| Property | Phrozen Sonic Mini 8K SRESIN | Sovol SV07BEDSLINGER |
|---|---|---|
| Identity | ||
| Brand | Phrozen | Sovol |
| Class | RESIN | BEDSLINGER |
| Identity & Market | ||
| Manufacturer & exact marketed model name (verify the exact product identity first) | Phrozen Sonic Mini 8K S 7.1" LCD 3D Printer. Manufacturer number 51010040501102[1][2][3] | Sovol SV07[4][5] |
| Street price (USD; dated snapshot per entry) | $270.00 on us.phrozen3d.com, backordered with an end-of-September ETA, checked Aug 2026. The collection page rendered it as unavailable on the same day[3][2] | $299 at 3D Printers Online Store but Out of Stock, checked Aug 2026. Sovol's own comparison article quotes $259. No in-stock listing found[5][6] |
| Variants & sibling models — and how to tell them apart (spec-contamination risk) | Phrozen's 7.1-inch line is easy to confuse: the Sonic Mini 8K S ($270) sits beside the older Sonic Mini 8K ($340, sold out) and the 5.5-inch Sonic Mini ($129.99). The 10.1-inch Sonic Mighty family is a different size class entirely. The 8K S is the only one of the group with a single linear rail and a lead screw rather than a ball screw[2][1][3][7] | Base of a two-model pair with the SV07 Plus (300x300x350, 600 W MeanWell PSU, 25-point levelling, adds USB Type-C). The SV07 has a 350 W MeanWell PSU. Both are quoted by Sovol at 500 mm/s and 300 °C, so PSU wattage and build volume are the reliable discriminators[6][5][8] |
| Market position: superseded? successor announced? | Not documented | Delisted by Sovol; not present in the current 3D-printer collection. 3DJake shows it sold out and no longer stocked[9][4] |
| Physical & Frame | ||
| Build volume X×Y×Z (mm) — advertised vs actually usable | 165 x 72 x 170 mm[1][3] | 220 x 220 x 250 mm advertised[4][5] |
| Machine footprint (mm) & clearance needed (cable/spool overhang) | 290 x 290 x 430 mm[1][3] | 460 x 457 x 625 mm[5] |
| Net weight (kg) | 10 kg[1][3] | 9.8 kg machine weight; 12.9 kg boxed[5] |
| Frame construction & material | Black textured housing with a neon-green plastic cover[1] | Open frame, supplied as an assembly kit[4] |
| Enclosure: open / enclosed; panel material; door/lid | Open-frame MSLA with a UV-blocking plastic cover[1] | Open frame; 3DJake records "Heated chamber: No"[4] |
| Kinematics & Motion Hardware | ||
| Kinematics (bedslinger i3 / CoreXY / other) | MSLA, single Z axis on one linear rail with a lead screw, straight-lift peel[1][3] | Cartesian i3 bedslinger[4] |
| X-axis guide type (rods / linear rails / V-wheels; size) | One linear rail; lead screw (not a ball screw)[1][3] | Not documented |
| Speed & Acceleration | ||
| Max print speed (claimed, mm/s) | Not documented | Conflicting manufacturer figures: Sovol's own comparison says up to 500 mm/s, 3DJake's feature text says up to 250 mm/s, and the retailer listing gives a 250-500 mm/s range. 500 is the headline claim, 250 the working figure[6][4][5] |
| Extruder | ||
| Type (direct drive / bowden) & design name | Not documented | All-metal dual-gear direct drive with a planetary gearbox[4][6] |
| Hotend & Nozzle | ||
| Hotend design (proprietary/standard; quick-swap mechanism?) | Not documented | All-metal hotend to 300 °C[4][6] |
| Max nozzle temp claimed AND firmware max temp limit (both values) | Not documented | <=300 °C claimed[4][5][6] |
| Heated Bed & Surface | ||
| Max bed temp claimed AND firmware limit | Not documented | <=100 °C claimed[5] |
| Bed surface (material, texture, coating), single/double-sided | Not documented | Reversible PEI build plate[4] |
| Leveling & Z-Offset | ||
| Auto bed leveling: probe technology (inductive / strain gauge / load cell / touch probe) | Not documented | Automatic bed levelling over 25 points; probe technology not stated[4] |
| Mesh grid size (probe point count — firmware evidence) | Not documented | 25 points (manufacturer claim)[4] |
| Cooling & Air Handling | ||
| Part-cooling fan(s): count, size, ducting design | Not documented | Triple-fan cooling (Sovol's description; fan sizes and duct design not published)[4][6] |
| Electronics & Power | ||
| PSU (brand, wattage, rail voltage) | Not documented | 350 W MeanWell, 24 V, 115/230 V AC input[6][5] |
| Input voltage (110/220 V, switch or auto) | 24 V DC, 2 A[3] | Not documented |
| Total rated power draw | 48 W maximum system power[3] | Not documented |
| Firmware & Openness | ||
| Firmware base & current version (Klipper fork / Marlin fork / proprietary) | Not named by Phrozen. Native file format .PRZ; compatible slicers CHITUBOX, Lychee and VoxelDance Tango[1][3] | Klipper[4][6] |
| Connectivity, UI & Camera | ||
| Display: size, type, touch? | 3.5-inch touch panel (control panel — not the masking LCD, see W1)[3] | 5-inch touchscreen (Sovol markets it as a "5-inch HD Klipper screen")[4][6] |
| WiFi (band/standard), Ethernet, USB ports, SD/flash-drive | USB only[1][3] | Wi-Fi and USB Type-C[4][6][5] |
| Materials Support | ||
| Officially supported filament list | 405 nm photopolymer resin; no closed compatibility list published[1] | PLA, PETG, TPU, ABS, wood-filled; Sovol also lists carbon fibre[5][6] |
| Resin & MSLA | ||
| Masking LCD | 7.1-inch 8K monochrome masking LCD, XY pixel pitch 22 um. Phrozen does not publish the pixel count for this model[1][3] | Not documented |
| Light source | Linear projection LED module. Wavelength not published for this model[1][3] | Not documented |
| Vertical print speedmm/h | Max 80 mm/h (manufacturer claim). Phrozen does not state the layer height or resin type the figure assumes[3] | Not documented |
| Layer height range | 0.01-0.30 mm[3] | Not documented |
| Release film | FEP film — note this is plain FEP, whereas the Sonic Mighty Revo 14K ships nFEP. No rated life published[3][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.
