | ||
| Auto bed leveling: probe technology (inductive / strain gauge / load cell / touch probe) | Automatic levelling[1] | Not documented |
| Electronics & Power | ||
| Mainboard model & MCU (exact chip markings if teardowns exist) | Not documented | 32-bit mainboard, quoted by Mellow at 550 Hz. Exact board model not named on the listing[4] |
| Input voltage (110/220 V, switch or auto) | AC 100-240 V, 50/60 Hz[3] | Not documented |
| Total rated power draw | 240 W maximum system power[3] | Not documented |
| Firmware & Openness | ||
| Firmware base & current version (Klipper fork / Marlin fork / proprietary) | Not named. File formats accepted are .ctb and .prz[1][3] | Klipper or RepRapFirmware[4] |
| Connectivity, UI & Camera | ||
| Display: size, type, touch? | 5-inch touch panel (control panel — not the masking LCD, see W1)[1][3] | 5-inch DSI display; requires a compatible host computer, which is not included[4] |
| WiFi (band/standard), Ethernet, USB ports, SD/flash-drive | USB and Wi-Fi[1][3] | Not documented |
| Calibration Routines & QoL | ||
| Assembly level & time from unbox to first print | Not documented | Self-assembly kit; some parts must be printed by the buyer[4] |
| Materials Support | ||
| Officially supported filament list | 405 nm photopolymer resin; no closed compatibility list published[1] | Not documented |
| 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.
